Celebrate the changing of the seasons with our seasonal soaps subscription box! Every three months you'll receive four bars of soap - two of each of our newest seasonal soaps - before they're released to the public.

Our seasonal soaps are handmade here in Tacoma, palm oil-free, and vegan, and our scent combinations are carefully selected to be the best representation of the coming season.

Makes a great gift for yourself or a friend!

Your first subscription will be delivered following your order. All future subscriptions will renew on November 19, February 19, May 19, and August 19.

🌎 You care about the planet. So do we.

Look. I get it. It’s HARD to be an EcoWarrior. Someone who cares about the planet and wants the most sustainable products available - from the ingredients to the packaging to the way that product gets to your hands.

It seems like everywhere we turn, someone, somewhere, is greenwashing us.

But our superpower at A Drop in the Ocean is sorting through the BS, calling it out, and making sure our products are the absolute most sustainable and truly zero waste products we can find.

So on top of all the things we mentioned above about what makes our zero waste seasonal soaps subscription box so sustainable, here’s a few other things you should know:

  • We’re actually practicing what we preach behind the scenes. In 2022, we saved all of our trash for four months, and wrote a whole blog post on it. The tl;dr version is this: in four months, we only produced two pounds of trash. Everything from the packaging our products come in down to the Sharpie we use to write “Fragile” on your box is zero waste to its core.
  • We’re an online-only zero waste store - which is highly intentional. It may seem counter-intuitive, but online shopping is actually more sustainable than in-person. I’m a data nerd at heart and I love diving into the research, and there are countless studies that have shown that online shopping is the most sustainable way to get your everyday essentials. Don’t believe me? Check out our whole blog post on the sustainability of online shopping.
  • We ship ugly boxes. Your order from A Drop in the Ocean is not going to arrive in a pretty, branded box. It’s gonna show up in a reused tea box, or a donated Amazon box, or maybe even an inside-out Girl Scout Cookies box. All of our shipping materials are always 100% plastic-free and reused as much as possible, with curbside-recyclable paper tape and a post-consumer recycled paper shipping label. It won’t be pretty, but it will be zero waste.

Got more questions about our zero waste products or our practices behind the scenes? Just send us an email! I’m always happy to chat all things eco.

We ship ugly boxes

Our commitment to sustainability doesn't end when you press that checkout button.

We pack all of our orders in reused boxes and envelopes, with reused paper packaging, post-consumer recycled paper labels, and even paper tape.

You may not get an IG-worthy unboxing, but you will get the most sustainable packaging we can possibly find.

Oh and did we mention our shipping is always carbon negative?

Let's go to the real winner in my eyes. Honestly, I could have purchased this exact product many other places, but the packaging A Drop in the Ocean uses to ship will have me coming back time and time gain.

My first purchase from them was some floss a while ago and it arrived in a reused tea box with a hand written note that was written on scrap paper. I was blown away.

I had never seen a company who claimed to be sustainable ACTUALLY prove to be sustainable through and through. The fact that every piece of the packaging was reused and minimal will have me come back over and over again. If I can purchase it here, I will purchase it here.

Seasonal soaps

This soap smells SO GOOD. I loved the summer scents, but the fall pumpkin spice latte is delicious. I'm neutral on pumpkin spice anything, but the coffee scent makes the whole shower smell good. Can't wait for future scents!

Fresh and clean

This soap is so fragrant and smells amazing! I can smell it as soon as I walk into the bathroom. Its fragrance is more potent than the wall plug in I have! Yet the scent doesn’t leave traces of chemical formulation in your nose, just fresh and fruity. The soap cleans well, leaves behind no feelings of residue and doesn’t dry out my hands. Even the aesthetic is great - the colors are beautiful sitting in the soap tray.
