Does your soap contain lye?
Yes, all soaps (commercial or handmade) contain lye. There is really no way to make soap without it. But, luckily for all of us, lye gets neutralized out of the soap during the saponification process so it does not exist in the final product.
Do you use any animal products?
No, we do not use animal fats in our products. Our soaps are vegetarian and vegan, too!
Are your products safe for sensitive skin?
Definitely. Commercial soaps tend to be quite irritating to many of us due to all the added chemicals that are used to produce them—handmade soaps are much gentler on the skin.
Handmade soaps also have the benefit of including glycerin; mass produced soaps do not include glycerin, as the large soap companies remove it and sell it as a separate product for the sake of higher profits.
What is glycerin? Why should I care if it’s in my soap?
Glycerin is a humectant (attracts water). When applied to the skin, it helps to seal in moisture. It is a substance found naturally in skin and one of the many substances in skin that gives it a healthy look and feel. Glycerin, or glycerol, fights dryness and can negate the effects of skin diseases such as psoriasis. Glycerin is an emollient, making skin not only moist, but soft and supple.
How do you choose which oils to use in your soap?
Oils are chosen according to the benefits they provide. We carefully consider the benefits of each oil used when creating a recipe. Did you know that olive oil, for example, creates a very conditioning bar, whereas coconut oil helps create a very cleansing, hard bar with a nice creamy lather?
This salve is amazing!! Bought this when visiting your lovely town last year at the visitors center. I bought this salve because I work a lot in the yard and also at a barn (lots of flying things that bite). Well I came in contact with something that gave my inner arms and my neck an itchy rash and bumps. I gently rubbed all areas with the salve and in a very short time I realized I wasn't itchy and my skin had calm down considerably from one application. Highly recommend!! Thank you Debbie 💛

Great experience. Great product.
This soap is absolutely phenomenal! I love it. The scent is perfectly balanced. Invigorating but not overwhelmingly strong. The list of ingredients looks to be artisan-quality.
For way too much context, I used to enjoy a certain brand name transparent soap. They changed the recipe and I spent the next 10 or 15 years looking for something I liked as much or more… until I found Lavender & Patchouli.
Now I order this bar in an 8 month supply - it’s my go-to. Every time I get tempted to try something else that looks intriguing, I just end up wishing I had ordered more Lavender & Patchouli instead.
Love this body butter , I’m out now so need more ! Purchased at market , so great for dry skin , really hydrating and not too greasy . Great product
Ive been enjoying Sunflower Soaps since the early "Daze"! they last well, feel good and smeel amazing!
Lovely lotion and scent. I would recommend this.
My online order was delivered promptly to my door.
The scent lovely and subtle and the body butter goes on well and a little goes a long way. I would definitely recommend this.
I really like this lip balm! The texture is very smooth and lightweight, and it glides on easily without feeling sticky or heavy. It melts nicely on the lips and leaves a soft, comfortable layer that feels very natural. The moisturizing effect is excellent — it keeps my lips hydrated for a long time and helps prevent dryness, especially in cold weather.
I also brought several of these lip balms for my friends, and everyone loved them! They all mentioned how smooth the texture feels and how moisturizing it is. It’s a simple but very effective lip balm that’s easy to carry around. Definitely something I would buy again and recommend to others.

This product is fantastic! I have very dry and very sensitive skin. With this soak my skin is softer and more importantly, it is not irritated by anything in it. This is a must have for anyone with dry, sensitive skin.
Love it made my hair silky.Felt really clean will I order it again .Sure will .. Great product
I bought your products at a Craft Fair and it was great seeing you in-person!
I always buy a variety of lip balms to give to my kids in their Christmas stockings. Well, this year I bought the coconut ones and all my kids say they are the best lip balms they've ever used. You know how sometimes, lip balms can actually lead to dry lips after they've worn off - NOT these ones. They really are a balm for your lips!
I love this shampoo bar. It only takes a few rubs on you hair to build great lather and leave your hair soft and shiny. It's great for traveling because you can tuck in in a carry on and forget it. A great product!
