Would you like to have a plastic free bathroom?

There’s no single use plastic at Maldon Soap!  All my products come packaged in aluminium tins or bottles because aluminium is infinitely recylable!

The paper I use to wrap my soaps in is recyclable and any cellophane that  I use made from wood pulp and therefore compostable!

 So come and have a browse at my skin loving, planet friendly, cruelty free products.

It could be the best thing you ever did, because great skin needn’t cost the earth in any form!

There’s even free postage when you spend over £55.00

Hi.  I’m Sue McKenna and I’m the owner and creator of The Maldon Soap Company.

I’m a fifty something, menopausal mum and nan who has really sensitive skin and I was so fed up with not being able to find skincare to suit my reactive skin that I decided to make my own!

After a lot of trials and testing I launched The Maldon Soap Company on 18th July 2013 and I haven’t looked back since!

I make every product by hand, from scratch using fabulous ingredients that are local, organic, vegan and ethically sourced.

I don’t use tap water, parabens, sls, palm oil, mineral oil or artificial stabilisers in any of my products.  They have all been rigorously tested and have passed the ultimate test – my own super sensitive skin. if I can use them, you can too!

I have a great range of handmade soaps and skincare that won’t harm you or our planet.

Why Olive Oil Is So Good For Your Skin

Toner – necessary step or just a faff?

I had a conversation with a customer the other day who had never used a toner before and couldn't see the point of it.  And that got me thinking, is there anyone else who thinks that using a toner is an unnecessary step in your skincare routine and a bit of a faff? So...

My incredible customers are just the best! Below are a few recent comments about products and Maldon Soap in general.

I love Sue’s website, not only does she tell you exactly what’s in each product but also what each of the ingredients is good for. She goes to the trouble of doing lots of trial size products which is a great idea, it must be so time consuming filling lots of little pots and tins rather than full size ones. I love all of her packaging from the jars, bottles and tins, which are all just lovely! to the soaps, which are so beautifully wrapped in gorgeous papers. When your order arrives it is so beautifully packed in in lovely tissue and jars and tins in recyclable packing – even the noodles made from puffed wheat – it’s just all so fabulous!

I have been using the Camellia Rose Face cream on my poor parched menopausal face. It’s so wonderful – deeply moisturising but non-greasy and sinks in quickly. Arrived beautifully packaged and I’ll definitely be ordering some more soon

Wow, love that you have bought the shampoo bar back Sue. They are really being asked for a lot now. I have just started using one too and my hair loves it. I have not so long but curly hair which gets bit wild and woolly! Have not got a conditioner bar yet as just finishing a bottle, so once done with it, it will be over to you for conditioner bar. xx
