Alternative to liquid soap in plastic containers.

Handmade from scratch in small batches using skin-loving, food-grade vegetable oils, pure essential oil blends, and all-natural additives, these soaps gently cleanse while nourishing, moisturizing, repairing, and rebalancing the skin. Made using the cold-process method, all the glycerin that forms naturally during the soap-making process remains in the soap.

They adamantly believe that skincare products are no place for chemicals, lathering agents, synthetic derivatives, preservatives, parabens, sodium lauryl sulfate, fragrance oils, mineral ores, or micas. They never use animal fats -- all of the following products (except Call Me Honey) are vegan and gluten-free.


Calendula Sun:

Calendula heals abrasions, moisturizes, reduces scarring, and soothes inflammations and chapped skin. This soap combines an infusion of organic calendula with quenching base oils and a skin-rebalancing and rejuvenating essential oil blend of geranium, sweet orange, and clove. The result is a sun-burst of healing energy that soothes, heals, and rebalances dry and damaged skin.


Camaccino:

Skin brightening goodness. Loaded with freshly brewed organic coffee and scented with richly warming, spirit-uplifting essential oils of cinnamon, myrrh, balsam peru, sweet orange, and cardamom, this soap is topped with a creamy layer of soap with kaolin clay added.  Coffee helps to brighten the skin as the acids remove dead skin cells that dull the skin. It also helps to prevent clogged pores, soften lines, and is an anti-inflammatory that exfoliates and smooths the skin.

Chamomile Rose Hip: 
A superlatively moisturizing bar. Rose hip seeds come from rose hips, the fleshy, red fruit of the rose plant. This oil is a powerhouse of goodness for the skin. Containing vitamins A and E and high in essential fatty acids, linoleic, and linolenic acids, it is a powerful skin regenerator and rejuvenator. It helps prevent aging of the skin, minimizes scarring and works, along with chamomile, to decrease inflammatory conditions and soothe the skin. Our rose and geranium essential oil blend works in tandem with the chamomile and rose hip seed oil to bring a bloom to the skin, rebalancing and nourishing. Rose and geranium essential oils also bring a bloom to the psyche, lessening feelings of stress and depression, and working their gentle magic to ease and open the heart chakra.


 

Elation (Oh Joy!): 

Super-fatted with a generous amount of avocado oil for dry and depleted skin, this nourishing, replenishing soap is scented with an essential oil blend of clary sage, lavender, sweet orange, and geranium. Essential oils help to rebalance the skin, and to uplift, relate, and lighten the spirit.

GoBo Acne Away: 
To help combat the occasional flare-up of acne, Camamu formulated a soap imbued with every pimple-fighting ingredient they could think of. Starting with an infusion of organic burdock root, a strong anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory effective against acne and eczema. Green and kaolin clay are added to help absorb surface oils while deeply cleaning and refining the pores. To top it off, this essential oil blend features basil, a potent anti-bacterial and anti-viral that helps to tone the skin and combat acne while calming the mind and bringing cheer to the heart. Also used by spas for use before and after hair removal - its formulation, along with combating pimples, is also helpful in preventing folliculitis.

Happy Camper: 
This is an ideal outdoors camping and fishing soap — it keeps your skin moisturized and smooth, has anti-septic and anti-insecticide properties, and anise allegedly helps remove human scent from fly-tying, hook-baiting fingers.

Man Cave: 

A soap inspired by nature: cool, like a mossy river rock, and a deep green forest after a refreshing Spring rain. 

A moisturizing, sudsy soap with a mesmerizing aroma of vetiver, cedarwood, clary sage, Amyris sandalwood, cypress, sage, and black paper. It is fresh, deep cleanses your pores, and clears your mind.



See the Forest: 
Scented with a blend of earthy and grounding essential oils - cedar, fir, vetiver, and patchouli - this soap helps to calm and center, like a walk deep in one of the Pacific Northwest's profound, old-growth forests. Organic walnut husk powder is rich in tannins and can help heal mild cases of eczema and dermatitis while the addition of green clay is useful in absorbing surface oils. Recommended for people with normal to oily skin, those with eczema, and those who have wandered too far from their soul's home. Can also work well on the face.


Stress Less: 
Each bar an oasis of aromatherapeutic tranquility, blends stress-reducing, calming essential oils with moisturizing and nourishing base oils to produce serenity inside and out. Lavender and clary sage essential oils are renowned for their ability to reduce tension, support relaxation, and induce feelings of elation.


Turmeric Tonic: 
Turmeric Tonic Soap incorporates an abundance of organic turmeric powder to create this profoundly therapeutic soap. Antiseptic, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory, this potent soap is useful against skin blemishes, fungal infections, and dermatitis while helping to remove dead skin cells. The addition of anti-microbial tea tree and turmeric essential oils boosts this soap's therapeutics. Can also work well on the face.
Queen Bee: 
Best for: Normal to Dry and Sensitive Skin, and the cold seasons. Give yourself the royal treatment with our Queen Bee Soap, crafted to deeply pamper and nourish dry or sensitive skin. Infused with Organic Calendula and Marshmallow Root for soothing and emollient care, this soap helps your skin feel soft and refreshed. Rich in Honey, Shea Butter, Rosehip Seed Oil, and Borage Seed Oil, it delivers intense moisture to rejuvenate and revitalize your skin.
