In a world where mass-produced soaps dominate the market, Cow Friend Soap stands out as a unique and special brand. Handcrafted with love and care, these locally handmade artisan soaps are made using all-natural ingredients and only essential oils for scent, ensuring a truly luxurious and eco-friendly bathing experience. What makes Cow Friend Soap even more special is the story behind the brand – it’s a small family business that is named after a beloved male Jersey cow, aptly named “Cow Friend”.
At the heart of Cow Friend Soap is a family that is passionate about being with each other and developing talents. The business is run by a husband and wife duo (Paul and Alisha) who share a deep love for soap-making and a commitment to using only the best ingredients. While Paul is responsible for crafting beautiful displays and shelving to house the soaps, Alisha creates the soap is created with utmost care and attention to detail.
One of the unique aspects of Cow Friend Soap is that it truly embodies the spirit of a family business. Even our kids are involved in the process! They help with labeling all the soaps, soap-saver bags, and wood trays, adding their own special touch to every product. This not only creates a sense of togetherness and bonding within our family, but hopefully it also instills a strong work ethic and entrepreneurial spirit in our kids from a young age.
What sets Cow Friend Soap apart from other soap brands is its unwavering commitment to using only all-natural ingredients. The soaps are carefully handcrafted in small batches using the finest natural oils, butters, and essential oils. This ensures that each bar of soap is free from harsh chemicals, synthetic fragrances, and unnecessary additives, making it safe and gentle on the skin.
The use of essential oils for scent not only adds a delightful aroma to the soaps, but also provides therapeutic benefits, creating a truly sensory experience during bath time.
Cow Friend Soap takes pride in supporting local businesses and communities. Many ingredients used in the soaps are sourced locally, whenever possible, to promote sustainability and reduce the carbon footprint. By supporting local farmers and suppliers, Cow Friend Soap is able to create a positive impact on the environment and contribute to the local economy.
One of the most endearing aspects of Cow Friend Soap is the story behind its name. The company is named after a sweet, male Jersey cow that Alisha has the pleasure of knowing. Affectionately called “Cow Friend”, this gentle and friendly bovine became the inspiration behind the brand. The name not only reflects the family’s love for animals and nature, but also adds a personal touch to the business, making it truly unique and memorable.
Cow Friend Soap offers a wide range of soap varieties, each crafted with care and creativity. From soothing lavender to invigorating peppermint, there is a soap for every mood and preference. The soaps are carefully formulated to provide a rich and creamy lather, leaving the skin feeling soft, nourished, and refreshed. With their beautiful packaging and unique scents, Cow Friend Soap’s artisan soaps make perfect gifts for loved ones or a special treat for yourself.
We also offer soap-saver bags and wood trays to enhance the longevity and presentation of our soap. These accessories not only add a touch of elegance to the soaps, but also promote sustainability by reducing waste and allowing the soaps to air dry, ensuring that they last longer.
The love, passion, and attention to detail that goes into each product is evident—we hope— in the final product.
Xoxo, Alisha
