About Us

Sheryl

I'm Sheryl - the owner of Four Peaks Soapery. I got started making soap in 2016, when two of my children struggled with skin sensitivities. I love to hike, ruck, and run! 🏔 I am an avid lover of the outdoors!

I'm a mother to five energetic children, and I love to make soap.

It all started when I made my first batch of soap with breastmilk I had frozen from my smallest child. From there, I kept going and going - small batches, during the kids' naps and late at night when they were asleep.

What you put in your body is just as important as what you put on your body. I use clays for natural color, fruit purees, raw milk from my local, grass-fed dairy, and, in some cases, essential oils for scent. All of my soaps are made through the cold process soap-making method, which includes a variety of oils and butters, fruit purees, and additives (such as pine tar, for pine tar soap). I take pride in refraining from the use of fragrance oils and synthetic ingredients that aren't skin-friendly.

Unlike other competitors and soaps you commonly find on Amazon, I do not use melt and pour soaps and brand them as handmade. Handmade, cold process soaps require the very best, ethically sourced ingredients, along with time - to commit to anything otherwise would be sacrificing the very best in what your skin deserves. When you purchase from a small business, you are supporting that ethical approach to skincare. Certainly, the rise of Amazon and other low-cost retailers gives way to a host of substandard products that might be less in cost, but at the sacrifice of being authentic skincare.

I take great pride in my soaps, and I hope you enjoy them as much as I do! Thank you for making your way to my little shop. I am so grateful you have entrusted me with the area of skincare for your family!

Hi, I’m Crystal, a stay-at-home wife, a blogger, and a full-time caregiver to my dad, who is living with dementia. Life can be tender and challenging, but it has also taught me to slow down, appreciate simple moments, and pour my heart into meaningful work.

Sheryl and I have been friends for many years, and while she is the creator and owner of Four Peaks Soapery, I lend a helping hand behind the scenes with things like website tech work, answering customer questions, listing items for sale, and so on.
