On the Inlet | Botanical Guest Soaps
There's something undeniably charming about a tiny bar of soap.
Our On the Inlet Guest Soaps are handcrafted using the very same traditional cold process recipe as our full-sized bars, just poured into a perfectly petite size. Scented with our signature blend of pure essential oils including peppermint, cedarwood, lavender, and rosemary, each little bar brings a refreshing piece of the West Coast to everyday rituals.
Perfect for welcoming overnight guests, stocking vacation rentals, boutique hotels, weddings, events, or simply keeping beside the bathroom sink, these little bars prove that thoughtful details are often the ones people remember most.
Each guest soap is handcrafted using the traditional cold process method, then cured for a minimum of four weeks before being hand-stamped with Poured in Tofino by The Hobbyist.
It's what's inside that counts:
Made with the same nourishing recipe as our full-sized Botanical Soap Collection: ethically sourced plant oils, mineral-rich clays, Vancouver Island sea salt, and our signature coastal blend of pure essential oils.
Guest soaps are sold in packs of 100 bars. Please allow approximately 10 business days for production before shipping, as every batch is made slowly by hand in our Tofino studio.
If you have a registered accommodation, hospitality business, or retail shop, we'd love to welcome you to our wholesale program. You can apply through our wholesale portal or reach out to us at hello@thehobbyist.ca to learn more.
