Local Soap, Local Impact
Maxine's Soap Co. was born in the Midwest. Built on simple, local ingredients like beef tallow and raw honey. Our mission is rooted in sustainability, community, and honest skincare made for real skin.
Why Local Soap Matters
- Less Waste: No plastic bottles, minimal packaging, and long‑lasting bars.
- Shorter Supply Chains: We source locally whenever possible.
- Supports Regional Farms: Our beef tallow is grass‑fed and sourced from Midwest suppliers.
- Better for Skin, Better for Planet: Fewer ingredients, more nourishment.
Made in Small Batches, Always
Every bar is hand‑poured in small batches, then cured the traditional way. No rush, no shortcuts, just quality. Whether it's a balm or a bar, each product honors local values with global impact.
At Maxine's Soap Co., we believe good skincare should start close to home. Our bar soaps and balms are handcrafted in Iowa using local ingredients and small‑batch processes that prioritize quality, sustainability, and transparency.
