The soap “Cuz You Stink” originated from a friend’s need to combat unpleasant odors associated with aging. Inspired by persimmon extract, which neutralizes these odors, Steve worked to develop the formula. Named humorously during a conversation, the soap’s launch in 2019 turned into a successful venture. Cuz You Stink is a bestseller that smells mild and pleasant, yet works to combat those odors.
Soap originated from a natural saponification process at garbage dumps where cooking fats mixed with ashes and rainwater. Castile soap, primarily made from olive oil, traces its roots back to ancient soap makers in Aleppo, who produced hard soap using olive and laurel oil. This technique reached Europe through the Crusaders. Today, our Honey Milk Oatmeal soap combines gentle ingredients like oats, honey, and almond essential oil. Each bar is designed for moisturizing benefits and is individually wrapped to ensure freshness.
Lavender is widely associated with its calming scent and aesthetic appeal, largely due to its historical use in bathing and cleanliness. The term “lavender” is thought to originate from the Latin word “lavare,” meaning “to wash,” highlighting its connection to cleanliness. Lavender essential oil, known for its antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties, is commonly used in bath products and cosmetics. The plant’s variety includes English and Lavandin lavender, the latter being easier to cultivate but sometimes viewed as lower quality. Lavender is also utilized in culinary applications, adding distinct flavors to foods and honey.
