Something wicked spooky just dropped on our website, and there’s only a few bars left!
The black is activated charcoal, the scent? It smells just like your favorite rainbow candy. And as always, the soap is so good for you, it’s scary!

Tallow has been the star of our soaps since the inception of Wash Ashore Soaps (almost a decade!). We know that tallow makes a dense, creamy, moisturizing bar that contributes to exceptional skin care.

When you use our soaps, not only do you get a lovely little piece of consumable art, but the highest quality skincare.

Tallow soaps? Yeah, we’ve been doing that since before it was cool 😉

Under the Stars has been a popular fragrance in shampoo bars and emulsified sugar scrubs, and we have a small batch of it as a luxurious soap bar as well 🧼
This whimsical bar has a celestial fragrance blending effervescent grapes, zesty citrus, and warm musk. It’s a complex scent that you’re going to want to keep coming back to.

A little #asmr video. #behindthescenes of a soap table smeared in dry soap batter at the end of an insanely stressful week for our family. I cried over spilled milk (my son’s @leaflyboba - the absolute best), because my nerves are so fried. But then I was able to go cut this beautiful soap I had made a few days before. It was poured much thinner than I normally do, which meant it practically glued itself to my mold. Thankfully @rousty.washashoresoaps was able to strong arm it out for me. And those thin colors led to an almost watercolor design!
Enjoy the plink my soap cutter makes as it gets through the soap, and be kind. Yep- it’s all covered in soap batter and that’s ok!

I snuck a few new soaps on our website last night, just in time for you to snatch them before the sale ends!

This was my first time making confetti soaps (incorporating the scraps of soap I edge off of the corners of the soap bars), and I think they look really fun! I’m hoping to use it as a test run for the fragrances. If you love them, they may come back as a regular soap in our line. There aren’t many, so make sure to grab them and let us know your thoughts!

Aloha soap 🌺
Restock day doesn’t always go as planned! Watch as I struggle to get one of my favorite soaps to behave. 🤣
Tomorrow I’ll cut it and see if it turned out well enough to sell, or has any nasty surprises.

Aloha is one of only 3 of our soaps made with aloe juice instead of water, it has skin loving oils like olive, avocado, and fair trade organic shea from @barakasheabutter
Personally, I don’t usually go for floral scents, but aloha is floral in such an understated and sophisticated way, that I find myself reaching for it time and again. If you haven’t tried it, you should definitely look for it when it’s back in stock next month.

Box up scrap art with us. It’s always a fun game to pull a pound of end pieces together. These are the perfect way to try out a bunch of different soaps! Scrap art end pieces are especially great for traveling with- small enough to get used up in a short trip.
Since they come unlabeled, if you find yourself falling for any of the pieces in your box, feel free to send a picture of it (even the smallest sliver) and we can usually identify the soap for you! That way you can stock up on full sized bars that you know you’ll love.

I recently restocked Wellfleet Blues. I was having a great time making it, but realized at the end I had missed an important step!

The hanger tool was behind the mold and while I had it ready, I completely forgot about it while making the soap. 🤦🏻‍♀️
It certainly turned out differently than usual, but I think it still looks and smells amazing! If you haven’t tried wellfleet blues before, now’s a great time to!
It is one of the most delicately scented soaps we offer, boasting a clean, fresh and leafy scent grounded out with hints of citrus and light vanilla.

It’s been one of those weeks that go by in a flash, but also seem to have gone on eternally. I’m participating in a small, local craft fair Saturday, and haven’t had a chance to get prepped. Even this short wrapping session was cut short and the soaps were left just as they are at the end of this video… waiting for tomorrow.
And even in the chaos of a messy life, I’m so proud of what you see in this video. These soaps, for which I created the recipes, after research, experimentation, and lots of practice, are pure joy to me. I once could only use plain white soaps- nothing with color or fragrance… because the dermatologist said so. But I didn’t know what a well crafted handmade soap could do for me. My skin is healthier than ever, and the joy of beautiful soap that smells amazing is one small part of what helps days that feel like years feel somewhat less daunting. Never underestimate the power of the little things.
Here I’m using the @nationalshrinkwrap system to wrap my soaps in biofilm. It’s a compostable film that protects our soaps while on display or being shipped, yet is eco friendly!

I would love to hear what little things bring you joy in the day to day busyness of life ❤️

Making Hardings Beach soap- from the making, to the cutting into loaves, and bars. This soap has sand from Cape Cod beaches in the bottom sandy colored layer, boasts a clean, salt air scent and incorporates incredibly nourishing oils.

Mother’s Day is coming quick! To celebrate, I wanted to restock two lotions that are favorites for two mothers in my life.
🥥 Day at the Beach has a coconut, citrus and a hint of spice that smells just like being on vacation. It has been my mom’s favorite since I first introduced the scent.

💜 Black Amber & Lavender is a spa-like fragrance with hints of lavender, rosewood, vanilla and soft musk. I’m lucky enough to have a bonus mom who has included me in her family since grade school, and this is her favorite lotion.

If you’re lucky enough to have any mother figures in your life, I hope you pamper them this Mother’s Day! And even better, use some tried and true products - Candy and Laurie wouldn’t steer you wrong 😉

Custom soaps are one of my favorite things to make. When @mermaid.digs_truro asked me to restock their lovely B&B with these High Tide single use soaps, I was ready!
High Tide is not only our most popular fragrance, but these soaps have a little cape cod sand in the sandy colored layer. They make a great gift to those staying, with a personalized label for the guest to remember their trip when they take the soap back home.

Stormy weather today in northern Alabama has me missing the beach! Luckily, our Emulsified Sugar Scrubs keep your skin beach ready no matter the weather!

Emulsified sugar scrubs work just like a typical scrub, but when you rinse it off it makes a lotion on your skin. This keeps you soft without leaving you greasy (and doesn’t turn your shower into a skating rink!)

We will be restocking the very popular Honeyed Pineapple Sugar Scrub this week. Make sure to check the website because it goes fast!

And volume up for the sounds of the ocean from my last visit 🌊

🔟 years ago today since my first batch of soap!
That is wild to me, and makes this a great chance to (re) introduce myself.
My name is Krista. I’m a science enthusiast (my bachelor’s degree is in microbiology), and I’ve been married to @rousty.washashoresoaps (Fred) for 21 years. We have two amazing teenagers whom we homeschool. In the 10 years since I started making soap, we have lived in 5 homes in 3 states.
Fred was active duty Coast Guard, looking for a better way to shave, which lead me to have on hand the basics for making a simple soap. The second picture shows it- poured into a mold made from a repurposed CD holder. My skin is problematic and while I ‘knew’ I couldn’t use the soap I made (it wasn’t on the dermatologist’s list of approved products), I couldn’t help myself from making it.
I cut that first batch, and let it cure for a month. When I did try it out, I was shocked to find that my skin was improved rather than irritated. Between that and the fun of making soap, I was hooked!
I learned to make soap via @mcginnis.cat Soaping 101 YouTube channel and Facebook group. They have consistently been the most encouraging group of people and I’m incredibly thankful to them all.
Soap making has allowed me to go from having to use boring soap (no colors or fragrances) to having delightful works of consumable art at every bath and sink. I am enamored with the processes of researching and formulating great products, and of course the art of making beautiful soap. But the biggest gift this company has given me is the connections I’ve made with you. The stories of how a scent or soap brought you comfort, helped you celebrate, or just brought a smile have been the biggest blessings upon could never have counted on.

Thank you to all of you who have purchased, used, gifted or just told people about our products! You’ve allowed me to pursue this strange passion of mine for 10 years! And I hope to be able to continue for a long time to come.

Let’s CELEBRATE with 10% off site wide using code DECADE through the 13th. 🌟

And check back for details on a celebration giveaway!

When I started making soap almost 10 years ago, I did it for me. The unexpected blessing is that I have been able to help others in remarkable ways. Here are just a few reasons I’ve been able to share my passion of making beautiful, healthy, consumable art with the world this week.
Your purchases not only support my family, but allow me to continue my art, bringing deeper meaning to it. Thank you 🌟

Hey Pumpkin is one of my favorite fall traditions. The spicy, comforting fragrance pairs with a lovely, creamy lather. Tomorrow we ‘fall back’ for daylight savings time, and while I appreciate the extra sleep, I dread the early sunsets. I have learned that little indulgences like this are important to help me keep the winter blues at bay. What fragrances or indulgences help keep a smile on your face?

I have been equal parts inspired to try new things and somewhat paralyzed with fear and anxiety lately in our soap journey. It’s not the best combo, but I’ve decided to lean into the new and interesting. (Maybe you saw that cute little Dino soap I posted in stories last week?)

Today I experimented with a slight variation of our trusty salt bar. We haven’t made it… since pre-pandemic I think… and I wanted to give it a zhuzh. Thanks to some inspiration from @lafilledelamer , I stepped into the soap room with some excitement and made this beauty.
Unlike most of our bars, this is an all plant based bar, loaded with coconut oil, sea salt and a bit of kelp - boasting a host of minerals and antioxidants. The fragrance is a new one to us, but I’m in love! With an anise note, it smells like crisp air, wild berries, amber, black spruce, and sandalwood. It finishes with bottom notes of balsam fir, vetiver, and musk.
I can’t wait to put this bar to use!

Alabama fall is kind of magical. The combination of sunshine, blooming flowers and fall favorites are surprising in some of the best ways. So I find myself with unexpected combinations of traditional fall (hot buttered rum soap) and unexpected new (apple cider slushies for one).
Check our website for your fall comfort soap, or your new, surprising tradition.

Hardings Beach Soap - This is one of my favorite soaps to make. We named it Hardings Beach because it was one of our first beach discoveries when we moved to the cape. The beach was littered with horseshoe crab shells and was just a magical place to bring our kids. We incorporate some cape cod sand in the bottom sandy colored layer for gentle exfoliation. I love offering this to shops who often customize the label for the beaches nearest them.
This is the soap we offer that is most often gifted based on its look, and while we are told it is ‘too pretty to use’, we hope that you will use it, and give me a reason to make more!

🌟Emulsified Sugar Scrubs 🌟

I give this explanation EVERY TIME I talk with a customer at our markets, but realized maybe you don’t know…

Our emulsified scrubs work just like your typical sugar scrub EXCEPT they’re different in all of the best ways.
Made with organic sugar, you rub these on your skin after cleansing to gently exfoliate. However, when you rinse off our scrubs, they make a lotion on your skin, leaving you moisturized but NOT greasy. This gives an added bonus of NOT turning your shower into a skating rink. (Fun fact about me: I was voted ‘most accident prone’ of my high school senior class. So if my shower was trying to kill me, it would succeed.)

My favorite way to use these is in the shower, especially after shaving. Keep another one by the sink for use after washing your hands.

We rotate fragrances seasonally, and Pumpkin Cardamom is currently my obsession. The perfect way to ring in fall is with body products that not only smell amazing, but pampers your skin. Grab them on our website now.

Does your soap still look this lovely when it’s this thin? If not, it’s time to change things up!
High Tide soap (pictured) is our best seller, has an intoxicating scent that reminds you of bright sunny days on the beach, sand from Cape Cod beaches in the bottom, sandy colored layer for gentle exfoliation, and gorgeous gold accent lines between the watery blues.

Making and cutting Beach Plum Vanilla soap. This best seller smells like late summer berries, sweet but mellowed with warm vanilla.
To make cold process soap, we pour one day 1, unmold and cut on day 2. Then the soaps get lined on a tray and left to cure for a minimum of 4 weeks before they are edged, packaged and labeled to sell.
One of my favorite parts of the process is seeing how the individual bars look when they are cut. It’s always a surprise!
