SIGN IN FOR FASTER CHECKOUT
With so many new — and plenty of familiar! — faces around here, we wanted to take a moment to share the story and mission behind Bend Soap Company. Here’s a little back-story to fill you in on where Bend Soap Company started and what’s happened over the years, as written by our Co-Founder, Marilee.
Watching a child suffer is so hard. As Dwight and I watched our son struggle with his eczema, we searched for a product that would help with his pain and itching. When no product was found in the stores, our research led us back to our very own farm.
We learned that fresh goat milk was rich in nutrients. Looking at our goats, we wondered… Could soap made with this milk be the answer to our son’s eczema
True, there were already plenty of soaps to choose from, but we discovered they are laced with toxins and junk! The more labels we read, the more we felt like lab rats who were slowly being poisoned.
“We need a pure soap!” Dwight proclaimed.
Keeping the ingredients simple and pure, he handcrafted his own bar.
Each day our son soaked in a bath of this pure, nutrient-rich soap, and before we knew it, his pain and itching were gone! We were so encouraged by the results, we made more soap and shared it with family, friends, bank tellers... Anyone who was interested.
The word spread and people started asking for more, and more soap. A small family farm business began and the soap was sold at craft shows up and down the west coast.
Wherever we went we always had travel soaps to share. Soon more natural products joined the soaps as we worked to provide natural solutions for more of our skincare needs.
The soap has not changed over the years, for its all-natural goodness is precious. As we grow, we choose not to compromise on the quality of the ingredients, for what goes on our skin is too great of importance to be careless.
To those who give our products a try, we hope you enjoy. It is our mission to make these products available to all. We want you to LOVE your skin… One bar at a time!
Welcome to the Bend Soap Co. family!

I have Eczema and psoriasis. This is the best so money come by to help. Then I tried the lotions they are wonderful and very soothing. I highly recommend all their products. 🌺
We found out about Bend Soap after doing some research online about the benefits of goat milk soap and Eczema. Our oldest kid had some on the backs of her legs. Her prescription ointment wasn’t really working so we placed our first order and had great results. Fast forward a few years and our daughter has been Eczema free for a couple years now and We have placed so many orders from Bend Soap I cant even count them. They are the ONLY brand of soap my girls use. We use the lotions after each shower and they work great as well. Customers for life. My daughter hasn’t used her medication in years and she is still so happy.
One thing to mention is that during this time as well we got rid of using fabric sheets and went to dryer balls and we switched to scent free detergent for our clothes because we heard that would help as well for kids(or adults) with Eczema. Please try Bend Soap. Use the soap during the shower and afterwards use the lavender or almond lotion to continue getting the benefits of the ingredients.
Thank you Bend Soap from my family to yours.
I have struggled with eczema for some time and began to get extremely frustrated as over the counter creams didn’t do much to resolve my issues. After researching, I found that goat milk soap has been a remedy for people with dry skin who suffer from eczema. I came across bend soap when researching and I am beyond happy that I did. This soap has changed my skin in the most positive ways. It’s AMAZING, my skin It’s brighter, more even-toned and I haven’t had eczema flair ups or breakouts. I love this soap and will continue to purchase. I also shared this soap with my father and he agrees that it’s excellent. Thank you for creating a formula that’s great for people with dry, sensitive skin. Your products also work for my father who has oily combination skin. We love your products. Additionally, for those wondering, shipping time was fast considering. Considering current circumstances I didn’t expect to receive my orders as quickly as I did however they arrived quickly. I’ve purchased the goat milk unscented soap, lotions, and I will purchase the sugar scrub next.
Many thanks,
Kierra
It was around Christmas 2 yrs ago, I was looking for something different for stocking stuffers and found you. I purchased a bar of soap for each member & you’ve become a regular brand in our house ever since. The soap took away my husband’s psoriasis and redness. We use the lotions which work great on our cuticles & during the pandemic I started using the lotion as a substitute for my moisturizer on my face & I love it. They’ve made great gifts for my girlfriends b-days, oh & my husband loves the wood comb he got for Father’s Day. Love your sugar scrubs & lip balms too! Bend Soap we love you.
I have been buying goats milk soap from Bend for many years now. I had wanted to find a natural soap for my face and goats milk was recommended to me, however I tried to find an all natural goats milk soap and I could not. I live in canada and luckily randomly came across the Bend website and still using it today. Unfortunately because I live in Canada the shipping is too much so I buy a lot when I order. Thank You Bend!
