Our Mission


Your skin is the largest organ in your body- and the most visible. It performs a variety of vital functions, many of which we take for granted- such as keeping the important stuff in, and the bad stuff out! At Scum Soaps, we believe you need to be good to your integument- and it will be good to you.

Serious Scum Changes

Scum has been working on some very large changes- some which may benefit us, but probably not you- the consumer. Especially if you are the kind of customer that prefers to buy from us at craft shows and in person.

The owner of Scum Soaps, meaning myself, has received a very wonderful opportunity: to work towards and obtain a doctorate degree in the field of microbiology from Virginia Tech. This opportunity is a blessing, and was something I could not let slip me by.

Although we will be moving out of New Jersey and into Virginia, Scum Soaps will still be available through our website, etsy, and other outlets. While in Virginia we hope to maintain contact with all of our NJ customers, and vow to better maintain our website by adding newer products immediately and more frequently.

Although the details are not yet known, we will be officially leaving the state the month of August, with our last NJ show (for now) being in Cape May. In between now and that time- myself and my helper Dominic will be getting married. So as you could imagine, we have been busy!

Forgive us for the lack of communication

Is it spring already?

It seems that spring has come unusually early this "winter". And with no winter, I've had no rest! Many people have already begun looking to, and preparing for warmer weather. Scum is no different- we have been working on some HUGE things I am excited to announce probably sometime in April. One of those things, however, is a new-and-improved, better than ever bug repellant. We are also turning our bug repellant into a limited edition soap, pet shampoo, and maybe even as a powder!


Also, as we move into the spring and summer seasons you will find more publications about our products, ingredients, uses, tips, and other important information about us. We aim to uphold a 'transparent' relationship with our customers- meaning, nothing is hidden from the people who are trusting us. And this trust is the foundation of an ideal customer/business relationship.
