Bare Necessities

I had so much fun with this custom order, I’m going to have to keep this one on the shelves!

Lemon Verbena
Bright • Fresh • Energizing
Awaken your senses with the crisp, uplifting aroma of fresh lemon verbena. Swirled in vibrant sunshine yellow and deep charcoal black, this artisan bar is as beautiful as it is refreshing. Tiny poppy seeds add gentle exfoliation, while activated charcoal helps leave skin feeling clean and renewed.
Crafted in small batches with nourishing oils and butters, Lemon Verbena transforms an everyday shower into a moment of brightness. The sparkling citrus fragrance is clean, cheerful, and invigorating—like sunshine through an open window on a warm summer morning.
Whether you’re starting your day or washing away the stress of it, Lemon Verbena leaves skin feeling refreshed, pampered, and lightly scented with a fresh burst of citrus.

What a special day! I got to take my daughter with me to pick up the keys to my shop!
It’s official!!
It was a beautiful day, how lucky are we? We live two blocks from my shop on broadway.
So we walked to my landlords office,
Got the keys,
Straight shot to the shop,
On the way there was a farmers market,
And then we arrived so my daughter can experience what it’s like to accomplish your dreams ❤️🌈

Dreams do come true, and you will never know unless you try.
Thank you so much to my partner, my family, my customers, for believing in me, my cohort for supporting my growth, and for this beautiful girl who doesn’t know it, but pushes me to grow every day💋🥰

This is it baby girl, you are getting the future that was promised to you 🫂💕

Last week I finished all of my final papers.

Today I opened my first business account and got a free line of credit!

I acquired an insurance policy for my shop,
Bought materials for my soap classes,
Created invitations to my grand opening night,
And ordered more merch 🙂

I’ve been mothering, working, schooling, and trying to build this business from the ground up.

It’s been a lot, but I truly believe this is the transition I’ve been waiting for: a transition into stability.

And the beautiful part is that it’s all intentional.
I’ve been putting my all into everything that I do now and it all has so much meaning. I feel very fulfilled and I couldn’t have done it without all of your support 🫂🙏

Thank you, for helping me build a future for my daughter. Thank you so much!

Sincerely,
Bare Necessities

My business has all been through word of mouth! ❤️❤️❤️
I feel so blessed, keep spreading the word!
This mama thanks you 🙏

Freshly cut restock of my Pacific Northwest bar!
Each pour comes out so differently- it’s so fun to cut!

Pacific Northwest
Bonfire Embers • Fog & Fern
Deep in the evergreen forests of the Pacific Northwest, morning fog drifts through towering cedars while the last embers of a campfire glow beneath a canopy of moss-covered trees. Notes of smoky woods and warm fire-kissed earth mingle with crisp forest air, damp ferns, and the quiet stillness that settles over the mountains at dawn.
This artisan soap captures the soul of the PNW—misty trails, hidden forests, and evenings spent gathered around a crackling fire. Crafted by hand and finished with shimmering gold peaks inspired by sunlight breaking through the fog, each bar is a tribute to the rugged beauty of the Northwest.
