About

Hello, I’m Jacqueline.

The Kendal Soap Co. began in my home in the Auld Grey Town of Kendal, where I handcraft traditional cold process soaps in small batches using time-honoured methods.

Growing up locally, surrounded by fields and fells, I developed a deep respect for simple living and the natural world. Life on a farm taught me the value of hard work, quality ingredients, and doing things properly — principles that guide every bar I make.

Each soap is carefully formulated using thoughtfully chosen plant oils and butters, pure essential oils, and mineral-rich clays. I work in small batches to ensure exceptional quality, safety, and consistency.

My recipes are inspired by fell walks, fresh country air, and my own experience with sensitive skin. The result is soap that is gentle, nourishing, and made to be used and enjoyed every day.

All products are independently assessed and approved by a chartered chemist, ensuring they meet UK cosmetic safety standards.

Today, The Kendal Soap Co. is proud to be stocked in beautiful independent shops across Cumbria and trusted by customers who value traditional British craftsmanship and natural ingredients.

Thank you for supporting small, independent making.
