It had been a custom for us to take a creative class every fall together, such as pottery, painting or other art projects. In 2013 we chose soap making. Everything started with taking this class. After supplying their family and friends with a lifelong supply of soaps and candles and receiving awesome feedback about their products, Karin and Jason decided to go and think bigger.

They created Hirschbar in 2014 and started selling their products online, in local retail shops, at farmers markets and arts & crafts shows.

With corporate backgrounds in IT and Industrial Design the development of new products was a familiar business venture for us with unexpected fun and creativity, especially doing it together. Karin’s background also involves Feng Shui and Shamanic Healing and the connection was made between new products, the power of perception through our senses & higher self and beneficial energy.

The important goal for us is to create sustainable products that uplift the senses, contain only natural elements that vibrate on a high level and offer products that are blessed with abundant positive energy, such as their Chakra candles, Shamanic candles, TCM 5 element soaps and Chakra soaps. When you are surrounded with positive vibrations you will elevate your own frequency.

Hirschbar only uses natural and sustainable oils, butters and waxes. Their collected knowledge about essential oils and herbs also assist them in creating the most balanced and enjoyable products.
