Herban Beautanicals is a small, family-operated Texas business making high-quality soaps, shaving & beard care, lotion bars, and bath products by hand in small batches using only the finest botanicals & raw materials.

The idea to make quality soap & bath products began with making a hand & body lotion for my mother.  I have actually been making soaps & bath items for family since the early 2000’s.  Around that time, my mother developed a bothersome skin rash on her hands and feet…she was dealing with dry, sore, and cracked skin on her hands & feet. Her doctors tried various over-the-counter and prescription lotions and creams, with no positive results. They eventually discovered she was allergic to lanolin…a common ingredient in both prescription & over-the-counter lotions. I began researching skin conditions and ingredients in her products…I ended up developing my own solid lotion bar to moisturize, nourish, and sooth her skin that didn’t contain any harsh chemicals or potential irritants like lanolin. And then Butter Me Up! was born…a solid lotion bar that was nourishing, moisturizing, and free of lanolin & other ingredients that could irritate skin. More products followed as friends & family tried my recipes and asked for new items.

In 2006 I moved to Austin, TX with my first industrial job in the chemicals industry. As I continued to pay attention to ingredient labels, I researched the stuff in the products I used in the shower or bath and for shaving.
