Perennial Soaps is a soap making studio located in the Racine Business Center, home to the 16th Street Studios. We offer bar soap, foaming liquid soap, lip balm, roll on perfume, body/room spray, tattoo balm, bath bombs and cedar soap dishes. Our products are made from scratch, and are 100% vegan and palm oil free.
Our studio is primarily for manufacturing but we do have open studio hours on Thursdays from 12-5 for the public to shop. We are also open during the annual Get Behind the Arts tour in April and the building wide 16th Street Studios Open House in December.
History
Established in 2011, Erin of Perennial Soaps began making soap due to a lack of natural, vegan bath & body products in her home town. She formulated a plant based recipe from scratch, free of destructive palm oil and unnecessary chemicals.
The recipes begin with fresh, plant based ingredients like organic cocoa butter and fair trade shea. Premium grade essential and fragrance oils are added to produce unexpected scent combinations like Wanderlust, No Coast and our best seller, Urban Hippie. Topped off with fresh botanicals like locally grown lavender and calendula, the soaps are cut into generous 5 ounce bars and labeled with ingredients. Free of parabens, detergents and unnecessary chemicals, most of our products have less than 9 ingredients.
Certified cruelty free by PETA and Leaping Bunny, our products are tested on friends – not animals.
We enjoy selling at indie handmade shows and veg fests throughout the Midwest and love to see our repeat customers!
Our soaps have been featured in:
Hammock Pack
Vegan Cuts / Vegan Cuts Beauty Box
