Thanks for the hunt Jack! Michael here, the maker of the brand Tree To Tub (can't quite call ourselves the makers of the soapberry since it grows from trees).
After a food, and an ed-tech (#500strong) company, I decided to an impact-oriented business with my buddy Brian. We hope to change the way we clean with the "purest" soap from nature, the Soapberry.
We went back to my hometown Taiwan, and partnered up with eco-reserves and local communities to sustainably harvest these wild soapberries to make the most natural & gentle shampoo & body wash. Why use harmful chemicals, when you can use the soap nature intended?
Give us any feedback or ask us anything, cheers!

@michael60716 This is just incredible Michael! We have such a weird relationship with soap, bacteria lol infocommercials of the 90s lol
Glad to see we're going back how it was before we had capitalistic hungry machines focusing on adding food coloring to gels and encourage harmonious living with the environment.
Can't wait to buy a bag of this for myself and my mom this week.
I'm also extremly sensitive to all of this man made stuff, I've had really bad reactions to some dyes and chemicals in soaps, I always focus on going more natural...this looks like it could be what I've been waiting for!!!!
@nicholassheriff Hey Nicholas, this type of message really means a lot to us! The way we understand cleaning today is vey twisted by all the advertising tricks (e.g. cleanness = chemical lathers + killing bacterias)
In body care products alone, there are more than 5000 different types of chemicals used, and less than 200 of them have been tested for safety. Lots of them are known carcinogens or pollutants and are still being used legally in many well-known brands.
It DOESN'T have to be like that! Civilizations (Indians, Chinese..) had stayed clean and healthy for thousands of years by trusting nature, we can do the same too!

@michael60716 Trying to use this code at checkout and it doesn't appear to be working...
Michael,
Can you give me some scientific peer-reviewed research on how FDA or CPSD approved soap contain "harmful chemicals" in amounts that pose a health risk to humans? Otherwise you are abusing (and promoting) people's chemophobia.
I'm not criticizing your product, only your message.
@larkef Hey Jord, I'd recommend doing some research yourself, with the understanding that U.S's FDA is sadly outdated, incompetent, and highly influenced by large corporations. A good way to start would be to understand how body care/cosmetic products are regulated here, and compare that to EU's regulations.
@michael60716 Sorry, but the burden of proof is on your end. I admire you and the company, but you can't just make such claims without proof to back it up.
These guys sold over $40k on kickstarter previously, and are backed by 500 startups.

Is this reetha? I remember using it when I was in India, it was AMAZING! So glad you guys made natural products with it!
Also michael is infallibly the one person I can always count on who says something, goes out and does it, and succeeds. So anything he does is going to be a big deal
@rebecca_hui LOL thanks for the kind words! and YES it's reetha! It's been used in India and different parts of subtropical Asia for thousands of years to help improve hair quality and treat skin conditions

How long does the 11oz. body wash last with normal use? Days, weeks, months?
@luccianoskoff YES! It has been used for thousands of years in India to improve the health of hair and skin. It's very noticeable after shower that your hair & skin feels smoother and softer.
