About Us

PURE ELIXIR was created in response to the lack of products readily available that don ’t contain detergents, petro chemicals and other potentially harmful ingredients.

Our company is very conscientious of the impact on the environment of it’s products, packaging and manufacturing process. We use only eco-friendly stainless steel melting tanks. Low water and energy consumption is very important to PURE ELIXIR. All of our packaging is recyclable. Our soap is bio-degradable and safe for the environment and your skin.

PURE ELIXIR was launched by Alyssa Young of Fort Collins, Colorado. In the early 80 ’s Alyssa was living in New Zealand. It was here that she developed an interest in skin and beauty products made entirely from natural ingredients. Ms. Young has a degree in graphic design, has studied business management, and has been an entrepreneur since 1983.

“I see soap as a unique art medium. First, there is the play of transparent versus opaque. By adding natural botanical powders and extracts I get unusual textures. Ingredients like shea butter make the bars extra silky, and the natural and food grade pigments are exciting to work with. The addition of fragrance adds a new dimension to the creative process, as it ’s unique to this type of product. And finally, natural and organic exfoliants make the soap interesting to look at and exhilarating to use.

I actually have to work at not making the soap too beautiful, strange as that sounds, because I want people to use them! I don ’t want them sitting on the counter of someone’s guest bath for years. They are meant be experienced.”

Each bar of Pure Elixir soap is lovingly made, and packaged by hand. Quality control is of utmost importance, including using the highest grade ingredients, and conscientious production methods. Creating quality products that are good for all skin types is our goal.
