About Us
OUR STORY
“Feed your skin with nature’s elements”
Our luxury soaps are created using a “cold-process” technique where the soap is left exposed to air for 6-8 weeks to allow for saponification (explained below), letting all remaining water and lye to evaporate - no lye remains in the soap when ready for use. The base of our soaps consist of one or both 100% organic oils: organic cold pressed extra virgin olive oil & organic coconut oil to nourish, cleanse and hydrate your skin. Each batch is handmade and unique! The skin is our body’s largest organ and our first line of defense to many pathogens and harmful particles - so why not strengthen, pamper and protect it? Our soaps have been carefully hand crafted with organic, natural & ethnically sourced ingredients, focusing on the overall health benefits for the mind, body & planet.
All of our products are cruelty free, NO animal testing, palm oil free, plastic free, fragrance free, surfactant free, paraben free & sulphate free. Striving to reduce our carbon imprint on Earth and create environment friendly products
Inspired by the surrounding natural beauty of the west coast where the mountains meet the ocean, made in the heart of Kitsilano Vancouver, British Columbia
HOW IS SOAP MADE?
Saponification is the process in which soap is made - when fat/oils react with lye, 2 products are created: soap and glycerin (draws moisture into your skin). In our soaps, we use only organic vegetable fats which react with our base sodium hydroxide. When the two ingredients are mixed together, heat is produced and the two react together to create soap - this process occurs over a 4 week period with the end result containing NO sodium hydroxide or lye product.
CARING FOR YOUR SOAP
-
To extend the lifespan of your soap, remove it from sitting in pooled water - for best results, place soap on a dish with drainage holes to allow proper air flow
-
Storage of your soap should be at room temperature or cooler, away from the sun to avoid softening
