Mater Soap

Mater Soap, founded by Addison Walz in 2016 in Brooklyn, NY, is dedicated to creating high-quality, handmade cold-process bar soaps and organic body products. The company emphasizes the minimalist beauty of traditional bar soap and the nourishing power of plant oils and extracts. Mater Soap uses 100% natural, sustainably-sourced plant ingredients, such as smoky pine tar, rose-colored kaolin clay, and salty sea plants, to provide products that enhance the bathing ritual and nourish both body and mind. The company is committed to cruelty-free practices and has been Leaping Bunny certified since March 8, 2018. Mater Soap's products are vegan and free from SLS, parabens, synthetics, and fragrances, focusing solely on plant-based ingredients. The brand draws inspiration from sculpture, architecture, and textiles, aiming to create utilitarian objects that serve daily life while minimizing ecological impact.
