  • TLDR: If it's your first time ordering, start with 0.5 pounds, mark the date on the bag, and see how long it lasts!

    What's in a pound?

    Roughly 4 cups (or 64 tablespoons) of soap flakes.

    That's approximately 39 foaming dispenser refills, plus 13 soap spray refills.

    So if you have 3 foaming dispensers (1 kitchen and 2 bathrooms) and 1 soap spray bottle, then 1 pound of soap flakes provides about 13 refills for each of your dispensers and your spray bottle.

  • Combine soap flakes with water to fill soap dispensers and a spray bottle (BYO, or purchase foaming dispensers and spray lids separately). See the "recipe card" below for dilution ratios. Clean your containers between refills.

    Use foaming dispensers to to clean hands, bodies, dishes, counters, and much more!

    Use soap spray for all of your household cleaning. You won’t believe how effective this simple spray is! Follow with diluted vinegar for a streak-free finish on glass and mirrors.

    For laundry, you can use soap flakes alone—this is especially great for very delicate items. Or you can pair flakes with baking soda and washing soda for extra cleaning and odor fighting power. Toss together one part each, or buy our laundry powder and let us do the tossing for you. For cold wash, pre-dissolve in a cup of warm water.

  • Ingredients: Soap (coconut oil, sunflower seed oil, water, sodium hydroxide*).

    *Food grade. None remains after saponifying the oils into soap and glycerin.

    All soapmaking requires an alkali--typically sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide--to react with the acids in the oils and create soap. Soap labels are not required to specify this ingredient, but we are proud to offer one of the few soaps made with a food-grade (as opposed to industrial-grade) alkali, and we want you to know it!

One Product for Every Purpose

 

Fill foaming dispensers and set them next to your kitchen and bathroom sinks. Use them to clean:

  • Hands

  • Bodies

  • Dishes

  • Counters (just wet a rag, add soap, and wipe surfaces clean)

Fill a spray bottle for household cleaning, including:

  • Counters

  • Toilets (add a sprinkle of baking soda for abrasive scrubbing action)

  • Tubs/showers

  • Glass/mirrors (follow with diluted vinegar spray for a streak-free finish)

For laundry, use soap flakes alone, or pair with baking soda and washing soda for extra cleaning and odor-fighting power. (You can also buy our pre-mixed laundry powder if you’d prefer for us to do the pairing for you!) For cold washes, pre-dissolve in a cup of warm water.

  • Pure soap flakes - less than 1 tbsp per load
