exceptional skincare is only possible with exceptional ingredients
Oils & Butters
At Bayside Soapworks, our commitment to crafting truly wholesome skincare begins with the foundation of each recipe – the selection of natural base oils and butters. These plant-derived oils, sourced mainly from nuts and seeds, possess remarkable abilities to protect, repair, and soothe your skin.
Each unique oil, carrying the essence of its plant origin, offers a distinct set of therapeutic properties. This allows us to tailor our formulations to various skin types and desired effects. For instance, we might choose rich olive oil to deeply nourish dry skin, or opt for jojoba oil's balancing qualities for those prone to acne.
