Francesca, the owner and artisan of Bath Bar Essentials, started her bath and body journey by making soap for her and her family due to the life threatening allergies & increasing sensitivities they were experiencing with commercial topical products. She had become extremely frustrated and surprised at not being able to find facial, bath, and body products that were truly all-natural and safe. 

 

Since she couldn’t find what she needed she decided she would create them and began researching the therapeutic properties of what she would want to include such as butters, oils, herbs, and essential oils. It wasn’t long before she fell in love with artistry, simplicity and benefits of formulating her very own soaps.  She learned how to safely make beautiful worry free soaps that her family loved.  

​

In the beginning, Bath Bar Essentials was only formed to help family, friends, and a few customers at farmer’s markets and trade-shows with the hopes of making a little extra cash. As it turned out, many people were looking for the simplicity and truly all-natural facial, bath, and body products, too. Bath Bar Essentials has been steadily growing over the first year and has become an oasis of creativity and peace for Francesca.
