Naiad Soap Arts

Finally unpacking inventory that’s been sitting (in climate controlled) storage. I have a couple of wholesale customers to take care of then available items will be up on the website and creams and scrubs will be on clearance! Please note, items will ship from Connecticut rather than California.

Breaking down the office! Feeling nostalgic about the first days of move in three years ago- it was such an exciting time to have my first space away from home!

Naiad Newsletter - extended ordering deadline - https://mailchi.mp/4e2e2e2c4fc8/naiad-newsletter-extended-ordering-deadline

Basic packaging for the new Basic Soaps! Preorder is now live!

Basic soaps are ready for pre-order. Shipping April 14th! $4 single bar $9 three pack!

I love it when herbs are suspended in oil! Here I have California Bay leaves infusing in olive oil as I get ready to make more of the soap by the same name. We run out of this one fast. I have about 10 bars left and then they won’t be back until after our move in May - as long as we can still move! The plan to shut down the business indefinitely while I find more eco packaging options has changed a bit considering the crisis. First, we make soap which is needed right now and is already packaged in reusable/compost able cotton bags. Second, I’ve been looking into having PRC plastic jars made for the scrubs and creams. Of course my major reason for wanting to call it quits was how unattainable it seems to pay for minimum custom orders of 10,000 - 50,000 jars but I’m hoping to partner with other small makers who’d like to make the switch to recycled plastic rather than virgin plastic. Maybe we can split an order (like 20 ways to start)? I still need to get quotes but if you are a small maker looking for 8 oz jars contact me for dialogue and brainstorming!

New basic soap Vanilla Bourbon and Patchouli - keeps getting lighter but I’m trying to use up supplies before the move and if I don’t have enough color left than oh well - it will still smell great, lather great and cleanse your body!

Sunday reading - can’t wait to do some foraging and formulating!

Three new “basic soaps” will be sold at a more affordable price and will be ready for preorder - as soon as I post- and will keep you updated! 3 packs will be $9 and individual soaps will be $4. That’s basically our wholesale pricing! Handmade soap takes a lot of time and effort so know we are offering these at the best price we can to help keep you stocked up. Our supply chains might be compromised for longer than a lockdown, but we’re doing everything in our financial power to make sure we can supply quality, natural soaps, for as long as possible!

We’ve got plenty of soap and are making more. California just announced lockdown but as soap makers I’d say we are essential. If you’re local to San Diego and needing soap you can get free shipping using code SDLOCAL at checkout. All other orders of $75 or more get free shipping automatically applied at checkout.
