BollediNatura

Here’s something I didn’t really understand when I first started making soap: the ingredients 🌱 matter so much more than I realized.

When I made my first soaps, I was learning by doing. I experimented, made plenty of mistakes, and slowly became more curious about what was actually happening inside each recipe.

The more I learned, the more I wanted to understand the ingredients properly — not just how to make a bar of soap, but why certain oils, butters, clays and botanicals are chosen, what they bring to a formulation, and how they affect the way the finished soap feels on the skin.

So I decided to study soapmaking more seriously, taking a course that went beyond the practical side and taught me about formulation, ingredients and their properties.

Today, olive oil is the main oil in my soaps, and I choose certified organic olive oil for my formulations.

It’s one of the things I love about making soap in small batches: I can be intentional about what goes into each recipe and why.

And that’s something I want to share more of here…why I choose each ingredient. 🌿

Because I think knowing what we’re putting on our skin is worth a little curiosity.
Have you ever wondered what actually goes into a bar of soap? 🧼

It’s been a little quiet around here... 🌿

I’ve been working behind the scenes and thinking about what’s next for Bolle di Natura.

Over the past few years, this little brand has grown and changed in ways I never expected. From starting as a passion project in New York Upper East Side to being on store shelves in Paris, I’ve learned so much about what I want Bolle di Natura to be.

This year brought a few important changes. I’ve decided to step away from retail stores and focus on selling directly online, which will allow me to connect more closely with you and put more energy into the products, ingredients and values that have always been at the heart of the brand.

I’m also starting a new chapter in how I make my soaps, partnering with a Parisian laboratory for small-batch production and curing.

But the heart of Bolle di Natura hasn’t changed:
🌿 Thoughtfully selected ingredients
🧼 Small-batch craftsmanship
♻️ Less plastic, more conscious choices
✨ Simple, beautiful self-care

And there’s something new I’m working toward for this fall...
I’m not ready to tell you everything just yet. 🤍
But I’m very excited to start sharing again.
More soon.
