Meet the Makers
Meet Rachel:
Rachel creates all of Samskara's soaps and (coming soon) lotions. She lives with her husband and children near Raleigh, North Carolina, just a stone's throw away from her sister and business partner, Kirsten. She enjoys creating new recipes and products that will help and inspire people. Rachel also enjoys a number of other crafty endeavors, including knitting, crocheting, sewing, and cooking. She tries to take elements from each of these and bring that creativity into her soap making.

Meet Kirsten:
Kirsten creates all of Samskara's soy candles, solid perfumes, and solid colognes. Kirsten, her husband, and three sons happily reside in Raleigh, North Carolina which is just a hop, skip, and jump away from her older sister, Rachel. In her free time, Kirsten greatly enjoys channeling her creative energy into home DIY projects, vegetable and perennial flower gardening, drawing, and painting. Kirsten also enjoys running, reading, and hiking. Kirsten and her sister are planning their first long hiking/backpacking trip which will take place next year--a month long trip on the Appalachian Trail.
