Small-Batch • Non-Toxic • Kind to Skin & Planet
Give your laundry the fresh, clean start it deserves. Our handcrafted laundry detergent is made in small batches using traditional soap-making methods, beginning with pure coconut oil that is transformed into a gentle, effective cleansing soap. We pair it with mineral-based boosters for a deeper clean — without harsh chemicals, fillers, dyes, or synthetic fragrances.
This detergent is powerful enough for daily laundry, yet gentle enough for sensitive skin, baby clothing, and those looking to avoid unnecessary additives.
