Why 125,000 people switched
Your Shower Gel Is Basically Engine Degreaser
The SLS in most body washes is an industrial detergent. That "clean" tightness? That's stripped skin. We made something better.
🫒
Real Ingredients
Olive oil, coconut oil, shea butter & pure essential oils. Every ingredient listed, nothing hidden behind "fragrance."
🧱
Lasts 21+ Showers
3–4 week cure makes each bar rock-hard. No dissolving into mush after a week like supermarket soap.
🌲
Smells Incredible
Pine, cedarwood, black pepper — real plant extracts, not synthetic "Sport Blast." You'll get compliments.
The Origin Story
Started with a pint of Guinness and lockdown boredom.
Founder John Larkin was stuck at home with dry skin and rubbish shower gel. He tried his wife's soap, loved it, and thought: why can't men have this? He brewed his first batch with Guinness stout. Four years and 35 employees later, every bar is still handmade, 54 at a time.

Beyond Soap
The deodorant people won't shut up about.
John's daughter Aimee made him create a lavender deodorant. It's now a bestseller — gym-tested, lasts all day, and made with the same natural-only promise. Bundles include deodorants so you can try both.
