Our
story so far......
Welcome to Eden Water, an established award winning Scottish Natural Botanical Soap Company, rooted in nature and guided by craftsmanship.​
​
Our unique soap range offers a sensory experience as pure as the landscape that inspires us. Born from a lifelong love of traditional soapmaking and the healing power of nature, I create exquisite, all-natural plant-based soap enriched with therapeutic essential oils, botanicals and natural mineral extracts.
Each soap is unique, individually crafted with care, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to quality.
​
Eden Water has unwavering commitment to quality, integrity and the love of traditional soapmaking. We’ve spent years developing and perfecting our own formulations which are proudly unique and individually crafted with care. To ensure our high calibre and uniqueness we will remain an artisan small batch botanical soap maker.
Hi, I’m Rose Ann, founder of Eden Water. My appreciation for natural soap began in the 1980's when a simple, rustic soap bar was gifted by a natural soap maker in Findhorn, Scotland.
Natural soap was hard to find back then and determined to avoid harmful ingredients and irritating synthetic fragrance, I knew if I wanted a regular, affordable supply I had to produce my own.
​
My apprenticeship began, formulating allowed me to customise and control exactly what goes into my soap. I studied every soapmaking book/resource available and learned to formulate to suit my family's skin care needs.
Quality cant be rushed!
Traditional soapmaking is an age old tradition and offer something crafted with love, purpose, and care. Our beautiful soaps are slow cured to perfection for at least six weeks ensuring gentleness, quality, and longevity.
In by-gone days it took 10 years to become a master traditional soap maker and that really hasn't changed if you want a quality crafted soap bar.
​
More about me... Mother, grandmother and health conscious individual with a passion for cooking, nature, health, natural healing, perfumery, gardening/ botanicals/herbs, soap making and natural skincare/ bathing products.
Following a long and fulfilling career in Social Work—supporting women and children affected by domestic abuse—My own health challenges guided me to embrace a new path: one rooted in creativity, self-care and the restorative power of nature. With a deep appreciation for holistic well-being, I have trained a variety of complementary therapies including reflexology, aromatherapy, perfumery, massage, and reiki.​
​
Eden Water apothecary soaps are meticulously crafted in small batches using a time-honoured traditional method. Our unique formulations embrace the purity of nature, blending gentle botanical extracts to cleanse, replenish, and restore your skin’s natural balance. ​
​Our loyal customer base which has grown purely through word of mouth—a true reflection of our values and dedication to quality. We don't use sly marketing ploys or overpriced packaging that get passed directly to you, our customer. We offer simple quality products, wrapped in hand cut, eco friendly UK sourced paper.
​
​Although delighted soap making has increased in popularity which is wonderful for our skin and our environment, sadly the 'money making green band waggon' has also expanded, resulting in mass produced recipies for sale and poorer quality soap.
At Eden Water we offer uniqueness and quality and guarantee you'll never find mass produced purchased formulations or melt and pour soap base, eco sensitive palm oil, synthetic fragrances, artificial colours, or harsh chemicals in our products—just unique, pure, nourishing, value for money goodness directly from mother nature.
