Pure & natural soaps from the Coast of Maine since 1984. Handcrafted in our little seaside workshop. 🌊🧼

Est. 1984 - Maine Island Soap is made the old fashioned way on the coast on Maine with minimal all natural ingredients. We make our soaps entirely by hand in our little garage that we’ve converted into our soap making room. Several of our fundamental values include being good stewards of the land and living a natural lifestyle with as little impact to the environment as possible. Each bar is hand

Whoomp, there it is… another 400 bars! 🎶🧼

Today’s soap lineup:
🌿 300 Clam Flat Clay
☀️ 100 Summer Blend

Before we can pour, every batch gets portioned into our lobster pots, then we add the essential oils, herbs, clays, and botanicals before mixing it all together.

It’s one of those behind-the-scenes steps that doesn’t always make the spotlight, but it’s where every bar begins. Handmade, small batch, and crafted with care right here in Maine. 💚

Sometimes we all need a little excuse to slow down. 🤍

If you’ve been scrolling a little too fast today, stay here for a minute.

Watch the final turmeric swirl dance across the top of our Cadillac Mountain Morning Mint soap as it’s handcrafted right here in our little Maine soap shop. There’s something so calming about watching each bar come to life, one slow, intentional movement at a time.

Soap making isn’t just about creating something beautiful. It’s about taking simple ingredients, a little patience, and a whole lot of heart, then turning them into something you’ll use every single day.

Take a deep breath, enjoy the swirl, and let your mind rest for just a moment. 🌿✨

Handcrafted with love at Maine Island Soap.
