Our handcrafted soaps are created in small batches with the old fashioned lye and oils method. This creates pure soap, free from detergents and fillers that are just JUNK for your skin!

- Our Handcrafted Soaps -
Behind the ingredients:
Kaolin Clay - Adds a smooth, silky feel. Gently cleanses away excess oils and leaves skin feeling soft.
Coconut Milk - Adds a creamy texture and gentle lather.
Olive Oil - Adds a gentle, conditioning, nourishing lather.
Shea Butter - Adds a creamy, conditioning lather, and hardness to the bar.
Cocoa Butter - Adds hardness and longevity to the bar, and sometimes a light scent of chocolate!
Coconut Oil - Adds cleansing and copious lather, the oil responsible for that "clean" feeling.
Castor Oil - Adds creaminess, stabilizes lather and helps draw moisture to the skin.
About the Apothecary...
Hi! I'm Tara and I'm the creator of The Owls Loft Apothecary! I grew up in the Pennsylvania wilds and I have a massive love for art and nature. Goods created by hand are something that are slowly being lost to time... and I believe that in our time on this earth we should be sharing and indulging in each others crafts. -Everything you see in my shop (aside from my luscious hand-poured glycerin soaps) has been created by me from start to finish. Each recipe carefully crafted with you, and your skin, in mind.
Natural vs Synthetic:
Creating all natural, non-synthetic products is difficult anymore seeing how so many things are lab created, or artificially derived. My heart is with essential oils, dried botanicals, and natural colorants....But l also enjoy working with fragrance oils and mica colorants as well -So I decided to offer both to cater to either taste!
--------------------
Addressing the growing situation with plastic impact:
My lotions will be slowly migrating from plastic jars and bottles to reusable glass jars. -This will raise their price as glass is much more expensive, but a much better choice for the environment.
Glycerine soaps must be wrapped in plastic to keep them fresh.
Scrubs will continue be packaged in plastic jars as there is a danger and liability of shattering in the shower.
Thank you for understanding!
We strive to do better...
