About The Yukon Soaps Company

So much more than soap. Indigenous owned and operated, The Yukon Soaps Company creates beautiful, handmade soaps, shampoo bars, essential oil blends, and so much more. YSC is a community driven brand, featuring the talents of local artists and youth, allowing their creativity to shine. The Yukon Soaps Company combines Indigenous plant knowledge with their passion for creating self-care offerings that are imbued with traditions of the North. Their vast, beautiful wilderness provides many ingredients including wild rose petals, fireweed and sage. The infusion of handpicked botanicals makes their soap a unique Northern treasure- they are filled with vitamins that nourish and cleanse even the most sensitive skin. YSC believes in keeping things natural. No harsh chemicals, parabens, artificial colourants or perfumes are added. They always keep it Yukon pure! When she took on the company, Owner Joella Hogan was looking for a way to connect community to culture and to land. And she has done just that—from getting elders and local kids out in the forest to gather wild botanicals, to employing youth in her workshop, to offering crafting workshops and mentorship opportunities. For over ten years, The Yukon Soaps Company has been supporting economic diversification, authentic relationships with customers, and bringing life to the heart of the Yukon. The Yukon Soaps Company has become a household staple and souvenir of choice for visitors—take a little bit of the Yukon home with you.Read their story
