foaming hand wash
method + Lisa Congdon
it’s probably best to wash your hands and not think about where they’ve been. what you should think about is what you’re washing with. unless you’re already using our scent-sational hand wash. in which case, feel free to give yourself a high five. you’ve earned it.
citrus sunshine
a fragrance so radiant, you’d think we hid a pot of gold nearby. with refreshing notes of lemon zest + apricot, this bright, sunny scent could shine through rainclouds.
