About Us

Welcome to Little Turtle Soaps!

Hi, I'm Shannon Nelson, the owner and head creator here at Little Turtle Soaps. Since our establishment in 2015 in Upstate NY, we've been dedicated to delivering exceptional products and outstanding customer service. Our journey began as a tribute to someone very special to me – my dad. Together in 2015, we embarked on a journey to create a business that would bring joy and comfort to people's lives. Sadly, in July of 2016, my dad lost his battle with pancreatic cancer. It was then that I knew I had to honor him and everything he had done for me by continuing to build Little Turtle Soaps into what it is today.

At Little Turtle Soaps, we believe in the power of handmade craftsmanship and the importance of supporting local businesses. When you choose Little Turtle Soaps, you're not just purchasing a product; you're supporting a small business and a passionate artisan who puts heart into every creation.

We understand the importance of using ingredients that are gentle on your skin. That's why all of our products are carefully crafted using only the finest ingredients nature provides. Shannon, being a skilled artisan, combines traditional soap-making techniques with modern innovation to create soap bars that are not only visually appealing but also highly beneficial for your skin. Each soap bar is meticulously handcrafted with love and attention to detail, ensuring that you receive a product of the highest quality.

What sets us apart is our commitment to customization. We recognize that everyone has unique preferences when it comes to scents and colors. That's why we offer a variety of options, allowing you to personalize your soap to suit your individual taste. Whether you prefer a soothing lavender scent or a zesty citrus aroma, we have something for everyone.

Why choose Little Turtle Soaps over commercial products?

Our products are made in small batches, ensuring that we know exactly what goes into each product and allowing us to control the ingredients. This meticulous approach is not only better for your skin but also ensures that each soap maintains the highest quality standards. Unlike many commercial products found in stores, which often contain harsh chemical detergents that can dry and irritate your skin, our soaps are formulated to nourish and hydrate, using natural ingredients that promote healthy skin.

Thank you for choosing Little Turtle Soaps. We are honored to be a part of your self-care routine and to carry on the legacy of my dad. Together, let's embrace the little moments of indulgence and make every day a little more luxurious.
