We are purveyors of all natural artisan soaps, hand-crafted in very small batches using only the most deserving and essential of elements.
I’m often asked what it is that started me down the path of making soap. To which, I usually admit, I’m not entirely sure. I love learning new skills, particularly those skills that are often considered “old world” or “homesteading” in nature. To me, I’ve always loved the idea of “the renaissance man”, where by life experience, the strength of will, and a stubborn unwillingness to give up – you can pretty much do anything you set your mind to. So it was within this mental landscape, that I started teaching myself to make handmade soap. When I started out, I went through many failed experiments and disappointing results – and then graduated to the point where it was “technically soap” – but nothing to write home about. And I remember thinking, “there’s no way this is where I move on to something else – I must do better”. And so I did…, yet somewhere along the way, I seem to have become unknowingly obsessed with the quest for crafting the “perfect bar of soap”. And even today, where years later, my recipes are pretty battle-hardened, and my customers are pretty stoked… yet still, the quest continues. I’m always improving in the most incremental of ways, nuances, and nudges towards that ever-moving goal of the perfect bar.
All my soaps are 100% all natural, made by hand, by me, and me alone – nobody else formulates or crafts my soap, I alone make and package every single batch of Lost Elixir Artisan soap – as in the end, each bar is a reflection of me, and that which inspires me.
