Handmade Artisan Soap

from the beautiful Marlborough Sounds

Longlasting - Skinloving - Ecofriendly

Fantastic soaps that are excellent for your skin. Indulge yourself or gift them to your friends.

Our soaps are made with a great deal of care and love, they are palm oil free and no plastic is used in the packaging. As local as it gets - our soaps are usually (not all) made with 50% tallow that we get from the local farmers here in the Kenepuru Sound.

Crafted in small batches, we cut, trim and stamp every Sound Soap by hand.

“Fabulous soaps would recommend in a heartbeat. Beautiful colors n fabulous moulds. Have very sensitive skin so usually soaps are a no go.
Using sounds soaps no dryness at all leaves my skin feeling fresh and nourished. ...
Beautifully crafted makes fabulous presents n because i live in the sounds nice to give something local. I love the little hand crafted soap pouches to use up excess soap scraps no wastage.
Minimal packaging n safe for the environment.
A wonderful product I can highly recommend.”

“I am a big fan of soap made by Heike Koester of 'SoundSoap' fame. She lives in our neck of the wood (Kenepuru Sound) and makes these beautiful, affordable, unique soaps. They feel great on your skin. Even Steve, who has sensitive skin, can use them without any reaction.”

“I just received your soap in the mail yesterday. I had a good bath with the Honey and Oats soap and I can’t get over how soft it feels on my skin and the glow that my skin has now from it. Incredible stuff. Really feels like my body recognises all the ingredients and soaks them all up. Thank you very much ☺️”
