Why We Handcraft Our Soaps - And Why Your Support Matters

Discover why Tierra Mia Organics handcrafts pure goat milk soaps and Oat's Milk soaps and  how your support of small businesses makes a difference.  Learn the natural benefits of goat milk for healthy radiant skin.

At Tierra Mia Organics, every bar of soap begins with care, intention, and one guiding belief - what we put on our skin should be pure, nourishing, and safe.

Before I founded Tierra Mia Organics in 2010, I spent years as a holistic skincare practitioner helping my clients achieve naturally healthy skin.  I saw firsthand how many "skincare" products were loaded with harsh detergents and synthetic ingredients that stripped the skin's natural oils.

I became aware of the many benefits of goat's milk for the skin.  Goat's Milk has been used for centuries to nourish and soften the skin - it has been a natural anti-aging remedy even before the term "anti-aging existed.

Over the years of being in the beauty industry, I've seen that not only soaps and body washes contained unnecessary and even harmful chemical ingredients, but even products like eye creams and serums had ingredients that harm the sensitive skin tissue around the eye.  Eye creams that contained retinols, or AHA's; these promote fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes.

Making products that contained natural lactic acid and using real and "skin safe" oils is key to helping the skin and not harm it.

Tierra Mia Organics products will cleanse while hydrating and leaving your skin refreshed, not stripped of it's natural protective barrier.

 

Since 2010 we make our products in small batches here in California.

Choosing companies like Tierra Mia Organics helps small business and gets you  to know the people behind the company.

We are a business built on integrity and loyalty to our customers.

Our soaps are handmade in small batches right here in cottonwood California.  Each bar is poured, cut and wrapped by hand.  There's no factory or mass production - just people who care deeply about crafting pure, natural skincare.

When you choose Tierra Mia Organics, you're not just buying healthy soap.  You are supporting:

  • Local craftsmanship and small batch production
  • Sustainable, cruelty-free skincare
  • A Woman owned business

This Christmas, when you shop small, you make a big difference.  Every purchase helps sustain local jobs, help us feed and care for our friendly and lovable herd of dairy goats, and you help to keep small business tradition alive!

Thank you for being part of our story.

You allow us to continue doing what we love.

From our workshop here in Cottonwood CA to your home - we say "Thank You".
