ALL ABOUT US

Growing up, we watched our creative parents make all sorts of crafts to support local charities. 

It was this influence that gave us the courage to pick up soap making supplies instead of a puzzle during the

2020 global quarantine!

Initially, we used our hobby to stay connected with others and gave away our creations as gifts. Soon, thanks to the encouragement of many friends and family, we turned our hobby into a business.

 

When we opened our Etsy store in 2020, we sold out of everything in 24 hours! This continued during our first year of business and we eventually shipped and sold product to over 2000 customers from 48 of the 50 United States and three countries! 

 

We have, since then, shipped to all 50 United States, expanded into local markets, custom orders, and now a store front on

208 N. LBJ in San Marcos, TX.

Our Ingredients

You'll find the ingredient list under each listing and on the back of all products. 

Responsibly

Sourced & Sustainable

Plant Oils

Pure olive oil, extra-virgin coconut oil, unrefined shea butter,  cocoa butter, palm oil, jojoba oil, argan oil, pecan oil and castor oil

Organic Bees Wax and Raw Honey

Bees wax solidifies our solid moisturizers and contributes to hardness and lather in soap.

Honey  also yields a golden color. 

Natural Colorants

Our soaps are tinted with roots, seeds, clays, spices and leaves.

Sometimes we use coffee, tea and aloe to contribute to the color of the bar. All colorants we select in the craftsmanship of your soap have believed skin-loving benefits.

Essential Oils and Skin Safe Fragrance Oils

Our essential oils are derived from plants or tree resins and are distilled for soap making.

 

Our fragrance oils are derived from aroma compounds like essential oils, extracts and/or resins. They are vegan, paraben and phthalate free.

 

We follow approved usage rates for essential and fragrance oils based on International Fragrance Association (IFRA) standards.

 

Please message us with your questions. We are able to share safety data sheets and alllergen testing results with all of our scents.

What does Responsibly Sourced & Sustainable Mean?

Fully Traceable

We source from transparent suppliers where traceability is vital to safeguard deforestation and exploitation-free ingredients. Certain documentation are easily accessible like safety data sheets, composition, ingredients, allergen statements, nutritional facts and country of origin.

Deforestation Free

We source from suppliers with strict policies that commit to strict forest conservation policies which prohibit the conversion of primary and secondary forests into production areas, tree plantations or other degenerating land uses. 

Wildlife Friendly

We support suppliers who train farmers to manage their plantations and surrounding conservation areas such that animals will continue to thrive, and species diversity is secure. 

Conserving fauna and flora ensure ecological balance and long-term planet stability. 

Fair and Social

We partner with organizations who  provide economic and social benefits to growers, workers and communities where they operate. This means respecting their rights and paying fair prices and wages.
