Oma’s Favorite Handcrafted Soapsbegan in 2003 because a need to soothe the delicate skin of my youngest daughter. Prescription and over-the-counter treatments weren’t really bringing her comfort, and Ihatedthe idea of using chemicals on a newborn.
After much trial and error, a collection of recipes was created that met the needs of her dry skin. Soon after, my entire family was using my soaps exclusively. Each new batch of soap taught me more about the importance of quality ingredients, and how they contributed to agreatbar of soap.
Eventually, my family and I had more soap than could be used in a lifetime!
My desire to make soap had become my passion! In 2010, I started selling products to the public.
We reached another milestone on April 22, 2017 when we opened our brick & mortar location in Pineville, Louisiana! Our shop, which we’ve dubbed the Soap Cottage, serves as the premier location for handcrafted bath treats with a concierge service!
