Handmade Natural Soap & Self-Care
Handmade Natural Soap & Self-Care
Made in YUKON, Canada
A little bit of yukon - a whole lot to love
The pristine beauty and rugged landscapes of the North are a source of inspiration for us, shaping the essence of the soap and self-care offerings we create. We combine Indigenous plant knowledge with our passion for creating high-quality natural soaps. Nature provides many ingredients including wild rose petals, fireweed and sage. Our infusion of botanicals offers a unique Northern touch. They are filled with vitamins that nourish and cleanse even the most sensitive skin. We believe in keeping things natural. No harsh chemicals, parabens, artificial colourants or perfumes are added. We always keep it Yukon pure!
We take pride in being deeply rooted in our community
We are committed to teaching and empowering local youth, offering mentorship opportunities and workshops whenever possible.

Inspired by the Land
Welcome, we're glad you found us! Did you know? The Yukon is home to one of the largest areas of untouched wilderness left in the world. We take land stewardship seriously and offer you natural soap inspired by the land. One of our most popular soaps, Aurora's Passion is just one example.
From the majestic snow-capped mountains to the tranquil lakes and lush forests, the North's natural wonders instill a deep sense of purity that transcends into your self-care routine.

Honouring our Grandmothers
This line of soap is crafted with our grandmothers in mind. The plants they taught us to harvest respectfully are added, and each soap name translates to 'grandmother' in one of eight Yukon Indigenous languages. You might recognize the box design from their signature 'granny hankies.' Each soap bar is made with fair trade coconut oil and shea butter from our friends at Baraka Shea Butter. This high-quality shea butter contains Vitamins A & E, which can help many skin conditions, including eczema. Renowned for its emollient attributes, shea butter takes this line of soap to new heights of luxury.
The Yukon Soaps Company Story
Indigenous-owned and operated by Joella Hogan and her team in Mayo, Yukon. The Yukon Soaps Company connects people to the heart of the North through their self-care offerings. With articles written by HGTV, Cosmopolitan, Chatelaine and more, Yukon Soaps continues to be highlighted as the community-driven, empowering brand it is. When Joella moved to her grandmother's community, she was looking for a way to connect people to culture and to land. And she has done just that—from getting Elders and local children out on the land to gather wild botanicals to offering soap workshops and business mentorship opportunities. By teaching their team to harvest plants and spend time on the land, they are supporting the (re)connection and healing of their community.
