5 out of 5 starsThis product was recommended by one of my friends and I am so happy he put me on to these soaps! Just the name, scent & appearances were enough to make me purchase but I will continue to buy because the quality is simply undeniable. I can’t wait to buy more and try the other scents when come back into stock!

5 out of 5 starsReally loved the scent and quality. FYI, would not recommend as a hand soap (especially on a white soap dish) because of the soap's natural gray-black colorization (had to clean my soap dish more frequently than usual for visual purposes). Also, please note that the use of any light-colored towels, like for face-washing, paired with this soap may result in staining the cloth.

3 out of 5 starsThe black dye on this soap was a little alarming -- why dye it black? The black dye runs off of the soap. Why not keep the soap its natural color?

I really appreciate this feedback. The soap is colored with natural mica, which is skin-safe. That said, this feedback really resonated with me. My ultimate goal is to make the best bar of soap I can, and I totally love your idea of moving towards the natural color for this recipe, so here's what I'm thinking... Instead of going with a 50% black, 50% white bar, I would opt for a 95% natural bar with a very subtle 5% swirl of color to ensure this recipe's aesthetic still has some representation. I'd like to share the first bar from my next batch with you, and get your thoughts. This is why I do this - I love feedback like this, as it is so helpful - and your feedback completely clicked with me as being valid and insightful. Thanks again; I'll follow up with you directly on the new recipe idea :)

5 out of 5 starsThis is definitely one of my favorites. I love the scent of the Emerson Reserve, so crisp and clean. The bar is beautiful in the soap dish, lathers well and is not drying to my skin. I am a repeat customer and will be back for more. The shipping is fast, packaging is done beautifully and Ryan is great to work with. He answers all questions very quickly.

5 out of 5 starsThis soap is so pretty, but it also is a hard working bar. It lathers well and leaves my skin feeling amazing. The scent is wonderful and just right. The bars are large and last a long time. I am a repeat customer because I love the soap, Ryan is fast to respond to all my questions and my order is delivered really fast and wrapped beautifully.

5 out of 5 starsWho doesn't like a hint of grapefruit to freshen up with. The subtle scent is just perfect and the soap lathers so well. My package was shipped fast and packaged so well and his label was a cool touch. I will be back for more.

Owner, Advisor
For us, soapmaking is a way to hold on to the enchantment of nature. Simpler times may seem lost, but we've discovered that through soap, there is always a way back home.

Frequently asked questions
Wholesale availability
I am happy to consider wholesale opportunities. Send me a conversation and let's talk about it!
Sustainable palm oil
In keeping with our social and ethical responsibility goals, our Palm oil supplier is a member of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), an organization that supports sustainable palm oil production.
White/Private Labeling?
We currently do not offer any white or private labeling for any of our soaps. We are a small operation, focused on small artisanal batches and seek to remain true to that spirit.
Do your soaps have a strong scent?
We like to say that our soaps have a subtle and well balanced scent. We never (gasp!) use fragrance oils so the smell of the soap is entirely based on the essentials oils used in each recipe. :)
