About Rainforest Organics Natural Soap Co.

     Officially Rainforest Organics Natural Soap Co. began in May 2003, however its true beginning goes back much further than that.

     Founded by Melanie Stoiber, Rainforest Organics Natural Soap Co. was born from a need for a more natural and toxin-free lifestyle.  In the years leading up to the official founding of the business, Melanie had been suffering from multiple chemical sensitivities, although at that time, they were referred to as 'allergies' or she was advised this was just the way her body dealt with stress. 

     Melanie and her husband Dennis, as so many other wise and health-conscious consumers today, decided that they had to take things into their own hands.  Through endless research in libraries, on the internet, and by asking questions of anyone they felt might be able to help, they finally realized what they needed to know. 

     What they now knew was that they didn't really know anything! 

     They didn't know what was truly in the skin care products that they were using, and due to 'trade-secrets' they weren't even entitled to find out that information.  Dennis and Melanie even went so far as to contact a huge corporate manufacturer regarding their soap and Melanie's skin sensitivity concerns, only to be advised that no ingredient information would be given due to trade-secret privacy. 

     They also didn't know what testing the individual ingredients had gone through prior to being added to personal care products, like their soap or tooth paste.  Why?  Because according to the Environmental Working Group only 11% of cosmetic ingredients have been reviewed by the CIR (Cosmetic Ingredient Review) safety panel.  So what about the other 89% of ingredients that remain in 99% of cosmetic products on the market.

     They say that necessity is the mother of invention, and who better to turn to than Mother Nature herself!  It was in herbs, flowers, and vegetable oils that Dennis and Melanie found what they were looking for.  Doing much research, and of course going through a fair amount of trial and error they developed the products which now carry the Rainforest Organics name. 

     What started out as only soap (Castile being the first), has now grown into a entire line of diverse and 100% Natural Skin Care Products.  Limited only to what Mother Earth can provide, the line will continue to grow in the future.

     They have an ongoing commitment to using only the highest quality ingredients available - and listing every single one used, right on the label in plain English.  They also avoid any animal products, with the exception of beeswax in a few products, and NEVER turn to synthetics.  The products are also paraben and pthalate free!

     If it can't be found in Nature, then you won't find it at Rainforest Organics Natural Soap Co.!  If Mother Nature didn't see a need for it, than neither does Rainforest Organics.   Well, you get the idea. 

     Realizing that today's developments and technologies (and certain synthetics)definately have there place in the World, Rainforest Organics is only trying to keep a bit of green where possible.  We could all stand to walk a little softer on the Earth.  And remember, it feels good to use Natural products; it feels twice as good to use them with a friend.

     Dennis, Melanie and the team at Rainforest Organics love hearing from visitors to the site.  If you do have any comments, questions, or concerns please don't hesitate to contact them.
