At Lady May, we don't make soap to chase trends or fill shelves. We make it because we believe your skin deserves better than detergents, fillers, and mystery chemistry.
Every bar of Lady May Tallow Soap & Suds is handcrafted the old-fashioned way — with simple, recognizable ingredients, slow curing, and the kind of care that shows up in the first lather.
What Makes Our Tallow Soap Different
Crafted for Real Skin
Our tallow soap is made from wholesome, grass-fed beef tallow and clean ingredients you can pronounce. No synthetic detergents. No petroleum derivatives. No fillers.
This is the bar people turn to after everything else has failed — especially those dealing with sensitive skin, eczema, or chronic dryness. It works with your skin, not against it.
Rich, Creamy Lather
The lather from Lady May soap is velvety, abundant, and satisfying in a way that makes daily washing feel like a small ritual. Customers describe it as "the kind of bubbles that make you pause for a moment."
Clean. Creamy. Consistent. Every time.
Subtle, Natural Scents
Whether you choose unscented or one of our custom blends, the fragrance is always clean and understated — never perfumey, never overpowering. You'll walk out of the shower smelling like yourself, just freshened.
Long-Lasting by Design
Each bar is cured slowly to develop a dense, hard structure that outlasts typical store-bought soap. One bar often lasts weeks, even with daily use — a small detail that speaks to the integrity of the process.
Safe for the Whole Family
Tallow soap has been trusted for generations. Kids, adults, beards, body, face — when the ingredients are this pure, it works for everyone.
Good for Your Home & the Planet
No microplastics. No harsh chemicals. Minimal packaging. Just clean ingredients and a return to the kind of soapmaking that respects both people and the earth.
Why Customers Keep Coming Back
Mechanics. Nurses. Farmers. Parents. People with skin sensitivities. They all say the same thing:
"It's the first soap that finally felt right."
That's not marketing. That's what happens when you strip away the unnecessary and focus on what actually works.
The Lady May Standard
We started in a family kitchen with a simple belief: skincare should be rooted in heritage, crafted with intention, and made from ingredients you'd be proud to use.
That belief still guides every bar we make.
If you've been searching for a soap that's gentle, effective, and made without compromise — this is it.
