This Garden-Inspired Hand Soap Collection Is So Summery—and Good for the Planet

If you're someone who decorates your home with the seasons, you know it's the details that really make a difference—and that includes your hand soaps. Instead of going with your basic lavender or lemon scents, eco-friendly home cleaning brand Blueland is here to provide you with a garden-inspired collection that screams summertime.

The new hand soaps were created in collaboration with social media influencer and foraging teacher, Alexis Nikole Nelson. Also known as @blackforager on social media, Nelson, as her handle implies, is an expert on all things foraging. She’s dedicated her very large platform (over 1.8 million followers on Instagram) to teaching others all about how to forage foods and flowers, while also showing off all her own creations.

From delicious drinks to freshly-foraged foods, there’s pretty much nothing Nelson can’t make. Now, in partnership with Blueland, she's foraged up three delicious-smelling hand soaps.

The new scents are all inspired by Nelson’s personal favorite foraging memories: Lilac Clove is a warm, clean blend of the classic summery flowers; Juneberry Basil is a combination of her favorite foraged fruit; and Beach Rose comes from her summers spent in New England with her family, featuring a mix of rose and ocean spray.

These hand soaps don’t just smell good. They’re good for the environment, too—they don’t use any plastic packaging. Instead, you get a pack of soap tablets in the scent of your choice. Just fill up a soap dispenser with water and drop the tablet inside.

The collection also comes with a convenient storage tin for all your tablets, along with hand soap refills in three different sets (or a variety pack of all of Nelson’s scents). You can also purchase the full hand soap kit, which comes with a storage tin, three refill tablets, a Forever glass soap dispenser, and a Blueland sticker sheet. The dispenser ensures you’ll never need to throw out a soap dispenser again.

All of the scents are made with clean ingredients, compostable packaging, and have no single-use plastics. They’re also designed to be cost-effective, with a pack of five soap refills available (plus, the tablets save you a lot of storage space). 

Nelson’s scent collection will only be available for a limited time, so don’t wait to get your hands on a pack of foraging-inspired soaps. You can shop the full collection at blueland.com.
