sustainable sea sponges

from $8.00

These luxuriously soft sea sponges are sustainably farmed in Pohnpei, Micronesia, in a complimentary ecologically friendly practice alongside the artisanal fishing traditions and way of life of the island's people. Choose from two sizes: 3 inches across (for the bath) or 2 inches across (for the face).

I've sourced these sponges through Farm to Girl, who ensures that their sponge farmers receive a fair price for their product, and also reinvests 20% of their profits in women's health and education. You can find out more about their work here.

No harsh chemicals are used in the processing of these sponges. Care instructions:

• Rinse in clean water after use

• Squeeze to expel water

• Store in a dry spot when not in use

• For extra cleaning, soak in 1 quart of water with 2 tbsp of baking soda for 1 hour

• Your sponge will last for years with good care

Sabane al-Toukan - The Two Keys (al-Mufftahein; المفتاحين)

Pure olive oil soap, made using traditional methods by one of the oldest soapmaking workshops in Nablus, in Palestine.

Cooked in the traditional style out of olive oil, water, and soda, resulting in a soda-less bar of pure saponified olive oil. This bar has a very creamy lather (not sudsy like many commercial bar soaps), which I find to be very gentle on the skin. I even use it on my face. The soap has a very delicate scent of olive oil, but no added fragrance. It is an honor to be able to help share and uplift this beautifully sustainable artistry.

I will not be keeping any funds from the sale of this soap, all revenues will be sent directly to a network of mutual aid funds to help support the needs of ordinary people in Palestine during this devastating time. Thank you for being a part of this effort with me!

A bath to nourish skin + spirit. Exquisite organic Bulgarian lavender and sustainably harvested hinoki wood dance with grounding notes of amyris for the ultimate antidote to a long day.

Add a spoonful or two to warm bath water just before stepping in & stir to dissolve.

To extend the life of your salts, take care to prevent water from getting into the canister. Please note that any bath product containing oils may make the inside of your bathtub slippery, always use caution when stepping in and out.

We are trying something new this autumn! Our bath soaks will now arrive in biodegradable paper canisters in a continuing effort to reduce our use of plastic around the studio.
