Noix de Coco Soap was inspired by our LOVE of coconut. The recipe contains a mix of organic coconut milk (in place of water), sweet almond oil, rice bran oil, sustainably-harvested palm oil, canola oil, shea butter, and coconut essential oil.

The mix of these oils is essential, because soaps that are ONLY comprised of coconut oil can actually dry the skin. The cleansing properties of this soap are incredible…so much that we also use it for a shampoo! The warm coconut smell from this soap is just another reason to love it.

The shea butter, canola and rice bran oil give this soap a fantastic lather, and its very rich in vitamin E. The sweet almond oil creates a wonderful texture and contributes to the moisturizing properties. The coconut oil is the main driver in the cleansing properties of this soap. The coconut milk in this soap helps with dry skin/scalp. The fatty acids in the coconut milk create a smooth, creamy bar of soap.

Overall, while one of our most recent soaps, this is our personal favorite!

Oatmeal and honey may be the most popular soap that is crafted by millions of do-it-yourself soap makers. So what makes ours different? We add Vitamin E to ours to help with numerous skin conditions, including eczema, psoriasis, allergic reactions and itching caused by dry skin. We use top-shelf all-natural organic honey, alongside our organic and sustainably harvested oils to create a wonderful smelling bar of soap!

This soap is not edible! We feel funny to have to say that, but at least one of our customers has taken a bite of this soap. We do not recommend that.

Aside from the oatmeal, honey and vitamin E, we also use sweet almond oil in our Mon Chéri recipe, which helps treat dry skin, helps with sun burns, and improves acne!

Overall, our oatmeal honey variation is a great twist on a very popular soap that will leave your skin feeling moisturized, clean and refreshed!

Le Calme was our first soap, inspired by the fresh offerings of the Pacific Northwest.  “Calme” is a French word meaning “calm, peace, quiet”.

The way this soap smells and leaves your skin feeling fresh and moisturized is really amazing.  The soap can be used as a full-body shower soap or a facial cleanser. The subtle accents of bergamot, rosemary and lavender create a perfect cleansing aroma to relax and rejuvenate.  Here is a quick summary of the ingredients in this soap and why they work so well together:

Coconut Oil. Coconut oil is a natural cleanser and bubble producer in our soaps. We keep the levels of this oil lower, because its natural cleaning abilities can leave the skin feeling dry. The coconut oil helps balance out this soap and provide a wonderful cleaning effect to the moisturizing.

Canola Oil
Canola oil gives this soap it’s great creamy lather. The oil also is a natural moisturizer.

RSPO Palm Oil and Palm Kernal Flakes. We only use sustainably harvested palm oil and palm oil flakes, and this recipe has both. Both contribute to the lather and hardness of the soap bar.

Bergamot Essential Oil
Bergamot essential oil is a citrus scent with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. This essential oil is effective for treating acne and sensitive skin.

Dried Lavender
The dried lavender adds a gentle exfoliating element, as well as a natural aroma for relaxation. Lavender can help reduce wrinkles and lessen acne.

Dried Rosemary
Rosemary can help with blemishes and improves complexion. We use dried rosemary and grind it into fine elements to add color, texture and aroma.

Combined, these ingredients create a great healing soap that can help with blemishes, sensitive skin, and provide a natural aromatherapy in your daily routine!
