Sarva, Sanskrit for “whole”, honors the connectedness of mind, body, and spirit. I create products that provide you sensory pleasure and enrich your spirit, always with a personal touch and connection to something deeper.
- Intelligent, careful formulation for rich, creamy lather and amazing mildness.
- Experience and knowledge. I have 10 years’ experience combining the artful sciences of soapmaking and aromatherapy to bring you a treat for your skin and your senses.
- Aromatherapy-based, custom-blended essential oils to bring you a therapeutic, rejuvenating experience. Sarva uses no synthetic fragrances whatsoever.
- Nature’s own true colors; I use spices, clays, botanicals, and other natural materials to pigment my soaps.
- Old-world craftsmanship; all Sarva soaps are entirely handcrafted in small batches to maintain their integrity, level of detail, and uniqueness.
- Beautiful artistic design; I am proud of Sarva’s nationally recognized, award-winning soaps!
- Compassionate choices; I use sustainably and ethically harvested raw materials wherever possible. Sarva soaps are all vegetarian friendly, and most are vegan friendly.
- A completely biodegradable product; what rinses down the drain won’t harm our environment.
- 100% postconsumer recycled packaging, all fully recyclable on your end.
Research shows that our brains respond to natural scents in measurable ways: the functioning of our mind and body (especially our immune system) can improve, leading to a greater sense of well-being and resiliency. Beyond the measurable, I believe nature speaks to the soul, providing comfort, joy, and balance.
Sarva soap has received worldwide acclaim, from loyal international customers to praise from local and national media (New York Times, national ad campaign for Handcrafted Soapmakers Guild, Cool Cleveland, and much more).
Sarva Soap Co. is a one-woman business. Your soaps are lovingly crafted by one single artisanal soapmaker, using an uncommon level of attention, skill, and care. Sarva is among very few companies who provide a completely natural product, and I am grateful for the praise I’ve received for my use of strictly natural scents and pigments to create such artistic, beautiful, and enjoyable luxury soaps.
Please enjoy Sarva soap. I am proud to offer a beautiful bar of truly natural soap to enhance the most mundane of daily rituals and bring joy to your life.
