about anima

this is anima. this is me.

At the end of 2024, something inside me stirred—a quiet longing to create something from nothing. Not just a brand, but a feeling. A ritual. Something real.

I had already let go of bottled body wash, choosing bar soaps to cut plastic and live more simply. That small change felt good. It felt like care. So I started making my own—by hand, with intention, from ingredients I could trace and trust.

That’s how anima was born.

In Italian, anima means “soul.” And that’s exactly what I put into every bar—love, attention, gratitude. No plastic. No waste. No empty promises. Just raw, real ingredients that nourish your skin and honor the earth.

Every bar is unique. A little imperfect. Completely human.

Made slowly. Made with care. Made to be felt.

When you choose anima, you’re not just buying soap.

You’re choosing a softer way to live. You’re choosing ritual over rush, purpose over packaging, care over convenience.

You’re doing your skin a favor—and the planet one, too.

And I’m so grateful you’re here.

I hope anima makes its way into your hands and your habits.

Because a bar of soap should feel like a little gift—

from my hands to yours.

From my heart to your skin.
