Natural Soap

Our natural soap leaves your skin feeling clean, soft, and comfortable, not tight or stripped. Each of our handmade soap bars is made in small batches in our Virginia studio with nourishing ingredients like tallow, goat milk, and honey, so your daily shower feels a little more like self care. Gentle enough for the whole family, with no synthetic fragrance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are all your natural soaps made with tallow?

Most of our natural soaps are made with grass fed and grass finished beef tallow, often alongside goat milk, oats, or honey. A few, like Calm Down and our Aleppo-Style Laurel Berry Soap, are made with olive oil instead. If you want tallow in every bar, shop our tallow soap collection.

Which natural bar soap is gentlest for sensitive skin?

For sensitive skin, most people start with Calm Down, an olive oil bar with lavender, or Goats, Oats 'n Honey, which pairs tallow with raw goat milk and oats. Both live in our Gentle Soap collection and are made to cleanse without stripping moisture. The best natural soap for you depends on your skin, so try one bar before you stock up.

Can I use natural bar soap on my face?

Yes, several of our bars are made for the face, including Chimney Sweep with activated charcoal and Goats, Oats 'n Honey with raw goat milk and oats, and you can find them together in our Facial Soap collection. Keep peppermint and other strongly scented bars to the body. For the step after cleansing, pair your soap with one of our facial care sets, our Wild Bloom or Citrine face cream, or our Nectar and Pearl serums.

Are your soaps cruelty free?

Yes. Hearth & Homestead is Leaping Bunny certified, and the certification covers our soaps along with our body, face, and baby care. We make every bar ourselves in our Virginia studio, so we know exactly what goes into it.

What Makes a Natural Bar Soap Different

Natural soap bars leave your skin feeling soft and moisturized after you rinse. Most store bought soap bars are made with harsh detergents, synthetic cleansers, and artificial fragrances that can irritate sensitive skin.

Every bar is made by hand in small batches, so no two come out exactly alike. And we never cut corners on ingredient quality: you'll find words you can actually read on our labels, not tongue twisters like tetrasodium etidronate.

Handmade Soap with Grass Fed Tallow and Goat Milk

Our handmade soap starts with simple, nourishing ingredients, and each bar has its own mix. Most are made with grass fed and grass finished beef tallow, the same ingredient behind our best selling balms, sourced from regenerative American family farms and rendered low and slow in our own studio. Tallow gives a bar a firm body and a rich, creamy lather.

Depending on the bar, you'll find ingredients like raw goat milk, oats, honey, clays, and olive oil, so there's an all natural bar soap for everyone in the family. The Wilmoth family has made every bar in central Virginia since 2016, in the same studio behind more than one million jars of tallow balm.

Finding the Right Natural Soap for Your Skin

If your skin runs sensitive, start with our gentle soaps, including Calm Down, an olive oil bar with lavender. For washing your face, our facial soaps are made to cleanse without stripping.

Prefer a little texture? Our exfoliating bars use coffee grounds, clays, and salt, and make an easy everyday natural body soap. Our seasonal soaps bring new scents through the year.

Shopping for someone else? Goats, Oats 'n Honey is a favorite natural soap for women, and True Grit Tallow Soap is made for the men in your life.
