Customer feedback

‘100% recommend purchasing from Artisan Soap Works. Great service and amazing products. My kids love the bath fizz and the soaps are great. I have a daughter with sensitive skin and Katy from Artisan Soap Works was happy to talk to me about the best products to try and they have been absolutely amazing. We have had no issues. Will be going back to artisan soap works for all my family’s soap needs’

Hannah

‘Artisan Soaps are truly the best.
Will never buy any other soap now. I suffer from eczema and have to be so careful, but I can safely use all Artisan products.
Oh and the smells – divine’

Lis Devlin

‘Katy you’re a total hero! I live near Albany and I’ve been excited to find an environmentally friendly, locally-produced business making such high-quality and reasonably priced products. So far I’ve tried the face cream, hand cream, body lotion bars, a soap or two and the dishwashing soap. The creams are super high quality and non-greasy, the basil and lime body lotion bar is already a fave and I’m a repeat customer! Soap is of course beautiful too 🙂 After trying a couple of other greener (and more expensive) washing up options and being disappointed, I’m also very impressed with the dishwashing soap – lasts for ages, really does the job and of course smells fab. Love your work!’

Rosie Smith

‘I recently bought Katy’s Hand cream and one of her devine Salt soap bars. Such beautiful products. The soap leaves your skin feeling lightly exfoliated without drying your skin out.

The hand cream smells scrumptious and doesn’t leave your skin feeling oily. I’m pretty fussy when it comes to hand cream and this one ticks all the boxes.’

Nickie Hamilton

‘Thanks for a fabulous workshop. Your willingness to share your skills and knowledge made for a really enjoyable experience. I’m very happy with my first attempt. My soaps look and smell awesome and I can’t wait to use them. Would highly recommend to anyone interested in learning about soap making and having more control over the products you use on your skin.’

Michelle Bamess

Stefania Masitto

‘Katy facilitated a fantastic soap making workshop for my daughter’s 10th birthday and managed a large group of very excited 10yos beautifully. Every guest left with two soaps and thought the workshop was brilliant. We will definitely be booking other workshops with Katy for future birthdays, such a great indoor birthday party activity particularly for the wet months.’

Zoe Tucker

‘Beautifully crafted soaps and the black salt soaps are lovely to use. Excellent products and service.’

About us

Artisan Soap Works crafts finest bath and skin care products, all lovingly and uniquely made in small batches from high quality ingredients with no two pieces exactly the same. Our environment is the inspiration for our product design, colours and scent compositions. Our a small artisan business is located in beautiful Albany, at the south coast of Western Australia. It began when founder Katy was struggling with the harshness of commercial skin care products and needed a soap that would be kind to her family’s sensitive skins. She soon was won over by the benefits of gentle and luxurious handmade soaps.

However, Katy hadn’t foreseen how fascinated she would become with the creative process of making soap and soon extended the range to include bath products and lip balm. Research and experimentation using high quality natural ingredients saw Katy develop an impressive range of luxurious skincare products which contain skin loving oils and butters and only the best ingredients.

All our products are paraben, SLS and formaldehyde free and grey water safe. We use plant derived ingredients only with one exception, being bees wax in our lip balm and lotion bars, and we support sustainable palm oil production. As with all body-care products, please check the listing descriptions and ingredients carefully before purchase (particularly if you have allergies or sensitive skin) and discontinue use if you have any reaction.

We are currently working with Meleah Farrell Photography to update all images on our website. It’s a slow process and in the meantime we would like to ask our customers for understanding for the different quality of product images.

Custom Orders

All of our products can be customised to achieve your vision. We are able to make products for special occasions such as weddings or baby showers; and are happy to make bulk or wholesale orders for resale, to use as corporate gifts or in the hospitality industry. For example our most recent custom project was a collaboration with The Perth Mint, during which we developed bath bombs with their corporate logo. Further projects are in development.

All custom orders include a design meeting in our workshop (or on the phone/video) to discuss all product requirements such as design and colour schemes, scents, dimensions, packaging and ingredients as well as budget and timelines. Following the initial briefing, Katy will provide options for each component and work closely with you.

All custom soap orders require a minimum lead time of eight weeks to allow for design, making, curing and packaging. More information for wholesale orders is available on this website, for any other enquiries please contact us.
