Ida's Soap Box

One of my biggest challenges as a formulator of natural skincare products is controlling the effect of the outside temperature. Our goal is to create the best natural, wholesome, nourishing skincare possible, so we formulate our products without synthetic stabilizers or waxes. We have the same problem as companies who make and ship fine chocolates during the summer months!

An Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) rinse is a great addition to any hair care regimen. Raw apple cider vinegar (ACV), packed with nutrients, can help with tangles and frizzy hair, bring back body and shine, decrease residue and clarify, stimulate the scalp, decrease dandruff, and unclog hair follicles which may help with excess shedding or hair loss. These rinses are especially helpful for those new to shampoo bars.

There are natural alternatives to chemical-laden insect repellents. Plants have been repelling insects and bugs to protect themselves since the beginning of time. So why not harness the power of plants? That's what we did to create our organic bug repellents!

Do you really expect me to use a bar of soap on my hair? Yes, we do! Shampoo bars are a natural conditioning shampoo in a solid bar form. They do not strip hair like detergent based shampoos. Although they may seem new to many, solid soap shampoos were commonly used before liquid detergent shampoos became popular in the 1940s.
