Palm trees. Another post about sustainable palm oil? or is JP taking a few well-deserved days off? I'm not telling. .

We're not sure what happened to this pic, but it's kinda cool, right? Here's JP getting soaps ready to cure, after cutting them into bars. Olive Oil Soaps are nourishing & moisturizing, and use pure Sonoma olive oil & pure essential oils, as well as other vegetable-based additions (like bamboo charcoal or pink clay)! .

Seen in the wild. We love supporting local businesses, and we're thrilled that this local business - Foodhall on the corner - supports us by carrying our lip balms at the cash register.

Happy Spring! We've been having a spring fling here at the studio recently, going from Passover to Easter, and posting about holidays. Spring also makes me think of baby animals, especially goats! Our popular Moisturizing Soaps happen to use goat's milk - coincidence? Goat milk has been shown to be better for humans to drink, AND it's great as a healthy ingredient in our skincare. Its bioactive compounds help other ingredients be used more efficiently, too. (Goats also create... a smaller carbon footprint than cows). . Goat's milk: yea or nay? (or baaaa?) . . . #bodycareproducts #bodycareroutine #handsoap #liquidhandsoap #soapsofinstagram #soapmakersofinstagram #naturalbodycareproducts #naturalbodycare #naturalsoap #fragrancefree #allnatural #sfbayarea #bodycare #natural #charcoalsoap #oliveoilsoap #soapnatural #goatsmilk #goatsmilksoap #babygoats #kidssaythedarnedestthings #allnatural #springhassprung #springfling #orangesweater #sfbayarea #sfmade #bayareamade #happyspring #ipreview via @preview.app See more

Just JP casually posing next to our store shelves. Have you visited Acacia, our Valencia St shop yet? We share our storefront with the lovely Acacia, with its beautifully curated home décor. The Valencia Corridor is a highlight of SF's cool Mission District, and we're proud to be part of the longest stretch of independent retailers in the US - no chain stores for 2 miles. When we're all able to travel freely again, come visit us! .

You know what this is? It doesn't even matter what this leaf is called - it's just a beautiful image. I'm reminded of the great temporal pieces created by Andy Goldsworthy. I love that there is order created from randomness, but that - at any moment - it could all blow away. .

As a follow-up to our last post (some might say this one should've been posted first): here's JP at the soap cutting machine. Once the soap is unmolded (after about 24 hrs), it's put into this contraption, and the evenly-spaced guitar strings do the work. We'll be posting videos of this process soon. . Do folks really enjoy behind-the-scenes stuff like this? I hope so, since there's more coming! . .... . #bodycareproducts #bodycareroutine #handsoap #liquidhandsoap #soapsofinstagram #soapmakersofinstagram See more

If you've been catching our Stories lately, you'll see JP in our Sonoma workshop, making soaps & candles. Here he is, with a batch of freshly cut soaps, just a day after they were created & molded. They need a day to harden in order to be cut properly, but then they need another 4-6 weeks to cure for your use at home. .

Little soap samples lined up, being packaged as giveaways in our outbound packages... Happy to be working at the studio with our other worker bees. We try to have samples on hand for special requests, or just as a Thank You to enclose with online orders. These would make great travel "amenity" soaps - we're hopeful that travelers will be back at it again sometime soon! .

Halloween in next week. Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Then you-know-what... Think about customizing a gift for loved ones during these uncertain (and isolating) times.

The best ingredients for your skin are the same ones you can eat. Healthy skin = healthy within. I recommend this delightful moisturizer often - before we developed our serums, this was my favorite product. Neroli is anti-inflammatory & anti-redness & smells great. Olive Leaf is an emollient & adds richness to the formula Feel healthy & stay hydrated. .

We know that many of you are upset with the way palm oil is being harvested in many parts of the world, damaging ecosystems and harming animals - we are, too! We're proud to source our palm oil only from producers certified by the Round Table on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), which promotes the use of sustainable palm oil for People, Planet, and Prosperity. .
