Natural soaps, facial masks, & herbal salves to nourish your face.
Create a healthy complexion with natural facial products.
Facial skin is sensitive and needs special treatment and nourishment compared to other parts of the body. It's more delicate than the rest of your body and needs some TLC to keep it worthy of your glorious smile.
Cleanse without drying with a natural soap formulated to nourish your precious facial skin.
Pure Oatmeal and Calendula bar for sensitive and dry skin types.
Clear face and body detox bar for oily and troubled skins that need a deep clean.
Any of our natural soaps for normal skin types (you lucky you!)
Hydrate and restore with facial mask powders.
Our botanical facial powder allows you to custom blend a facial mask for oily summer skin, another for dry winter skin, and even formulate unique blends for your t-zone. Available in our original Oat & Herbs, Turmeric (for mature and acne-prone skin), and restorative Papaya blends.
Moisturize with natural butters.
Natural butters help lock in moisture, allowing your skin to naturally hydrate and replenish. When using natural butters and oils for your face, remember that a very small amount goes a very long way.
Normal and dry skins that are not susceptible to clogged pores will love our Pure (unscented) body butter.
Those with oily or troubled skin will enjoy the lighter nourishment from our Vegan Lotion Bar or Miti Herbal Salve.

There is more to your skin what you can see. Hormones, healthy habits, and indulging in life’s excesses all play a role in the health and appearance of your skin. Before you start to worry about what your skin will look like 30 years from now and start investing in different skin care products, you should educate yourself on your skin type. Grab a spot next to the mirror and keep reading to discover more about your skin and how to care for it.
First, take some mental notes about your skin to figure out your skin type:
- Pay attention to how your skin feels on any given day of the week, in the morning, afternoon, and evening. Make a mental note about when it’s dry or oily feeling (or if it feels the same all the time!)
- Take note of how your skin feels 10-15 minutes after you wash your face. Wash with a quality soap, pat dry (don’t rub) and don’t use a moisturizer – this will let your skin’s natural condition shine through.
- Take a close look at the areas on your face that feel tight, dry, or become oily right after cleaning.
After paying attention to your skin, you should be able to pinpoint of which of the standard categories your skin falls into. You can also take the short quiz at the end of this article to help you analyze your results.
For sensitive and dry skin: we recommend our Pure Oatmeal and Calendula bar. It’s fragrance-free, filled with oats & calendula, and will quickly become your favorite head-to-toe soap. The formula rinses well and leaves your skin moisturized and supple.
For oily skin that’s not as sensitive, we recommend our Clear face and body detox bar. It’s going help remove excessive oil deposits and grime that can clog your pores, yet it won’t dry you out like commercial soaps and alcohol cleansers can.
For “normal” skin (those lucky individuals who never had the teenage pimply class photos… grrrrrrr you!) we recommend nearly any bar we make! There are a few exceptions though. We don’t recommend using our shampoos for facial soaps. They will tend to dry your face if used as a daily facial cleanser. You should also avoid using our utility bar, Katherine. She’s best suited for helping you wash the dishes!
Bonus on all of our signature soaps… they are vegan, zero-waste, all-natural, free of chemical colorants and artificial fragrances, and retain 100% of their natural glycerin!
