Ingredients
We believe the best products begin with thoughtfully chosen ingredients. Our formula combines a simple plant-based soap base with one unexpected botanical: responsibly harvested invasive ice plant. Every ingredient has a purpose. Every bottle tells a story.
Ice Plant Extract
Harvested Invasive Ice Plant (Carpobrotus edulis)
Unlike most botanical ingredients, our ice plant isn't cultivated—it is responsibly harvested from invasive populations that have spread throughout California's coastal landscapes.
Originally introduced to stabilize soil, ice plant has since expanded across many coastal habitats, where it can outcompete native plant communities and alter local ecosystems.
Rather than seeing it only as an environmental challenge, we see an opportunity to give this remarkable succulent a second life.
What's Inside
Ice plant has attracted growing scientific interest for its diverse array of naturally occurring botanical compounds:
Like many succulents, it also contains naturally occurring polysaccharides and stores significant amounts of water within its tissues—helping it thrive in harsh coastal environments.
We're only beginning to understand the full potential of this remarkable botanical. As our research continues, we're committed to sharing what we learn with complete transparency.
Organic Liquid Castile Soap
Our liquid soap begins with an organic liquid castile soap base made from thoughtfully selected plant-based ingredients.
Pure water forms the foundation of our liquid soap.
A gentle cleansing ingredient derived primarily from olive oil and other vegetable oils, creating a smooth, mild lather.
Derived from coconut oil, it creates a rich, satisfying lather while helping lift away dirt and oils.
A plant-derived humectant that attracts moisture for a smooth, comfortable cleansing experience.
A plant-derived ingredient that helps maintain the stability and consistency of the formula.
Naturally produced through the fermentation of plant sugars, used to help balance the pH of the soap.
