About Us

Mike’s Extraordinary Soap was born in 2018 when Mike was working Julia Cameron’s The Artists Way with a group of friends. What began as a hobby and creative escape, evolved into a business so that Mike could share his love for natural soap and sustainable skincare products with others.

Mike’s Soaps is a company that is dedicated to helping you nourish your skin while also being environmentally friendly. In 2018 our company’s CEO Micheal R. Brant began to look for good quality skincare products that were natural and not harmful to the skin. 

He was unable to find anything that really delivered. So he began to expand his own creativity and make handmade soap as a hobby. Mike enlisted his friends to try the different products he made, and they fell in love with handmade soap.

What began as a hobby, evolved into a full line of soap, bath bombs, and other skincare products, all aimed at helping Americans to get clean without the use of harmful or environmentally destructive chemicals.

We sell at the weekly Imperial Beach Farmer’s Market, various community events throughout San Diego County, and or course here on our website.

Why Handmade Soap?

Mike’s Soaps are handmade using sustainable ingredients, making them a great alternative for everyone, especially those with skin conditions such as psoriasis, rosacea, dermatitis, or eczema. If you have sensitive skin our hypoallergenic handmade soaps are formulated for you – they contain no added colorants or fragrances.

Handmade soap is very different from commercial soap that you can buy in stores. Most store bought brands contain harmful chemicals that are both bad for your body and the environment. 

Dry skin: Our natural soap contains glycerin, a sugar alcohol that helps to lock in moisture. Glycerin leaves the skin replenished and smooth. Commercial soap manufacturers generally extract the glycerin from soap, selling it as a additive for cosmetic manufacturers.

Oily skin: Our charcoal based soaps are ideal for oily skin. The added charcoal helps pull oil and free radicals out of your skin, leaving your skin perfectly balanced.

Sensitive Skin: If you have sensitive skin then our unscented soaps are perfect for you. Added fragrances can irritate sensitive skin so ours are unscented and contain no added colorants. They have natural and organic ingredients in them like turmeric, goats milk, coconut milk and more!

Classic Recipes, Modern Twist

Soapmaking is an ancient practice, originally brought from the levant to the mediterranean during the crusades. We use the same process that the Palestinians developed thousands of years ago, but add our own modern twist.

Nourish Your Skin

Glycerin is an emollient that softens and maintains water balance by attracting moisture to your skin. Most commercial soaps extract it in order to sell to the beauty industry for other luxury products. We leave it all in – keeping your skin healthy, nourished and moisturized.
