A concentrated, multi-use, long-lasting solid bar for hair, body, and shaving — perfect for home or travel.
Cleanses naturally and thoroughly without residues that weigh hair down, allowing for less frequent washing.
Multi-use: shampoo, shave, and body wash - use head to toe.
No SLS/SLES, silicones, or plasticizers - creates a rich bubbly lather naturally.
Leaves hair light, clean, and full of volume—no waxy buildup.
Plastic-free, travel-friendly packaging and biodegradable (great for camping).
Pairs beautifully with Alaskan Herbal Hair Rinse.
Handmade from scratch with organic extra virgin olive oil, organic coconut oil, organic fair-trade shea butter, castor oil, pristine Alaskan water, sodium hydroxide, organic jojoba oil, organic essential oils (Aurora = lavender and rosemary, Alaskan Cedar = cedarwood essential oil), rosemary extract (natural antioxidant), kaolin clay. That’s it.
Keeping it simple and natural is the path to the healthiest, easiest, and most beautiful hair.
Our lip balm is handcrafted with rich organic plant oils, unrefined shea butter, and pure beeswax to deeply nourish and lock in moisture—not just sit on the surface for a few minutes.
Organic jojoba, sunflower, and castor oils soften and smooth, while pure beeswax creates a breathable barrier that helps protect lips from wind and cold (especially important here in Alaska).
We finish every tube with vitamin E, rosemary extract, and pure essential oils—never synthetic fragrances—for gentle, lasting care you can feel. Deliciously natural, never artificial.
Handcrafted in small batches and packaged in biodegradable tubes, it's simple, clean, and made to truly protect. That's why it keeps your lips soft, comfortable, and hydrated for hours. ✨

Alpenglow is made for BABIES! We formulate for the most sensitive skin.
For diaper rash there is nothing like Cottonwood Balm - use for daily treatment when changing diapers to prevent rashing, and use for emergancies when baby's skin is trashed. Nothing like it, seriously.
Cottonwood Balm is also excellent for healing baby boo boos and owies.
Alpenglow soaps - both the Goat Milk Soap Bar, Shea Butter Soap Bar and and our liquid Face, Hand & Body Wash is so gentle. For the most senstive skin. Cleans um up, but doesn't dry them out or irritate. Just avoid getting any soap in eyes.
Our Face Cream and Shea Butter Lotion is excellent for moisturizing, cradle cap, baby eczema and keeping them soft and healthy. There is nothing irritating, synthetic or yucky poo in our products. They are gentle and healing and beneficial for not only big people, but little people too.
This is baby Bay. My prior assistant Mallory's wee one and boy, he's da cutest. It's been awesome to see him grow over the last 9 months and he LOVES Alpenglow. He is one of many babies over the last 27 years that has really benefited from our products.
Harvesting Nettles in view of gorgeous Kachemak Bay! Very beneficial for hair and scalp so we extract the phytonutrients for our premium Alaskan Herbal Hair Rinse and Conditioning any styling Hair Treatment. Get yourself some!

What a cold wet spring it’s been. Planting the garden sooo late and feeling like it’s risky considering we keep dropping into the 30s F at night. But my starts have been getting root bound and I’ve been antsy to get my hands in the dirt. 72 calendula starts planted, peonies kinda barely popping up, big flat of mint separated and planted, rhubarb always does fine. Flower bed gets attention next week.
Patrick, Cassie and I planted the high tunnel earlier this week. Didn’t take any pictures. But the 42 lavender starts looks great. I started all my seeds mid-March, inside our house under grow lights. I moved them to the greenhouse to acclimate around May 10. We still had snow a few times since then.
Boy I love working with plants. Veggies, flowers, fruits, herbs. We really take care of our soil (look how dark and rich).
The midnight sun = fast growing plants once it warms up a wee. And lookie at brand new moose calf in our driveway.
Cassie is an fantastic assistant that helps w/ manufacturing, packing orders, social media, cleaning, farming... she does everything I ask of her with a great attitude, attention to detail, efficiency and a smile. There is usally more to do in a day than fits, but we try our hardest to work through it all w/ grace and acceptance.
We hand write a thank you note on every invoice we put in your orders. Well, you can read Cassie's writing, and you probably can't read mine (Sorry if illegible/my bad!).
Thank you Cassie - I couldn't do it without you!
Premium Handcrafted Small Batch Organic Skin Care – our Lavender Shea Butter Hand & Body Lotion is built for dry skin that needs real repair, not just a quick fix. 🪻
✨ Shea butter is the backbone: nutrient-rich fatty acids that soften, restore, and help mend a compromised skin barrier. It lingers in the best way—giving dry, weather-worn skin lasting protection without heaviness.
✨ Jojoba oil closely mirrors the skin’s own natural oils, so it absorbs readily and helps rebalance rather than just coat the surface. That’s why the hydration holds—it supports your skin for the long haul.
✨ Finished with true lavender essential oil for a clean, floral- herbaceous scent that relaxes and calms – making it great before bed and for wee ones.
✨ Deeply nourishing. Long-lasting. Never greasy. Healthy and Handmade.
Spring magic, harvested by hand 🌿✨
Our Cottonwood Balm + Massage Oil begins with harvesting those first sticky buds of spring, gathered before they unfurl into leaves. At our northern latitude, this window lasts just weeks, and every jar reflects hours of meticulous and resinous wildcrafting - yes, our hands get very sticky.
Why we do it? Because nothing compares.
Cottonwood buds are rich in natural plant compounds that help calm, restore, and protect:
• Salicylates – Naturally occurring aspirin-like compounds reduce pain and inflammation.
• Flavonoids + phenolics – Provide potent antioxidants that promote cell growth and skin regeneration.
• Resin acids – Antimicrobial properties offer natural protection.
Why you want it: Our Cottonwood products are excellent for skin irritations, rashes, mosquito bites, burns, blisters, hangnails, cracks on fingers and heels, diaper rash, eczema, chapped cheeks and lips, sore muscles, achy joints, and dry, irritated skin.
Wildcrafted, potent, and deeply healing.
