🌿Don’t Be Rash: Made with Love (and a Little Sass)

Some of the things I make come from grief. Others come from memory.
This one? This one came from watching my grandkids come in from playing outside, scratching like crazy and looking miserable.

Every summer, it’s the same story—red, irritated skin from something they brushed up against while doing what kids do best: running wild and free. I wanted to give them something made with care—gentle, thoughtful, and cooling. Something that felt good on their skin and gave them a little comfort without the harsh stuff.

One day, after watching them scratch and squirm for the third time that week, I decided to do what I do best—head to the soap room and start mixing.

That’s how Don’t Be Rash was born.

A cold process soap with a crisp, clean scent—tea tree and peppermint to wake things up—and a blend of calamine, clay, oats, and butters that just feels good when your skin’s had a day.

Now?
They ask for it by name.
Whenever that familiar itch creeps in, they say, ā€œWhere’s that soap you made?ā€

It’s not a treatment. It’s not medicine.
It’s just made for the moments when skin feels off and a little extra care goes a long way.

And let’s be honest… sometimes it’s not just the kids who need it.
This bar’s for anyone who knows the outdoors are great—until they’re not.

Because comfort doesn’t have to be complicated.
Sometimes it starts with a good bar of soap—and someone who made it for you.

Because the ones we love are strong motivators,

Angie
