Soap

The bars

You cannot smell a website. So every bar is listed by what is in it, and what it is for. Bars are $10, the salt bar $12, and three or more earns a discount at checkout.

Best seller

Serenity Salt bar

Eucalyptus mint, sea salt

The one people come back for. A salt bar lathers dense and creamy, and leaves skin polished rather than squeaky.

$12

Invigorate

Lemongrass, French green clay

The morning shower bar. Clay lifts oil and grit, lemongrass wakes you up.

$10

Winter Grains

Ground oats, cinnamon, frankincense, lavender

A soft oat scrub for skin the cold has left dry and tight. Smells like a kitchen in December.

$10

Desert Winds

Crushed walnut shells, cedarwood, lemongrass

A real scrub for elbows, feet, and hands that have done actual work.

$10

The Apothecary

Moringa, rosemary, eucalyptus, lavender

For skin that swings between oily and dry and has never found a bar that suits both.

$10

Mystic Pines

Moroccan lava clay, pine, camphor

Cooling and clean. The camphor opens your chest in hot water.

$10 Back soon

Ancient Woods

French mineral clay, cedarwood, pine

Earthy and grounding, a mineral cleanse that leaves skin feeling reset.

$10

Kitchen Hands

Ground coffee, unscented

Coffee grounds cut grease and lift garlic and onion off your hands.

$10 Back soon

Olea

100% olive oil, unscented

Olive oil and nothing else. For sensitive skin, reactive skin, and babies.

$10

Body Butter

The body butters

The same philosophy in a jar. One base of shea, coconut, avocado and beeswax, scented three ways. Every butter comes in two sizes.

Body butter

Revive

Eucalyptus mint. Thick enough to hold its shape in the jar, and it melts the moment it touches skin.

4oz · $22
2oz · $13

Body butter

Enchanted Forest

Cypress and bergamot. Warmer and woodier than Revive. Good after a bath, better after a long day.

4oz · $22
2oz · $13

Body butter

Au Naturel

The same base, nothing added. Unscented, for skin that prefers quiet.

4oz · $22
2oz · $13

Face Oil

Nourish

Squalane, argan, jojoba, castor, pumpkin, almond

Six oils chosen to hydrate deeply and hold the skin barrier together, so fine lines soften over time without a greasy film. Two or three drops at night is enough.

2oz $40

On the label

Every ingredient earns its place

There is nothing on a Nested Arrow label that does not need to be there. Here is why each one made the cut.

French green clay

Pulls oil and grit out of skin without stripping it. The reason Invigorate works as a morning bar.

Ground oats

A scrub soft enough to calm dry winter skin instead of scratching it.

Crushed walnut shell

The honest exfoliant. Real texture for rough patches and working hands.

Moroccan lava clay

A deep mineral cleanse that feels cooling in hot water.

Ground coffee

Cuts grease and lifts kitchen smells off your hands. That is the whole job, and it does it well.

Olive oil

Gentle enough to be the only ingredient in a bar. Olea is exactly that: one ingredient, nothing else.

Sea salt

Changes how a bar lathers. Dense, creamy, and it leaves skin polished rather than squeaky.

Shea butter and beeswax

The pair behind every body butter. Shea carries the moisture in, beeswax makes it last.

Squalane and jojoba

Light oils that absorb without a greasy film. The backbone of the Nourish face oil.

Made in Russell, Ontario

It started with a simple belief

Skincare doesn't need to be complicated to be effective.

Every Nested Arrow product is made by hand in small batches using 100% natural ingredients, each one chosen for what it does for your skin. No synthetic preservatives, no unnecessary additives, no ten step routine.

What began as something personal has grown into a small brand built on intentional skincare and everyday ritual: products that feel good to use, are made with integrity, and bring a little more care to the everyday.

You can find Nested Arrow at local markets and at Sandy's Flowers & More in Russell.

Small batch, by hand

How a bar gets made

  1. 01

    Chosen

    Ingredients picked for a reason, never for the label.

  2. 02

    Mixed

    Blended in small batches, one pot at a time.

  3. 03

    Poured

    Into the mold, then cut by hand.

  4. 04

    Cured

    Bars rest and harden slowly. A bar is heaviest the day it is wrapped and only gets lighter.

  5. 05

    Wrapped

    By hand, one at a time. No two bars look quite the same. That is the point.

Make the everyday a little more intentional

A bar by the kitchen sink. A jar by the bed. Two drops before sleep. None of it needs to be complicated.

Reviews

Kind words, unedited

Real reviews from the Nested Arrow Facebook page.

"These are by far, the very best soaps I have ever used. I have very dry skin in the winter, Nested Arrow soaps have completely fixed the problem. I can't say enough good things about the product, love the Winter Grains, and my son-in-law swears by the Serenity soap. I also have given all of my friends' new grandchildren the Olea soap for babies, it's perfect. Thank you Liz!"

Bee M., Facebook review

"Beautiful bar soaps! My favourite are the coffee soap and the Invigorate soap, the coffee one is amazing in the kitchen to get smells of onion and garlic off of my hands and it exfoliates at the same time. The invigorate smells like a spaaaa! Love it! I've switched over for every sink and bath in my house!"

Fauve G., Facebook review

"I absolutely love the soft whipped texture of the body butters. My skin feels like it's had a big drink of water after massaging it in. Thank you Liz for creating such a luxurious product, I can't wait to try more in your line."

Amanda C., Facebook review

"My favourite soap in the whole wide world. I've tried a ton of all natural soaps and this by far has the best composition of ingredients. Perfect for winter and ideal for the whole family. Buy a couple of soaps and thank me later."

Kristina D., Facebook review
