Meet Sabine, the creative force behind our beloved bath bombs! 🎨🛁✨

Every single bath bomb is handmade by Sabine—from molding the adorable shapes to hand-painting each one with bright, cheerful colors. The creativity runs in the family—Sabine's husband designs and 3D prints the molds himself, making these unique creations truly handcrafted from start to finish.

These bath bombs are one of our biggest fan favorites at the Durham Farmers Market, and we nearly sell out every Saturday! Kids love choosing their favorite design, color, and scent, and parents love the excitement that follows when the bath water transforms with surprise color flares hidden inside. Even better, parents tell us these bath bombs are a game-changer for getting reluctant little ones excited about bath time.

Made with natural ingredients and fruity scents, these playful bath-time treats won't stain your tub and are perfect for animal lovers, little adventurers, and anyone who could use a little extra magic at bath time. They're also a fantastic chore reward, birthday surprise, or special treat after a long day.

If you're visiting the Durham Farmers' Market, bring the kids and let them pick their favorite before they're gone! 🦄🌸🐝🦈🐸

You’ve heard of the band Five Seconds of Summer, but have you heard of the Five Soaps of Summer!?

Here are the bars you need to have on hand all summer long!

🍅 Tomato Soap - NEW!
We’ve been dreaming of a fresh tomato soap for a few years now. After recently discovering the perfect tomato leaf fragrance oil, we knew it was time to make our tomato soap a reality! Two-thirds of a cup of tomato powder infuses this soap with vitamins A and C, and lycopene—powerful skin-loving nutrients that help support collagen production, protect against UV damage, and promote a healthy, radiant complexion. Airy and herbaceous, this one is sure to be a summer favorite!

🧑‍🌾 Gardener’s Grits
Gardener's Grits is an all-natural soap with gently exfoliating stone-ground grits that help scrub away even the most stubborn dirt. This bar will be your go-to after a day spent tending to your homegrown bounty!

🌿 Herbal Outdoors
This all-natural soap contains plant extracts and essential oils that keep bugs at bay! We recommend using Herbal Outdoors Soap in combination with our Bugs at Bay spray before heading outdoors, and you can also store it with camping equipment, clothes, and bedding to keep pests away year-round.

◾️ Charcoal & Tamanu Deep Cleanse Soap
Charcoal’s oil-absorbing properties make it fantastic for oily skin, which can be a challenge during sweaty summer months! The charcoal in this soap binds to dirt and oils and pulls them from pores, leaving skin clean and refreshed. The addition of Tea Tree Oil lends antibacterial oomph, as well as adding a natural, medicinal scent. And to balance the clarifying effect of the charcoal and tea tree oil, we’ve added decadent Tamanu Oil, for its regenerative and skin-nourishing properties (perfect for sunburns).

🌊 Ocean Citrus Mist
We've managed to recreate the refreshing scent of the ocean in a soap containing all-natural essential oils and powdered sea kelp. Blue and green swirls make this a gorgeous bar – whether it’s on-theme in your beach house or beautifying your everyday digs!

We’re so grateful to Mark Szorady for his terrific review of our Sandalwood Shave soap!

Here are some highlights:

“Very very slick. This Sandalwood scent is marvelous!”

“This is a lather that gives you more slickness than cushion. This is a terrific, very slick shaving soap with a lot of glide, and a lot of great protection - no nicks, no cuts, no irritation. This was a fantastic shave.”

Our Sandalwood shave soap is a tried and true classic for a reason! Our handmade shaving soaps provide all the skin-soothing suds you need for a classic close shave. Rich lather, bentonite clay, and nourishing wheat germ oil help the razor glide effortlessly across your skin, and the rich and woody fragrance will linger long after you’ve finished shaving!

Our shaving soaps come in a round disc-shaped bar that is roughly 3" in diameter and 4 oz in weight. It should fit your favorite shaving mug perfectly!

Bugs at Bay was created to naturally repel mosquitoes without the harsh chemicals found in traditional bug sprays. Our formula is registered with the NC Department of Agriculture and complies with EPA standards, so you can enjoy the outdoors with peace of mind.

Powered by geraniol — a natural plant-based terpene known for helping deter insects — plus a blend of 7 essential oils. The result? A fresh, clean, herbal scent (not that chemical smell).

Unlike conventional sprays, Bugs at Bay is:
✔️ DEET-free
✔️ Non-toxic & all-natural
✔️ Safe for kids & pets
✔️ Gentle on skin
✔️ Safe around eyes, noses & small spaces
✔️ Travel-ready in a recyclable 4oz leak-proof bottle

We use wheat germ oil as our carrier because it’s rich in vitamin E and naturally skin-friendly.

Because our formula is all-natural, simply shake well before use and reapply often for best results. Spray freely and enjoy your summer — bite-free.
