Who We Are

The soapmaking process is both an art and a science. It is a creative and fulfilling activity. We love creating beautiful, aromatic soap out of just a few, simple, raw materials.

Once a new recipe has been created, whether it be soap, lip balm or a novel product, we usually craft it within a few days. We are constantly involved in research and the development of new products to bring to you, our Customers

Our Online Store

Plumera began as a Mom in her kitchen making soap for fun. She was health-conscious and wanted to know what was going into the products that she and her family were using everyday. She also had an extensive background in science, so the process of saponification was quite a fascinating, creative outlet. Once she got started, it became a great hobby and it made gift-giving holidays easy and friends and family looked forward their soap every year. It grew into an Etsy store and now, we are here serving you.

Since its inception, Plumera has continued the tradition of all handmade products, always in small batches. This allows us to provide rigorous quality-control procedures and ensure that you are getting a great product every time. Additionally, because of our roots, we have a strong passion for educating our customers on the scientific process behind our products, we are a bit geeky about it. When you receive your product, we know you are going to love it just as much as we do!

Our Family

Plumera is a family owned and operated company. We work together to make all parts of the process happen as a unit. We help each other and, as a result, the end product is proof of our commitment to both the craft as well as each other. What began as a fun, craft project has grown into a full-blown business and our support of one another is the key to our success. Our love for one another translates into our products and we hope you will join our family too.

So Fresh and So Clean!

Lovely yet masculine smell that persists, not too strongly, throughout the day. Dare I say a deodorant replacement? I also have somewhat sensitive skin which after a week's use has helped to improve. Win-win and will be looking for more once this robust soap bar starts to dwindle. Thank you!!

Best in Nepal!

Plumera Essentials’ chapstick was an absolute lifesaver on my trek to Everest Base Camp! The high-altitude, cold winds, and dry air were brutal on my skin, but this chapstick held up incredibly well. Unlike other products that tend to wear off quickly, Plumera’s formula kept my lips protected and feeling hydrated throughout the journey. The minty flavor was refreshing and gave a cooling sensation, which was perfect after long hours of trekking. It’s truly a must-have for anyone venturing into harsh climates or just looking for a top-quality balm for everyday use. Highly recommend!

I love this!

I have been using this gold oil for several months now and it is definitely helping my skin. I notice a brightening effect and my fine lines look a bit better. Because it is an oil, I apply it at night before bed (after cleansing) and when I wake up in the morning, my skin is hydrated and looks fresh. The 2 oz bottle is a good size, larger than most skincare products so it lasts a long time. I love that it is all natural/chem-free and the 24 karat gold is a plus.
