How to Choose Which is Best for You
Choose for your mood...
Without compromising the quality of our products and services, we offer a wide variety of aromatherapy products tailored for different senses and skin types. We understand that some days you might crave a calming effect, while other days call for an energetic boost. So why not explore our options?
We ensure that you have access to choices that align with your needs and preferences, making it easy for you to find what you are in the mood for. While our availability is seasonal, anything is possible if you just ask. Honesty is always our policy; if we can't provide something, we will explain why.
Our cruelty-free soaps and non-toxic candles can be customized in any size, scent, and shape you prefer, even if it's not listed on our site. Our candles are crafted exclusively from 100% soy wax, which is plant-based, renewable, and burns cleaner than paraffin wax, which we never use! Our wicks are lead-free cotton or wood, and all our scents are sourced from trusted companies that provide pure essential oils or phthalate-free, chemical-free fragrances.
Whether it’s our soaps, scrubs, bath salts, melts, shower steamers, balms, or butters, each product embodies the principle that less is truly more. The aromas won't overpower your space to the point of lingering for days after just one use; instead, they are natural, gentle, and pure, designed with the intent to heal and nourish you through all senses combined—mind, body, and soul. That’s why we are so passionate about being as accommodating to your needs as possible; everyone deserves a chance to discover something that brings a smile, both inside and out.
Body Bar or Hand Soap…and NOW TRY OUR NEW LINE OF COLD PROCESSED
Whether for your hands, feet, or body, we offer a variety of cruelty-free soaps, each carefully hand-crafted to cater to sensitive skin, dry skin, rough skin needing exfoliation, and even moody skin. There are numerous combinations to choose from, designed to accommodate your specific needs. We now make our soaps from scratch as well. Looking for a cold process soap that lathers and nourishes while it cleanses? We use shea butter or capuacu butter along with a signature mix of oils,(e.g., light oils like sunflower or apricot oil for a lighter, lathering cleanse, versus argan or jojoba oil for a softer, more hydrating feel), to give you the experience you are looking for. While we respect those who prefer non-plant-based soaps like goat's milk, honey, or tallow, we believe in using ingredients that align with the same end result for skin health. Below is a list of our available vegan-friendly, cruelty-free, and ethically sourced ingredients used to craft our soap, guaranteed from reliable companies as we continuously research the best options available:
soap base: activated charcoal, aloe vera, argan, cocoa butter, coconut, glycerin (opaque or clear), oatmeal, shea butter, olive oil.
carrier oils: apricot, argan, castor, grapeseed, jojoba, sunflower, sweet almond.
essential oils & naturally-derived synthetic fragrances: We offer a variety of essential oils that are pure, as well As our signature blends like our Lavender Dreams, New Years Glow, Amber Light, and Winter's Delight scents. We strive to incorporate pure EO for aromatherapy products and additional natural healing benefits for your senses, and we ensure any fragrance oils are sourced from reputable companies that produce safe synthetic fragrances from plant-derived combinations and non-toxic chemicals, free of harmful substances like phthalates and VOCs that can lead to allergies and health issues. The safe synthetics are modern, lab-created versions devoid of toxins, providing consistent, hypoallergenic scents that are gentler on sensitive individuals and the environment. Unsafe options, of which we never agree to, use petroleum derivatives, leading to the release of VOCs, formaldehyde, and benzene, while safer choices focus on plant-based or clean synthetic alternatives with transparent labeling.
grit additions: none added, colloidal oatmeal, pink kaolin clay, loofah*, pumice stone.
*Our loofah is locally sourced from our friends at Apricot Farms and LI Spice, and is available upon request due to limited availability.
Please note! As individuals with sensitive skin ourselves, Jo & Kris acknowledge that, despite our efforts to create environmentally responsible, pet-friendly, and human-safe products, we cannot guarantee a product is 100% allergen-free without knowledge of your specific allergies. Please contact us for special orders so we can do our utmost to address any known allergens or sensitivities you may have prior to purchasing our products. Additionally, don't forget to check out our non-toxic candles made from soy wax for a complete experience!
Shower Steamer or Bath Melt?
Our shower steamers, crafted with essential oils, are among our favorite aromatherapy products designed to calm, elevate, or clear your senses. Meanwhile, our bath melts—made from the same safe, cruelty-free soaps—are enriched with additional oils to nourish and delight your skin as you soak. Both products are safe to use in the shower or bath; however, keep in mind that bath melts may create a slippery surface in the shower due to their extra nourishing oils, so be cautious of where they are placed if the oils run under your feet.
How to use shower steamers: Unwrap the steamer and place it on the shower floor, away from the direct water stream. This allows the hot steam to activate it, releasing the soothing scents for aromatherapy; splash it occasionally for enhanced intensity. Breathe deeply and enjoy a spa-like experience without letting it dissolve too quickly. Large steamers typically last for 2 to 3 showers, while smaller ones may last up to 2, depending on your shower duration and their exposure to water.
How to use bath bombs and bath melts: Fill your bathtub with warm water, unwrap the bath bomb or melt, and drop it in. As it fizzes and dissolves, you can soak comfortably. For those seeking a bubble bath experience, try running the bath bomb or melt under the flowing water.
Please note that some may initially sink due to the weight of the nourishing oils, but they will eventually resurface, whether aided or not. Enjoy your time with our non-toxic candles, such as our delightful soy wax candle, for a complete relaxation experience that is both vegan friendly and indulgent.
Bath Salts or Salt/Sugar Scrubs?
Bath salts can be added to an already drawn water bath for your body or feet, while foaming bath salts, which are often part of our aromatherapy products, can be added directly to the running water to create a delightful bubble bath. These salts contain Epsom salt to help relax and relieve muscles and Dead Sea salt to detoxify. Both types are enriched with nourishing and essential oils that hydrate your skin during the process.
Instructions for use: run a warm bath, then add the entire contents of the salts to the running water to help them dissolve. Swirl to mix, then soak for 15-30 minutes; rinse briefly and moisturize afterward for optimal results. Ensure the water is warm but not hot for relaxation and better skin absorption. If using for feet, simply halve the amount you add to the bath. You can also adjust the quantity based on your personal preference.
Our salt and sugar scrubs come in a variety of exfoliating experiences!
Salt scrubs offer powerful exfoliation, smoothing rough skin by buffing away dead cells while their minerals help detoxify, reduce inflammation, unclog pores, and boost circulation. This leads to softer, clearer, and more vibrant skin that better absorbs moisturizers. They are particularly excellent for rough areas like elbows and feet, promoting relaxation and muscle relief. However, they should be used gently, typically once a week. Our cruelty-free soaps also incorporate salt scrubs that are made with or without kaolin clay, allowing you the option to combine gentle exfoliation with detoxifying clay for a nourishing body polish that buffs away dead skin, purifies pores, and leaves skin soft and glowing.
The scrub can be directly applied to your skin during your shower or bath to help exfoliate dead skin and hydrate new skin. It is recommended not to use it more than once a week for exfoliation purposes only.
For a gentler and less drying alternative, our various types of sugar scrubs help bring moisture into your skin while gently exfoliating. Granulated sugar provides more intense exfoliation with larger crystals, ideal for tougher skin. Brown sugar, being finer and softer, is less abrasive, making it perfect for sensitive skin or facial scrubs due to its gentle feel and added moisture. If you seek an even more intense moisturizing experience after exfoliation, our whipped body scrubs are for you! These scrubs feature whipped shea or coconut butter, which, once rinsed, continue to leave your skin feeling softer than ever, helping your skin lock in moisture while being exfoliated. If you prefer a rich lather with a less oily feel, you might enjoy our scrubs that include castile soap, popular in our vegan-friendly offerings.
Use any of our sugar scrubs 2–3 times per week for most skin types, or once a week for sensitive skin.
Body Butters and Balms
Our whipped body butters are oil-based formulas, often combining shea, mango, coconut, and/or cocoa butters with nourishing oils like argan, jojoba, or lighter feel oils like sunflower, grapeseed, or apricot oil. The whipped texture makes them light and airy, melting easily into the skin without a greasy residue. They are best applied to damp skin immediately after showering to seal in moisture. For an added indulgence, try our unique capacua and bacuri butter mix for a silky feel that lasts longer on your skin with a delightfully nutty scent.
In addition to our body butters, our cruelty-free soaps and lip and skin balms have a higher wax content, creating a durable, long-lasting protective barrier. This makes them excellent for specific high-exposure areas like lips and hands that need intense protection against cold wind, sun, or frequent washing. Our highly concentrated formulas are specifically designed to repair severely dry or cracked hands, ensuring your skin remains nourished.
All of our ingredients are natural, food grade safe, vegan, and cruelty-free, thoughtfully packaged in reusable jars or tins to help reduce waste in our world. We are proud to offer vegan-friendly options, including our non-toxic candles made from soy wax.
Don't forget to check out our paw balms for pets as well!
Remember, a little goes a very long way with our natural ingredients, but because they contain no added chemicals or paraffins, we ask that you store them with care. Keep out of extreme heat or prolonged freezing conditions to prevent melting or separation.

Don't forget to check out our paw balms for pets as well! We have softening/soothing paw balms for cracked skin and protective shield paw balms to help protect against the elements on walks. Please always ask if right for your pet, and never hesitate to ask your veterinarian.
Remember, a little goes a very long way with our natural ingredients, but because they contain no added chemicals or paraffins, we ask that you store them with care. Keep out of extreme heat or prolonged freezing conditions to prevent melting or separation.
