The Back Story

• Zero-Waste, Up-cycled Soap: Made with the left over shreds of our premium, handcrafted soaps. These "scraps" are folded into fresh oils to create an ultra mild soap and ensures less waste. And who could bear to throw away all that beautiful soap, anyway?

• Versatile & Mild: Well-cured soap has been double or even triple-milled, and we add a little walnut hull for a light exfoliation that leaves skin soft and clean. The end result is an ultra mild, slightly exfoliating soap bar that smells energizing and clean.

• Clean, Deodorizing Scent: Sweet Orange and Tea Tree Essential Oils smell clean and fresh. A drop of patchouli oil 'grounds it', ensuring a long lasting aroma that most people really like.

4.5 oz bars are left untrimmed, stamped with our logo and wrapped with a simple label. You'll love it in the kitchen or shower, and a rustic pair makes a great little hostess gift!

Most Gilded Olive olive soaps are planed or finished. This means I run the edges over a wire that trims them, making the soap feel nicer in your hands when you first use it. This creates a a bunch of soap shreds, so what to do with them all? Upcycle it into new soap.

These soap shreds are added to fresh oils, lye water and essential oils. Then everything is stick-blended together.

These soaps are very mild, and have a bit of scrubby to them. For the most part, they're pretty consistant, but may smell slightly different from batch to batch, depending on the soap shreds used.

Just like grandma's soap, it'll get the job done. The big difference is, your skin's gonna love this very mild version!

Handcut soaps weigh about 4.5 oz. Please allow for slight variations.

Keep soap out of of standing water, all that glycerin is very water soluble! Great for your skin, but you need a draining soap dish. Here's our favorite wood one.

Fresh and Natural!

So fresh and smells like nature on a high! Thank you!

Daily pampering

The soaps are luxurious and healthy! They smell amazing and I know I’m doing something good for my body! I love knowing she uses clean ingredients! Customer service is amazing!

Valerie's soaps are the best quality and its the only soap I use since I discovered it.

Great Product

I love this soap. This is the second time I’ve ordered it. It is gentle on my hands. They are no longer dry from frequent hand washing.

Great Kitchen Hand Soap

Valerie has found the best use for the soap odds and ends from making all her delightful scented soap bars - a wonderfully scented, slightly exfoliating brown bar of soap for hand washing in the kitchen. Bonus is you have no waste either..no bottle to throw out. It's all I use in the kitchen, now. Another bonus - no dry hands from repeatedly washing- because olive oil is one of the ingredients.
