Nature IS Health hair2toe soaps are crafted with organic and home-rendered pasture-raised oils. We make soap sustainably and via a traditional recipe with no fillers or synthetic ingredients. Our soap is hypoallergenic, suitable for sensitive skin, lasts long, and obviously nourishes after the first use. We work hard outdoors in all weather, so we understand the need for protective and regenerative skincare!
How I started making soap...
Were you aware that soap-making was a typical activity among homesteaders? Rather than relying on exotic oils brought from far-off lands, they used surplus fat from animal sacrifices to produce candles, soaps, and balms.
When I first met Brian, he had just started working at our local farm and butcher shop. One day, he came home and inquired if there was a way to utilize extra fat to avoid waste. Aside from making homemade lard and tallow for cooking, I remembered a small handbook I used to carry in my travel bag during my time in British Columbia. It explained how to create excellent homemade soap using rendered tallow and lard. Finding this book was surprising to me, as I had been vegan and vegetarian for several years and wasn't keen on collecting animal fat and using it on my body.
No traditional civilization survives by wasting their sacrifices; every part of animals, plants, and the Earth is utilized or we are not deserving of harvesting it in the first place.
HAIR2TOE
We began making soap. So much soap! I felt like I was getting in touch with the reality of the circle of life, reducing waste, and best of all, this soap was the best soap I have ever used. It glided over my skin, disappeared my scars, moisturized, cleared my acne, and for the first time in my life, I didn't need lotions.
Another bonus, I didn't need a product for each specific part of my body. Our soap and product line quickly gained the slogan "HAIR2TOE," so natural and multiuse!
From there, we continued to create a whole line of multiuse skin, hair, lifestyle, and health products, all geared towards balanced health, eco-friendly living, and powered by the energy I cultivated learning about holistic nutrition, Ayurveda, and healing the planet.
