Hello, my name is Kara Needham. I starting making and selling soap in 2012, my own olive, sunflower, and coconut oil basic soap recipe that I made for many years. I do all the artwork for my business (which is favourite part;) and originally I painted little scenes for each town near where I live in the Eastern Townships of Quebec and had countless little labels made for each scent, of which I had far too many!! In 2014 I tried making sea salt soap for the first time at the request of my then husband for his very greasy, dirty mechanic hands. It was a much trickier soap to make but it worked very, very well. That recipe has slowly evolved over the years into my own unique creation that I'm very proud of. Not only is it used by people like mechanics and gardeners to help get grease and dirt off their hands, and teenagers with acne prone skin, but it is also used by people who claim to have the most delicate, sensitive aging skin and now refuse to wash their face with anything else!
In early 2019 I decided to stop making my regular basic soap and fully concentrate on the sea salt soap. My soap can be found at quite a few stores, boutiques and art galleries in the Eastern Townships and now you can find me online here at Etsy! I also hope to have an artwork page on here soon too!
