Did you know!?

Soap Myth: Lye soap is dangerous because of lye.
Truth: While lye (sodium hydroxide) is caustic in its raw form, the saponification process uses all the lye, leaving none in the finished soap. Our artisan soaps are safe, gentle, and often better for your skin than commercial options packed with synthetic chemicals.
