Our philosophy
babassu boaps offers vegan, natural soaps where every bar is a handcrafted original. Produced in small batches in Berlin using exclusively natural ingredients, such as vegetable oils, essential oils, and clays, the brand is defined by minimal-waste processes. The result is a delicate, silky lather that leaves the hands and body feeling soft and nourished, never "stripped" like mass-produced commercial soaps.
Our story
Beside my brand, I am a Quality Manager / chemist in the fashion industry, currently expanding my expertise into cosmetic consultancy with a focus on sustainable skincare. By bringing knowledge of production standards and material integrity to my craft, I ensure that every bar meets the rigorous demands of conscious beauty. It is simple, honest skincare that transforms a basic wash into a high-quality daily ritual.
How did it all begin...
The idea to create my own soaps originally came from a personal frustration with dry skin after using standard shower gels on my face. As I looked closer at ingredient lists, I realized how often mass-market products rely on harsh, misunderstood chemicals. I wanted to create a solution where simplicity and transparency were the primary ingredients, ensuring a product that is safe for both face and body.
From Berlin with love
My journey began with the traditional "Savon de Marseille" found at Berlin’s artisan markets. When my favorite vendor disappeared, I decided to recreate it myself, adding personal twists to develop a superior alternative to conventional shower gels. What started as gifts for friends and family quickly grew into something more; their feedback confirmed a real demand for honest, locally-made skincare.
Making it right the first time
Thanks to my chemistry studies, I have a methodical understanding of natural soap-making basics. However, I continue to research the diverse properties of plant oils and natural additives to refine my formulations. This academic background allows me to predict the properties of a finished soap before it is even made, bringing theory and practice together to ensure a consistently high-quality product.
