Our Story
It all started with one basketful of soaps.
In 2011, I ventured into soap-making as a creative outlet, unaware of the extraordinary path it would lead me down.
With each test batch, my passion ignited, and I realized I had stumbled upon something truly special. Eager to share my creations with loved ones, I carefully packed a basket filled with my favorite samples. I can still recall the anticipation as they reached inside, examining the soaps and experiencing the delightful scents. To my relief, their reaction was overwhelmingly positive. They loved them, and their only feedback was simple: "You need to make more."
And so I did!
Since then, Stella & Throne Soapery has expanded our collection to encompass a range of hand-made, sustainably resourced self-care products - from body oils to artisan soaps, whipped body butters, and scrubs.
As an African American woman-owned business, we take immense pride in formulating recipes that nourish and balance every type and shade of skin. Our commitment to using the finest quality ingredients ensures an unparalleled self-care experience. Unlike mass-produced bars, we employ the traditional cold process soap-making method, guaranteeing luxuriously creamy lathers and gentle cleansing properties, making our soap bars safe to grace every inch of your body. Whether you seek solace after a long day or desire to pamper yourself before a special occasion, our collection is thoughtfully designed to make you feel your absolute best, every single day.
