about us

In January of 2024 I purchased a beloved soapery on Pender Island and began my adventure in soap making.  I am grateful to Rope Road Studios for their masterfully crafted formulas for soap and shampoo bars. I make soap using the cold process method in small batches.  Ingredients are plant-based, gentle and nourishing for the skin and hair. An important goal is to choose sustainable, biodegradable packaging and environmentally conscious ingredients. 

Collecting plants and ocean water for soap making is a joyful, conscious reminder of our connection to nature and it's healing properties.  Seawater and seasalt are two of my favorite soap ingredients that are all natural and create a hydrating, long lasting soap bar.  Plant infused oils are anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory and contain anti-oxidants and other properties that soothe and replenish the skin.

Indigo, Alkanet root, Spirulina, Himalayan rhubarb, Turmeric, Annato, botanicals, and earthen coloured clays add natural colour and beauty to each bar.  Activated bamboo charcoal and rose clay are purifying.  Essential oils provide aromatherapy for soothing and supporting the nervous system.

My lifelong love of making pottery has blended well with the craft of soap making.  When I'm not keeping pace with the exciting lives of our two teenagers, I love to dream up new soaps, learn more about plants, and spend time in the pottery studio.   -Laura

What customers are saying:

"We have received the package, and I wanted to say my husband and I LOVE your products! Such a wonderful concoction of essential oils,and just overall really well-made with evident high-quality ingredients. The soap dish is also incredibly functional and beautiful. Thank you so so much, we will be ordering more for sure :)"  V.H.

"One thing your customers should know, besides how great your soap is, is that the soap dishes you make are the best. THE BEST! because the design allows for so much air around the soap, it has the chance to dry properly, making the bar last longer. No gooey soap with your soap dishes!  I keep buying them and giving them away but the last one I am keeping for myself...It's fabulous!!!"   O.K.

"I've bought your soap before and just finished my second bar.  It's the best I've found for natural soap! Can't wait to try the shampoo and conditioner bar."  T.H.

"Love Laura's soaps! Beautifully crafted from natural ingredients." Y.M.

"Best shampoo I have ever used.  I am so glad you took over."  S.P.
