The Soap Shed specializes in creating unique, special purpose soaps of all kinds using folklore associated with herbs and essential oils.
We make soap to soothe dry Diabetic Feet with Ginger to stimulate circulation and Tea Tree as a natural antibacterial. We make some soaps to remove fish odor (Kitchen Cook Soap) and others to remove human odor (Anise Vanishing Soap for Hunters and Fisherman.
Still other soaps are formulated to aromatically relieve the stress of Hot Flashes (our Hot Flash Soap with Lavender to calm and Spearmint to cool), Many other soaps are created to address specific puzzling skin conditions like Rosacea (ROSIE, a shea butter facial soap), acne (Lemon-Tree) and eczema or psoriasis (Shea Butter Soaps). We even make a 100% natural soap for dogs!
None of our soaps are intended to cure or treat disease, simply to be the best cleansing support we can make, for whatever skin challenges you're facing.
Castile Soap for Chemotherapy and Radiation patients is a 100% Olive Oil Soap made with no fragrance whatsoever. Castile Soap is most frequently by selected those undergoing chemotherapy or radiation because it soothes the burning irritation many experience while undergoing treatment.
Made with stoneground cornmeal grits, coffee grounds and pumice to tackle the extreme challenge of removing the toughest grease and grime from mechanics' hands.
Intertrigo is a fancy name for a rash that develops between the folds of skin under the breasts, stomach or armpits. Anytime your skin gets warm and sweaty, conditions are perfect for intertrigo to develop.
The Jock itch fungus only affects the top layer of skin, making it very possible to treat it using just a good, natural soap – like we just happen to have!
I stopped by your booth at the WNC Herb Festival recently and bought a grab bag of soap and a bar of your new scent. I just had to tell you that I really love all your soaps, but particularly this new scent. I’ve been using your soaps now for about 10 years -- even when my husband was downsized and money was really, really tight -- I would save birthday money and buy several bars, cut them in half and use them for bathing and washing my hands in the kitchen. I am hooked and yours is the only soap I use now. I still haven’t converted my husband yet, but I’m hoping to.
We live in Asheville now and I regularly visit your booth in the Kress building. I have sent baby soaps to my new grandbabies and soap for diabetics to my elderly Mom. Thanks for a grand product that just brings such joy to my life. I never enjoyed washing my hands so much!
Hope to visit your ‘shed’ sometime. A sweet smelling customer
