If you’ve visited recently and noticed your favorite soap is missing, you’re not wrong. Stock has been low. Painfully low. So low it’s starting to feel ironic that 'soap' is in our name at all. And while I know that’s frustrating on your end, it’s been just as maddening over here.
The issue? Well, the main one (aside from the existential ones) is that a critical supply order placed back in March has only recently arrived. That’s right. March. I followed up relentlessly for months. Phone calls, emails, subtle yet persistent pestering. I'm quite certain they processed the order just to make me go away. It was either that or a restraining order.
But also, let’s be honest, even if the supplies had been here, I was mostly out of commission for the months of May and June. I probably would’ve squeezed in some soap-making in between it all, but my absence definitely didn’t help matters.
May kicked off with an extended vacation, my first real break in years, followed immediately by a family crisis that flipped everything on its head. I’ve been heartbroken, in a fog, and trying to find my footing again. But I’m back now. Not quite all there, maybe, but back all the same.
After months of delays, hold-ups, and borderline harassment on my end, the materials are finally in hand, and I’ve been making soap ever since.
As of today, racks are filling up fast. I’ve already made small batches of most varieties and will circle back to scale them up once I get through the full list. The bars that are made are now curing, which means they’ll be ready to ship in 4 to 6 weeks. No shortcuts, no rushing. That’s just how real, cold-process soap works. It needs time to cure and get itself together.
Same.
So what does that mean for you?
Ship Dates
You’ll start seeing estimated ship dates listed on out-of-stock soaps that are already in production. That way, you’re not left guessing when something will be back. You’ll know what’s coming and when. You can also sign up to be notified just as soon as these soaps are back in stock.
Online Only
A few longtime favorites will be moving to online-only status soon. This helps make space in the shop for new releases while keeping the classics available for those who know where to find them.
You can check out those new updates here.
As always, I appreciate your patience and your loyalty. This is a small, family-run business, and the last few months have been heavy. Between supply delays and a deep loss to our family, we’ve been navigating more than we've expressed.
Thanks for sticking with us through all this. I know how easy it is to jump ship when things get weird or slow or inconsistent.
