All of our products are handcrafted in small batches using clean, premium ingredients. Our soaps feature goat milk, triple butters (shea, cocoa, mango), colloidal oatmeal, honey, and ground loofah. Our candles are made with a coconut–soy wax blend and high-quality fragrance oils. We avoid harsh chemicals, parabens, and sulfates.
