The Coconut Free Struggle
One of the questions you ask the most, besides "What is all that screeching in the background of the TikTok live videos?" (it's birds) is about which of our products are truly coconut free. It seems to be the most common issue that keeps folks from trying out our offerings. And while we do have plenty of allergy-friendly soaps, and even recently came out with a whole pack of 9 soaps that are free from common allergens like pine, cinnamon and lavender, there's still that coconut-shaped elephant in the room. Here is an image to never unsee, you're welcome.
We do have a collection of coconut free items. Right now it includes our Solid Cologne, and our Shampoo Bars (which can be used as soap!). But you want soap designed to be soap. And we want soap. And we want to MAKE you that soap. Well, we have something in the works that is going to do just that!
Over in our Discord, we have a group specifically for those who want to test out things we have in the works. We recently announced in this group that we are attempting something that is pretty exciting! Hint hint, it's got to do with allergies!
Taken directly from the post, written by Deb herself:
"This week, our soap makers and I are going to start experimenting with a tallow/lard/olive oil/castor seed oil blend for soap in hopes to make a recipe without coconut oil- which is considered indispensable and perhaps irreplaceable in soap creation. We want to create a recipe that slows the trace (thickening) so we can create more fluid and vibrant designs while also addressing the folks that are allergic to coconut."
This could change everything for us, and especially for those with this common allergy. If we could make all of our soaps with this new process, we could give so many more people what they want! We're trying something new here, so it's going to take some trial and error. But give us some time (and some good luck vibes) and we'll keep going until we succeed! We WILL make incredible coconut free soap!
If you aren't following us on Tiktok, you should. That's the place you can watch us probably fail at this ongoing experiment time and time again. But failing is SUCH entertaining content, admit it! And if you keep watching, you'll eventually see the moment we succeed! We go live every Thursday at 9 pm EST.
If you are ready to try our lastest coconut free soap (and more) offerings, check out our coconut free collection!
See You There!

I am actually one of your coconut free customers. I very much appreciate it! With a dermal coconut allergy it is not always easy to tell if I’m having a reaction because it shows up the more I use it regularly. I can’t wait to see more
I really had no idea how many people had coconut 🥥 allergies. Also, I love hearing you many birds 🐦⬛ screeching in the background of your videos. When people call me and they don’t know that I have birds, they’re always like, “What is that in the background?” Or,“Do you have birds?” I don’t even hear them anymore, really. Accept for when I do notice it, then it becomes annoying.
I didn’t realize so many people have a topical sensitivity to coconut.
I just think you’re all amazing, genuinely! To put your hearts to this and still make a quality product that’s fun! Can’t wait to put in an order soon!
I hope I can try all of your soaps. You are awesome and so is all of your soap and your little helpers
