ALTR

Filter
      ALTR creates hand-made bar soap with local, wildcrafted botanicals. They seek to change popular soap culture (i.e., alter) by offering products that showcase only local southern Ontario plants, and, in this way, elevate (i.e., put on an altar) the seemingly mundane task of washing oneself into a ritual reconnection to the land that sustains us. All of the main botanical elements are wildcrafted by owners Amina and Joe, from local wild areas and are then brewed into a nourishing infusion that acts as a base for each bar. ALTR soap is plastic-free, 100% natural, made with organic ingredients, palm oil free and vegan. They make each product with great care and hope that their soap will inspire people to take care of themselves and reincorporate the natural world back into their daily rituals!

      Purifying | Detoxifying | Stimulating

      Locally wildcrafted white pine comes together with charcoal to refresh and purify. As an astringent, pine hardens proteins on the surface of the skin, preventing excessive oil from accumulating in the pores upon drying. Charcoal’s meso porous structure allows it to absorb several hundred times its own weight in impurities. This is our strongest, most deeply cleansing soap.

      ALTR soap is 100% natural, made with organic ingredients, palm oil free, cruelty free and vegan.

      Ingredients: organic olive oil, organic coconut oil, organic shea butter, avocado oil, sodium hydroxide, organic castor oil, pine infusion, charcoal, pine essential oil, cedar essential oil, vetiver essential oil, lime essential oil.
