Vellum St Soap Company
The soap you wish your mouth got washed out with! We craft our soap the old school way, using lye. lard (tallow, duck, and goat fat as well!), and love.
Vellum Street Soap Company is a victual apothecary, basically meaning we don't believe you should put anything on your skin that you wouldn't put in your mouth. All of our cold process soaps are made from high quality, food grade ingredients, locally and sustainably sourced, with nothing added that doesn't have a beneficial purpose for your body. With our founders background as a chef, with a f

Some of history’s greatest and most iconic minds had equally great and iconic uniforms. Simplifying their wardrobes preserved brainpower for more important things.
Samurai had the kamishimo.
Einstein had the gray suit.
Steve Jobs had the black turtleneck.
I match my clothes to my truck.
Imagine what I’m saving my genius for.

It’s pretty fu***ng wild to watch what has happened to Tallow skin care.
A lot of us started making the stuff because we wanted to get closer to the ingredients, not further away.
Shorter ingredient lists, less processing, fewer middle men, knowing what we were putting on our skin and where the hell it actually came from.
Now you can buy a bucket of cosmetic grade Tallow from Amazon, pour it in a jar, slap a cow and “grass-fed” on the label and tout it as ancestrally premium. I don’t know if you know much about farming, but that Tallow didn’t “come” from Amazon, it came from somewhere else, and that somewhere else is an important question.
Did it come from a farmer who cares about their cattle and cares about the inputs on the land? Was it processed at super high heat multiple times, degrading some of those lipids that make Tallow oh so wonderful for our skin?
Grass fed tallow isn’t a source. It doesn’t necessarily mean fully free ranging cattle, and can mean almost nothing more than hay bales in a feedlot.
We’ve been hauling suet and rendered tallow long before TikTok discovered beef fat. Is it the easiest or most profitable way to do this? F**k no. But easy was never the point.
Knowing what was in the jar was 🐮💋
And yes, sometimes I curse a lot. Where do you think our tagline The Soap You Wish Your Mouth Got Washed Out With came from? Adios, amigos xox

Did we just drop a lil batch of these bad boys ahead of schedule for your Philadelphia moo-sturizing pleasure?
Guess you’ll have to visit the site to find out.
Would a different type of Philly small business have talked about dropping their new “Cherry J*wn” to capitalize on a played out trend?
Maybe, but I haven’t personally used that word since at least the early 2000s, and I ain’t planning to ever again. 🦈 🏍️
Will I continue to pronounce Water as Wooder?
You fu***ng betcha cuz my mouth refuses to enunciate it otherwise.
Pick your battles, baby 💋🍒💋

Some companies buy a sensible van.
I imported a 25 year old Japanese Kei Truck and painted it in my driveway with rattle cans.
5 years later and it’s still the most reliable vehicle I’ve ever owned.
The Scout? Well, she sure does look good while I’m sitting on the side of the road waiting for a tow truck 😝🐮💋

I’ve argued with plenty of men in my life, but not one has ever told me I was incapable of doing something.
Makes me wonder where some of y’all are finding these fellas.
I don’t start arguments, I just refuse to leave bad ideas unattended.
I’m thankful for all the men who have listened to my rants. We haven’t always agreed, but they’ve always let me finish.
The soap may wash your mouth out, but the commentary is permanent 🐮💋😝

I promise 🤗
48 years old.
Zero Botox, filler, laser, or even one single facial in my entire life.
Just over fifteen years of animal fats and plant extracts on my skin.
Genetics play a part, sure… but so does fat marshmallow.
Your ancestors survived an ice age, floods, famines, and plagues, and despite all that you’re STILL HERE.
If your skin truly needed 100 different products to function, your bloodline would’ve ended a very long time ago.
Less is more, moochacho.
I’ll enjoy my wrinkles and grays, earned from a life well lived, rather than erase the existence that crafted them.
Chicks dig scars, and we also dig some fu***ng character.
I find it’s better to be surprised when you look in the mirror than to spend your moments memorizing what you see in there 🐮💋xox
