At Boston Soap Co., we don’t cut corners. Every bar we make is cold process, handcrafted in East Boston, and made with ingredients grown and raised right here in Massachusetts. We’re not a white-label brand. We don’t buy pre-made soap bases or rely on anonymous factories. We do the hard work—rendering suet and lard in-house, partnering with local farms, and crafting each batch by hand.
Our best-selling Honey Milkies bar is a perfect example. It’s made with over 96% locally sourced ingredients: fresh goat milk from Massachusetts farms, raw local honey, tallow, lard, and essential oils. This bar isn't just a soap—it's a tribute to real agriculture, clean skincare, and traditional craft.
What Makes Boston Soap Co. Different?
-
Locally Sourced Ingredients: We partner with small farms across Massachusetts for goat milk, suet, lard, and honey. Supporting us means supporting local agriculture.
-
Tallow Soap Benefits: Tallow is rich in skin-loving fatty acids, vitamins A, D, E, and K, and mimics your skin’s natural oils better than plant-based alternatives.
-
Goat Milk for Skin: Goat milk is packed with lactic acid and nourishing fats that gently cleanse, exfoliate, and moisturize even the most sensitive skin.
-
Cold Process Soap: No melt-and-pour shortcuts here. Cold process soap retains the natural glycerin that commercial soaps remove, leaving your skin soft and hydrated.
-
No Fillers, No Palm, No Gimmicks: We use real ingredients, not trendy additives. No palm oil, no parabens, no detergents—just real fat, real milk, and real results.
Why People Love Our Bars
Customers who switch to our bars often tell us they can’t go back. Whether it’s the creamy lather of Lemongrass Poppy, the soothing scent of Lavender Lemongrass, or the gentle nourishment of Honey Milkies, our soaps are designed to feel like skincare—not just soap.
And because our ingredients come from local farms, each bar carries a story. A story of heritage-breed cows, sustainable goat dairies, and the time-intensive craft of traditional soapmaking.
Shop Local. Clean Better.
In a world of mass-produced, imported "artisan" soaps, Boston Soap Co. is the real deal. We believe your soap should be as local and honest as your food.
