Product Overview

A refreshing organic body dusting powder formulated with finely milled vegetable root powders, skin-soothing botanicals, and silky clay that work together to absorb moisture and help keep skin feeling soft, dry, cool, and comfortable.

Use after a shower or anytime your skin needs a light, refreshing touch.

Scent

Sage Mist features the clean, herbal freshness of sage. Light and uplifting, the scent evokes the feeling of a cool spring morning — crisp air, soft sunlight, and the quiet calm of nature awakening.

Why You'll Love It

Great during hot, humid weather
Helps skin stay cool, dry, and comfortable
Absorbs excess moisture
Helps reduce chafing caused by perspiration
Helps calm heat rash
Soothes and softens skin
Essential oils add a light, natural scent while supporting deodorizing and skin-comforting qualities

Can be used as a gentle, natural whole-body deodorant. By helping keep skin drier, it slows the warm, damp conditions that allow odor-causing bacteria to thrive, while leaving a smooth, non-chalky finish that feels comfortable anywhere on the body — from underarms to feet and other areas prone to perspiration.

Talc-free • Cornstarch-free • Grain-free • Synthetic-free • Simply plant-based

Thoughtful Packaging

Our organic body powders are packaged in recyclable paperboard tubes made from recycled paper with FSC certification.

How To Use

For velvety soft skin, use on clean, DRY skin after bathing or showering

We recommend sprinkling the powder on your hand first and then applying it to a specific area as opposed to shaking it directly on the skin. It is less messy and will save you from wasting powder.

As a Body Powder

Tap a small amount of dusting powder into the palm of your hand, powder puff or powder brush.
Pat evenly over skin ensuring the powder is evenly spread and worked into the skin to stay fresh, dry and silky smooth.
Add more if needed.
For the delicate décolleté area (neck and upper chest) try a makeup brush.
If using body powder, do not use a moisturizer first. These two products do not play well together!

To Prevent Chafing and Odor

Pay special attention to areas where you perspire most.
Sprinkle a small amount of powder onto your hand and apply to those areas.
Gently massage the powder into the skin until it is fully incorporated.

As a Gentle Powder Underarm Deodorant

For best results, make sure your underarms are clean and dry.
Sprinkle a small amount of powder onto your hand, powder puff, or powder brush.
Rub your hands together and feel the silky, soft, naturally absorbent powders that will help keep you fresh.
Massage the powder into your underarms and cover the entire surface area of your armpits until it is absorbed into the skin.
It may take time for your body to adapt to any natural deodorant if you currently use antiperspirant.
During hot, muggy summer months some people like to add a bit of body powder on top of their deodorant

Our super absorbent, fresh scented body powders are so versatile and have many uses.

Extra Tips:

Freshen Sheets: Sprinkle a tiny amount of powder over the bottom bedsheet where you sleep. Use your hand to rub the powder into the sheet until there is a very smooth tiny layer of powder dust. Enjoy the silky feeling and refreshing fragrance as you slip into your bed. For extra freshness, dust your sheets in the morning before making your bed.

Head to the Beach: Pack your powder when going to the beach. Simply sprinkle the powder onto your hands and rub it onto sandy areas to remove sand from your body. Since the powder absorbs moisture from the skin, the sand has nowhere to stick!

A great product for traveling since one powder can do it all in a pinch

Better than Gold Bond for Bayou Booby

"Better than Gold Bond for Bayou Booby. My breasts get hot, sweaty and itchy as the weather warms. I had used Gold Bond powder (with menthol in it) to help and wanted to try something else. The cooling factor is amazing! We'll see if impacts the itch over time, but the cooling relief is instant!!!"

Excellent, silky-smooth body powder

"This powder is “silky” just like it says and is an excellent body powder. I’ve been making my own body powder for many years using cornstarch and other ingredients. I decided to try the sage mist body powder because of the natural ingredients. The powder is smooth with a subtle scent. I’m totally impressed and I’m no longer doing home-made powder."

— David L. (5/5)

Frequently Asked Questions

What are essential oils?

What Are Pure Essential Oils?

Have you ever enjoyed the scent of a fragrant flower or herb? The fragrance comes from potent, aromatic compounds called essential oils found in the flowers, stems, seeds, bark, roots, fruits, and other parts of plants. It often requires several pounds of a plant to produce a single bottle of essential oil.

Essential oils not only give plants their unique scents but also help lure plant pollinators and protect plants from insects and other predators.

The chemical composition of essential oils may provide valuable psychological and physical aromatherapeutic benefits for some people.

It is important to note that to be a true essential oil, the oil must be isolated from the plant material by physical means only. Essential oils are NEVER extracted using solvents.

Although synthetic fragrances or "nature identical" oils are available at a much lower cost, only natural plant essential oils will provide any aromatherapeutic benefits.

If you are pregnant or under a doctor's care for any medical condition, please consult your healthcare provider before using essential oils.

Pregnancy & Children: We do not provide information on the safety of essential oils during Pregnancy or for use in Children because the available information is very ambiguous and often contradictory. If you’re interested in using essential oils during pregnancy or with young children please do your own research and consult your doctor, midwife, or health care professional before use.

Are Chagrin Valley Ingredients & Products USDA Certified Organic?

Chagrin Valley Soap & Salve is a USDA Certified Organic Company

The most important consideration in any business is its customers. Today's world of misleading claims, false advertising, and simple deception, often leaves consumers trying to discover the truth about personal products and their ingredients.

We want our customers to know that we are committed to transparency in everything we do.
We want our customers to know that when we say "organic," we mean it.
We believe that in becoming a USDA Certified Organic company, our customers do not have to wonder if we really use certified organic ingredients or if our organic products are truly organic.
So we choose to be a certified organic company and abide by the strict standards required for organic certification.

Some of my favorite products are made with ingredients that just do not exist as certified organic. Why? At this time there are no standards created for ingredients specifically used in the personal care product industry. Organic certification of personal care products is based on the organic food standards set by the National Organic Program of the USDA.

But since we are a certified organic company, we are required to submit documentation that even our "non-organic ingredients" were produced without the use of toxic pesticides, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), sewage sludge, or irradiation.

Are Your Products and Ingredients Cruelty Free?

All of Chagrin Valley's natural soap, shampoo bars, and personal care products are certified cruelty-free by Leaping Bunny.

Chagrin Valley Soap & Salve has been Leaping Bunny Certified since 2013.

The Leaping Bunny Program was developed in 1996, by The Coalition for Consumer Information on Cosmetics (CCIC), to identify and support companies that are doing their part to help eliminate the unnecessary use and mistreatment of animals to test cosmetic products and ingredients. The CCIC is made up of eight animal protection groups including the Humane Society of the U.S., as well as groups from Canada and Europe.

At Chagrin Valley we do not test our finished products on animals (other than human volunteers). But what about the raw materials, the ingredients we use?

Many products display labels claiming that their finished product is ‘not tested on animals’ but this does not guarantee that the product ingredients are actually free from animal testing.

The CCIC Standard is a pledge that a company makes to remove animal testing from all stages of product development. Our pledge to buy ingredients that are cruelty-free is integrated into the purchase agreement for all of our suppliers.

Personal care products displaying the “real” Leaping Bunny logo are certified ‘cruelty-free' using the internationally recognized Humane Cosmetics Standards. These rigorous standards require that no animal testing is performed or authorized for finished products or any of the ingredients in any stage of product development by the company, its laboratories or its suppliers after a fixed cut-off date. All Leaping Bunny companies are subject to independent audits and pledge commitments that are renewed on an annual basis.

This annual renewal is a key requirement that sets the Leaping Bunny Program apart from other cruelty-free certification programs. Companies that manufacture products, as well as their ingredient suppliers, must annually recommit to upholding their promise to not conduct animal testing on any finished products, ingredients, or formulations.

Why is this annual commitment renewal important? "Because product formulations change, suppliers come and go, and manufacturers develop innovative lines to meet consumer needs. But we know that compassionate consumers need to be confident that no animal testing is involved in the products they use."

At Chagrin Valley Soap & Salve . . .

we do NOT test our products on animals
we do NOT use ingredients tested on animals
we do NOT sell into markets that require animal testing

The Leaping Bunny Program provides
the best assurance to consumers
that they are making compassionate shopping choices
by purchasing Cruelty-Free skin care!

What Do The Different Organic Symbols Mean?

We use two different organic symbols on our website

Each symbol has a unique definition!

The "certified organic" labeling has been developed by the USDA and refers to organic claims and labeling on food and personal care products in the United States.

The USDA has very strict guidelines for the percentage of organic ingredients necessary to receive organic certification. Other countries have their own certification procedures, requirements, and standards. Labeling criteria and allowable ingredients differ from those in the US.

The USDA uses a structured labeling system based on the percentage of organic ingredients in a product (excluding water and salt-NaCl).

Products That Use the USDA Organic Seal

The USDA Organic Logo Label can be used on products that meet the standards of the first two tiers of the organic labeling system, in which 95 - 100% of all ingredients are certified organic.

Most of our non-soap products fall into this category and display the USDA logo!

Products That Use OEFFA Seal

Products made with 70–94.9% Organic Ingredients are labeled “Made with Organic ___”

Products like our soaps and shampoo bars are 85–92% organic and fall into the “Made With Organic Ingredients” category.

OEFFA Certified Organic Skin Care Why Soap & Shampoo Bars? Because the soapmaking process requires lye — a non‑agricultural ingredient that makes up more than 5% of the formula — they cannot meet the 95% threshold, even though the rest of the ingredients are organic.

These products are not allowed to use the USDA organic seal. Instead, they may display the seal of our certifying agent and the words “Certified Organic by OEFFA.”

Chagrin Valley Soap is certified by OEFFA (Ohio Ecological Food and Farm Association) — a nonprofit, USDA‑approved agency that verifies our organic ingredients and manufacturing processes.
