Oh yeah!

According to the FDA, most "soap" and body wash sold in stores isn't actually soap but rather a synthetic detergent. Really...

Our soaps are crafted the old-fashioned way. Using a traditional cold-process method, we mix natural oils and butters with lye to create a safe and cleansing soap bar. No synthetic detergent here!

This phrase is commonly used in the skincare industry; so let's chat about it!

All our soaps are crafted using natural base oils like olive oil, coconut oil, shea butter, cocoa butter, and tallow. We refrain from using synthetic detergents, fillers, or preservatives. Our soaps are free from artificial dyes, relying solely on herbs, botanicals, and clays for coloration. For scent, we include essential oils as well as phthalate and paraben-free fragrance oils.

Why do we opt for fragrance oils in some soaps? Well, not all essential oils are equal in terms of environmental considerations during production and use.

For example: to create one pound of essential oil, producers can use up to 10,000 pounds of rose petals, 250 pounds of lavender plant, over 1,000 pounds of sandalwood heartwood, 1,500 lemons, etc. Woah!

To minimize the ecological impact of essential oils, we strive to choose products from sustainable sources who support ethical harvesting practices, uphold transparency in their supply chain, and honor environmental stewardship. When ethical sourcing isn't possible or when the scent cannot be sustainably created from essential oils, we opt to use paraben and phthalate-free fragrance oils that are handmade in the USA.

No way.

We meticulously research our ingredients to guarantee their quality. For products that include fragrance, rest assured they are free from phthalates and parabens. What's more, our fragrance and essential oils are sourced exclusively from reliable American suppliers. When possible, we aim to use ingredients that are locally made in the USA!

We sure do!

More than half our soaps are plant-based or vegan. Ensure to read each individual ingredient list to verify the product is the one for you. We have also included icons on each product page to help guide your purchase.

We truly are a company rooted in science and inspired by adventure. Our commitment to quality enables us to deliver products that meet the highest safety and efficacy standards, ensuring customer trust and satisfaction.

This means:

• Recipes are thoroughly researched, developed, and tested
• We adhere to scientific protocols for safe production
• Equipment and workspaces are meticulously sanitized
• Goods are handled and stored using hygienic standards
• Your products are packaged using materials specifically engineered to withstand transportation

Due to the handmade nature of our products, slight variations in color, texture, and shape may occur in your final bar.

We suggest using your bar soap within 3 months of purchase for optimal freshness. If you choose to use your soap beyond this period, you may notice slight discoloration and a reduction in scent.

We want you to get the most out of our products. Some ways to extend the life of your soap include:

1. Using a soap saver bag or soap dish
2. Letting your soap dry between uses. Be sure to keep your soap out of the direct stream of water.
3. Cutting your soap into smaller slabs and using a little at a time. A kitchen knife should do the trick!

Great question!

Our soap is biodegradable, making it a better choice for outdoor use compared to conventional soaps that may contain synthetic detergents which can be harmful to nature.

While our soap is designed to be environmentally friendly, it’s still important to follow Leave No Trace principles. This means washing at least 200 feet away from streams or lakes and using only small amounts of biodegradable soap, like Stoked Suds! We recommend using our Ultralight unscented bar to minimize scent but maximize your clean.

This product is for external use only. Our soaps are not intended to treat, diagnose, cure, or prevent any medical conditions. Please consult with your doctor prior to using any products containing essential oils if pregnant, nursing, or diagnosed with a chronic medical condition.
