Starting on Earth Day 2022, I teamed up with One Tree Planted and for every order, a tree will be planted in our beautiful, national parks.
I'm committed to reducing plastic waste, and protecting our natural environment. Hippie Candy soaps are wrapped in plastic-free packaging, and contain no harmful chemicals or additives. This helps keep pollutants and plastics out of our waterways and soil. It’s much more planet-friendly than body washes in plastic bottles—and it’s better for your skin, too.
Your shower is your door to a new destination. Close your eyes and open your senses, with all-natural scents that transport you into nature. My house-made essential oil blends are inspired by my travels, and I invite you to experience a new journey in every bar. No matter where you go (even if it’s just your own bathroom), Hippie Candy will ignite your sense of adventure, and inspire you to escape the everyday.
At Hippie Candy, I make every bar of soap with all-natural, non-toxic ingredients that are as good for the Earth as they are for your skin. My soaps are palm free, sulfate free, and made without artificial colors or toxic fragrances. So you can feel good knowing you’re taking care of your skin, while protecting the planet.
Most Americans have treasured memories of their experiences in national parks—and at Hippie Candy, I want to help protect these beautiful natural environments for future generations to enjoy. Starting on Earth Day 2022, I teamed up with One Tree Planted and for every order a tree gets planted in a National Park.
Taos is a place of great beauty, both natural and artistic. Set in the northern mountains of New Mexico, it’s home to breathtaking landscapes, talented artists, artisans and hippies, and a vibrant local culture with a rich history. It’s a place where nature is cherished and venerated, artists are inspired and supported, and crazy ideas—like taking a break from your day job to launch a soap company from a 225-year-old room with a kiva—are encouraged.
Hi. I’m Lauren Weliver, founder of Hippie Candy. I moved to Taos with my husband, Howard, in 2017. We had spent the previous three and a half years traveling across the country in our RV — and when we rolled through Taos, we finally felt at home. It was easy to fall in love with the art, culture, food, beauty and people of Taos, and we felt we had found our tribe.
I make every bar of Hippie Candy soap myself, from selecting and sourcing all-natural ingredients, to creating custom essential oil blends, to hand-pouring, cutting and stamping each small batch. I know when you try my soap, you’ll experience the same joy I do in making it.
I understand that shopping online without trying or sniffing a product can be intimidating. If for any reason, you aren't in LOVE with the scent you bought, i'll send you a new bar on me. No, it doesn’t matter if you’ve used the soap (in fact, I hope you tired it). Also, if you decide this isn't the soap for you, I’ll refund your purchase (yes, including shipping). I want your shopping experience at Hippie Candy to be 100% risk free!
