About Us
How did Simply Soap by Dr. Soaper come about? Back in 2007, Dr. Anita Montes, who is an OB GYN in North Carolina, had her own practice in a small building with 2 offices. She worked out of one office, but instead of renting out the other office, she decided to open a consignment shop for local artists. One of those artists was a soap-maker. Of course an avid shopper, Dr. Montes needed to try the soap. It was her first time using handmade soap and it changed her life forever. She has used absolutely no store bought soap since. Unfortunately a few years later, she closed the shop and therefore cut off her own access to the soap!
Being a scientist at heart Dr. Montes set her mind to learning how to make soap on her own. It took a while but eventually, Dr. Soaper was born. She has been making soap ever since and mostly selling it at local festivals or to friends and neighbors. In the midst of the pandemic however, she decided to step up her game and start selling on Etsy. She is now certified by the Handcrafted Soap and Cosmetic Guild as an advanced soap maker. She continues to expand her reach with current participation in both the ETSY and GoImagine handcraft marketplaces as well as her www.drsoaper.com website.
Still making each creation on her own and in small batches, she is dedicated to all natural products as well as making every effort to maintain a nearly zero waste approach to all packaging. She is constantly expanding her line of products and has no plans to stop anytime soon. Soaping is indeed her passion.

Let customers speak for us
This works great on my face and is not drying, but leaves skin feeling clean and fresh. I love all Dr Soaper’s products that I’ve tried. I’m happy to find affordable, natural, great products that work so well and are not wasteful.
I love this product! Been getting my hair back since chemo, so it’s been crazy lengths at times and unruly. It’s still pretty short, and this product helps me manage it and style it as good as I can. It’s not greasy and I love that I can just run my fingers through it to give it body. I love that it’s natural, and it smells great, too!
I’ve tried different Simply Soap Goat Milk soaps and love each one of these! I feel good knowing I’m using products that are natural and good for my body. I love them all!
Love all the Goat Milk soaps by Simply Soap! They smell great, are natural, and make me feel great!
I had cancer and during my treatments I was looking for more natural products to use. My daughter bought me several bars of goat milk soap from Simply Soap. I used them on my head, face, and body then and continue to use them. I have recently added more of these products and have not been disappointed!
This is my 2nd time ordering. I wanted a more natural line of products and discovered Simply Soap. This moisturizer is light, absorbs well, and leaves my skin feeling very soft and smooth.
I love that it takes so little product and it moisturizes my hair so well and makes it less frizzy. I’ve just recently started using this, but so far I’m impressed.
I have just started using the shampoo bars, but I’m already loving it. It doesn’t take much, lathers nicely, smells so good, and leaves my hair feeling and smelling great!
Dr. Soaper's products are always a joy to receive, use and to give as gifts! I will definitely reorder!
Love love. Bought for my daughter who is reducing plastic and chemicals in her life.
Terrific. Once you try it you won't go back.
Keeps this face soft in the northern cold.
Awesome product. I keep coming back for more.
Love it! This is my first time trying a conditioner bar and it made my hair feel so soft! Shipped super fast and was in cute package. Will definitely order again and highly recommend it!
Great soap, the only kind my husband will use!
