Stirling Soap Company
Brand · Body care
Stirling Soap Company was founded in January, 2012 by owners, Roderick and Amanda Lovan.
We started our company after a trip to Scotland left us craving all things natural and pure for our bodies (not to mention the food, beer, and scotch whisky!). After only a little research we discovered that "soap" bought from the local super-stores could not even be considered real soap. A little more digging into natural, artisan soaps led us to the discovery that if we really wanted to make the switch, we'd better make a lot more room in our budget. Who has money to shell out for natural soap to use on a daily basis?
So this brings us to our business statement: You shouldn’t have to pay eight dollars a bar for natural soap that is good for your skin and safe for you and your family. We truly believe that at Stirling Soap Company. When we finally learned that the majority of what passes for “soap” in stores is technically not soap according to the FDA's definition of soap, and that it is full of lab created chemicals and detergents in the interest of making it cheaper to manufacture, we decided to look into natural soaps. While we were impressed with the quality of the soaps we found, we knew that there was no way that we could use them as everyday soaps at the prices they were being offered.
So, we set out to make a soap that was not only natural and healthy, but also affordable.
We went through numerous recipes and numerous suppliers early on while testing batches. We fought over crafting styles, pouring methods, cutting and storing. We maxed out credit cards buying yet more ingredients to find the perfect blends that would make the best soap. We took our own notes as well as the feedback from our testers and came up with the best possible soaps that one could hope to create at a price that is affordable to all. What we settled on is what we offer you here on this site.
