There are some horrifying ingredients lurking in your lip products. Like the spook that hides in the shadows of night, these unknown terrors wreak havoc on your body long after they are gone. Every ghoul wants to look her best, but at what cost? Join us as we creak open the coffin on the haunting truths about lip products.

The average woman ingests approximately ½ pound of lip products annually. With every sip of cider, the gloss or color you’ve applied vanishes from your kisser and makes its way through your body. It’s frightening to think about the amount of petroleum,...

We look for labels that serve as our guardians, and trust that those organizations are being socially and ecologically responsible. Yet, we are often unsure of what these labels mean, and why they are important. At KIND soap company, we want to educate consumers on why we choose the ingredients we use, and how these products affect everyone who calls this little blue dot home.Can you imagine reaching for your smartphone to research the ethical...

KIND to Your Skin: Pumpkin the Superfood

kindsoap22stg2018-10-16T16:34:20-05:00

As temperatures cool and seasons change, we become a nation obsessed with all things pumpkin. It fragrances our candles, becomes a decorating staple, and adds layers of flavor to our lattes. At KIND soap, we believe this superfood deserves the spotlight year-round for the incredible benefits it provides to your skin.

While it may be slightly entertaining to envision the pumpkin, donned in a flowing cape, standing atop a mass of inferior fruits and veggies, we truly hope to shine a light on the reasons why this gourd gets such a powerful title.Nutritional SuperiorityThere’s no argument against a pump of pumpkin...

KIND to Our Waterways: When the Suds Hit the Drain

kindsoap22stg2018-10-16T16:34:23-05:00

There’s a lot of filth washing down the drains of our sinks and showers, and it has nothing to do with what was stuck to our birthday suit. While we attempt to clean ourselves, we’re polluting our waterways. Hiding between the bubbles are chemicals that cannot only harm our bodies, but the waterways that cover our earth.

You may think this is a big dramatic, suggesting a few suds have the potential to damage one of our planet’s most precious resources. We wouldn’t disagree that there are some serious matter affecting humanity, and the argument of natural soaps is a soft...

It’s Worth it to be KIND to Others

kindsoap22stg2018-10-16T16:34:26-05:00

In every waking moment, we are faced with a barrage of messages screaming, “you deserve more”. We can easily get caught up in a me-centric society. This demanding world can sometimes suck the life right out of us. And we do deserve some things: love, fairness, and kindness (and chocolate). If we get what we give, then we want to give kindness. It’s always worth it. At some point every parent utters the words “life’s not fair”, acting as jury and judge between two squabbling siblings. While the argument may be over minor injustices, we have the wisdom to see...
