Base Ethical Soaps - Clean Conscience. Clean Skin.

The cedarwood and rosemary bar is one of a kind. Created for hard work, for those extra dirty hands. The crushed walnut shell added to this bar creates a strong exfoliator, which makes it a great bar for tougher jobs.

What began as a batch of Christmas gifts grew into something far more meaningful. Founded by a husband-and-wife team, one a PhD chemist, the other a passionate advocate for ethical living, Base Ethical Soaps has been handcrafting tens of thousands of bars and liquid soaps annually since 2017.

The ethos is disarmingly simple: give people the personal care products they use every day, made properly, with the most local, ethical and high-quality Australian ingredients possible.

A Social Enterprise With Purpose

Base is more than a soap company. As a social enterprise, profits flow directly into health projects for Australian communities. Every bar you buy contributes to something larger than a clean bathroom shelf — it funds real impact, right here at home.

Inspired by the Australian Landscape

The colours, textures and scents of the Southern Tablelands run through everything Base creates. This is Australian soil, Australian air and Australian ingenuity — bottled, pressed and lathered into your daily routine.

Natural. Vegan. Cruelty Free.

Every product is handcrafted from all-natural ingredients, entirely vegan and never tested on animals. The result is a range that works hard and remains gentle on your skin — because what's good for the planet should feel good on your body.

Sustainably Made

From ingredient sourcing to packaging, Base treads lightly. Natural formulations, sustainable materials and a genuine commitment to minimising environmental footprint sit at the heart of every decision made in their workshop.

Our family, our community, our planet — we are all connected. Base Ethical Soaps exists to honour that connection, one bar at a time.
