How It’s Made: Behind the Suds
Inside our all-natural soap process — from plant to pamper.
Hey friend, ever wonder how our dreamy bars of sudsy goodness come to life? Let’s pull back the curtain and give you a peek behind the suds. Spoiler: it smells amazing back here.
We’re a small team with big hearts, and everything we create is made the slow, intentional, honest-to-goodness way — with natural ingredients, eco-friendly practices, and a whole lot of love.
It Starts with the Good Stuff -
Every product we create—whether it’s a bar of soap, a jar of whipped body butter, or a bottle of our natural lotion—starts with a carefully curated blend of pure, plant-based oils. We're talking about deeply moisturizing ingredients like:
Olive oil – packed with antioxidants and gentle on sensitive skin
Coconut oil – naturally cleansing and full of fatty acids
Shea butter – ultra-rich and perfect for soothing dryness
These oils aren’t just great for your skin—they’re also sustainably sourced and biodegradable, making them kind to the Earth too.
We take a firm stand against artificial ingredients. That means no synthetic fragrances, no parabens, no sulfates, and absolutely no harsh detergents. Instead, we let Mother Nature lead.
Our handmade soaps are scented only with 100% pure essential oils—think calming lavender, energizing peppermint, bright citrus, and grounding rosemary. These natural scents not only smell amazing, but they offer real aromatherapy benefits, too. You won’t find anything fake, funky, or overbearing—just clean, real ingredients straight from the source.
Color? That’s courtesy of plants and clays. Ever seen soap our Happy Thoughts Bar Soap with the soft pinkish and purplish hues? That’s our favorite pink clay and alkanet root doing its thing. Or our energizing Coffee Soap Bar with swirls of cocoa powder and coffee grinds? Nature’s paintbrush at work.
Being "ingredient snobs" isn't about being fussy—it's about being intentional. Every choice we make is rooted in our commitment to creating clean, safe, and effective products that support your skin and protect the planet. Whether you’re looking for an everyday soap, a moisturizing body butter, or a better way to do laundry, you can feel confident that what’s inside is as pure as it is powerful.
Small-Batch = Big Heart
At Cheeky Maiden Soap Co., we don’t believe in shortcuts—especially when it comes to something as personal and essential as what touches your skin every day. That’s why we make all of our natural products the old-fashioned way: by hand, in small batches, using time-honored techniques and a whole lot of care.
No noisy conveyor belts, no faceless factories, and definitely no soulless slabs of soap. We make our soaps, lotions, and more the old-fashioned way — in small batches, by hand. Every batch is mixed, poured, cut, and cured with care (and maybe a little singing in the workshop).
Small-batch production means better quality control, less waste, and more opportunities for us to obsess over the details. Each bar is a reflection of our passion for natural skincare and our deep respect for the ingredients we use. From the moment the oils are blended to the final wrap, every step is done with intention and integrity.
Kind to All Kinds -
Almost all of our soaps are vegan, gluten-free, and always, always cruelty-free. We’re proud to create something that works for sensitive skin, conscious lifestyles, and anyone who loves a product that’s clean and effective.
(And yep — even the glittery bath bombs are made with biodegradable sparkle. Because eco-friendly can still shine.)
From Our Hands to Yours -
Once the soaps are fully cured — a process that takes a few weeks to let them harden and reach peak latherability (totally a word) — we package them up with minimal, recyclable materials.
Then they’re off to your doorstep — ready to turn your shower into a five-star spa moment.
Why It Matters -
Every time you lather up with one of our bars, you're not just getting clean — you’re supporting a small business, a mindful mission, and a dream that smells a whole lot like lavender and lemongrass.
So next time you pick up your favorite soap, know that it was handcrafted with intention, from sourcing to packaging. From our hands to yours — literally.
Thanks for being here. Thanks for caring. And thanks for loving the little things (like bars of soap that don’t mess around). We appreciate you!
xoxo,
The Cheeky Maiden
