Brand story

Slow North

Slow North started the way a lot of good things do: in a backyard garage, with a new baby in the house. In 2015, after her first son was born, founder Michelle Simmons went looking for candles with ingredients she actually wanted to breathe around her family. She didn't love what she found, so she started pouring her own in Austin, Texas.

That garage project grew into a studio that still hand pours every candle in small batches. The recipes are lean: soy wax, cotton wicks, and 100% essential oils. No synthetic fragrance, no artificial dyes, no mystery list on the label. Soaps, linen sprays and reed diffusers followed, all built on the same idea. Fewer, better ingredients, and scents that are familiar.

Here's the part we really love. Slow North gives 10% of its profits to four causes: the Central Texas Food Bank, The SAFE Alliance, RAICES, and Kiva micro-loans. So the candle on your nightstand is also helping keep pantries stocked and neighbors supported back home in Texas and around the world.

Simple ingredients, easy rituals, and a little good done. That's Universal Design with a warm glow.

Why We Love It

One creamy, essential oil scented bar for happy hands at the sink or in the shower.

Somebody just came in from weeding with dirt up to the elbows, and the kitchen sink is the closest stop. Hand them one of these. Every Slow North bar starts with the same honest base: coconut oil for a big lather, olive oil for balance, castor oil for dense bubbles, plus shea butter, rice bran, and sunflower oil to keep things creamy. The scent comes from essential oils and nothing else.

Choose Eucalyptus + Lavender, Forest Bathing, Coconut + Oatmeal, Rosemary + Lemon, or Moonglow. They're cold processed in Austin and made for hands and body, so one bar can work the sink or the shower.

The garden goes down the drain. The good mood stays.

Description

Unscented, and the softest bar we make. Colloidal oatmeal and organic coconut milk powder give it a gentle, almost creamy lather, and the whole character of the bar comes from those two.

The base is the same in every bar we make. Coconut oil for hardness and a big lather, olive oil as the counterweight so it isn't all bubbles, castor oil to make that lather dense rather than airy, shea butter for creaminess, and rice bran and sunflower to soften the bar. Sodium hydroxide is the lye, which is what turns oil into soap and is used up in the making of it.

Made for anyone who'd rather their soap didn't announce itself. Good for hands and body.

Ingredients: Organic Fair Trade Coconut Oil, Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Organic Shea Butter, Sodium Hydroxide, Rice Bran Oil, Organic Sunflower Oil, Organic Castor Oil, Organic Coconut Milk Powder, Colloidal Oatmeal

How to Use: Wet with water and lather. For optimal lather, use with a soap-saver bag. To prolong the bar's life, place on a soap dish or hang to dry.

For external use only. Discontinue use if rash or irritation occurs.

Net Wt: 4.5 OZ | Approximately 3" x 2.5"

Made in Austin, Texas.
