Handmade, Non-Toxic Skincare & Natural Soap Crafted in Australia

Skincare shouldn’t be complicated. Yet most shelves leave you second-guessing: chemical names you can’t pronounce, “natural” claims that fall short, plastic packaging everywhere, and fragrances that overwhelm instead of nourish.

Your skin deserves better. Just as real food fuels the body, skincare made from pure, earth-born ingredients supports the skin. No fillers. No unnecessary steps. Just the kind of simplicity our bodies recognise and respond to.

At The Soapstress, we carry on a timeless family tradition of soapmaking that began in Italy — by hand, with sun-ripened olives and botanicals. Today in Australia, we continue that heritage using kitchen staples you already know: olive oil, therapeutic essential oils, and rich mineral clays.

Each bar is hand-poured, cut, and cured in our studio. This is genuine handmade soap in Australia, crafted with integrity. As a dedicated natural soap manufacturer, we value purity over shortcuts.

For those looking to buy natural skincare products, our collection includes Body, Candles, and Soap — everyday essentials that feel indulgent yet grounded. And if you run a store or wellness space, we invite you to buy natural soap wholesale through our partnership program — helping you share this tradition with your community.

Soap is skincare. Often, the simplest rituals are the most powerful. Begin with a single bar and feel the difference.

Ancient roots. Clean ingredients. Handmade in Australia.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long will it take to ship my order?

We aim to dispatch all orders within 1–3 business days. You’ll receive tracking details via email once your parcel is on its way.

What ingredients do we use?

Our products are thoughtfully created using cold-pressed plant oils, pure essential oils, and skin-loving butters and natural clays. No parabens, sulfates, synthetic ingredients, or fillers.

Are your products vegan and cruelty-free?

Most of our soaps are vegan, except the Milk & Honey range. We never test on animals—only on willing friends and family. Compassionate skincare, always.

What is the shelf life of your products?

All of our products have a 12-month shelf life when stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. For the best scent experience, we recommend using your soaps and body care within 6–8 months - this is when our natural essential oil blends are at their most vibrant and aromatic. As always, we avoid harsh preservatives, so fresher is better!

Do you offer wholesale?

Yes! We offer wholesale natural soap bars and body care to selected stockists, spas, and boutiques. If you’re interested in stocking The Soapstress, get in touch with us here - we’d love to hear from you.

Why does the scent sometimes vary slightly from batch to batch?

Because we use only pure, natural essential oils - never synthetic fragrances - there can be gentle variations in scent from one batch to another. Factors like weather, soil, and harvest time can all influence the final aroma of an essential oil, much like how wine vintages vary each year. This is part of what makes our products so special: each batch carries the unique signature of nature.

Do you ship internationally?

Currently, we ship within Australia. For international orders, please email us directly and we’ll see what we can do!

Is your packaging sustainable?

We take sustainability seriously. Our packaging is recyclable, minimal, and glass wherever possible. Our soaps and candles come wrapped or boxed in compostable and eco-conscious materials.

Do you offer custom products?

Absolutely. We love collaborating! Whether you're after a signature scent, branded soap, or a bespoke product for your business, we can create something just for you. Get in touch via email - let’s bring your vision to life
