Our Story

Handmade in Dorset, with a little bit of love in every batch

At Lytchett Bay Soaps, we believe the products you use every day should be a pleasure to use. From beautifully scented handmade soaps to natural skincare and wellbeing products, everything we create is made with care, using thoughtfully selected ingredients and a hands-on approach that has always been at the heart of our business.

What began as a passion for creating beautiful, handmade products has grown into Lytchett Bay Soaps as you see it today — a proudly independent Dorset business with our own shop, a wonderful team and an ever-growing collection of products made for everyday moments of self-care.

Our Story

Lytchett Bay Soaps was born from a love of handmade skincare and a desire to create products that are a little different from those you'd find on the high street.

[This is where I would add Liz's actual story — when and why she started making soap, how the business developed, when the shop opened and any important milestones.]

Over the years, the range may have grown, but the ethos behind it hasn't changed: creating lovely products with care, keeping things personal and never losing the handmade quality that makes Lytchett Bay Soaps special.

Thoughtfully Chosen Ingredients

What goes into our products matters.

We carefully select ingredients for each formulation, balancing quality, performance and the experience of using the finished product. We believe in keeping things considered and creating products that you'll genuinely look forward to reaching for.

Made by Hand

There really are people behind the products you receive.

Our soaps are handmade in small batches here in Dorset, allowing us to give each batch the care and attention it deserves. From creating and pouring to cutting, finishing and wrapping, the process is wonderfully hands-on.

It's also why no two handmade soaps will ever look completely identical. Those little variations, textures and beautifully imperfect shapes are part of their character — and part of what makes handmade special.

Looking After Our Little Corner of the World

Being more conscious about the way we make and package our products is important to us.

We aim to make thoughtful choices wherever possible, from the ingredients we use to the packaging your order arrives in.
