Hand-crafted in the Sierra Foothills, Bien-être Botanicals is dedicated to applying the healing power of nature’s ingredients to boost well-being and elevate body care. Our products realize the vision of entrepreneur Kathryn Cooper’s artistic and analytical sensibilities with small-batch essentials that leave your skin - and the environment - in its best condition.
Kathryn realized a passion for exploring the healing properties of nature’s ingredients after falling in love with traditional, cold-processed soap-making. A true artisan with a holistic, science-based approach to well-being, Kathryn spends hours on end in the soap studio, researching medicinal properties of oils, herbs, and natural materials and expertly blending ethically-sourced ingredients and natural fragrances to bolster their various inherent benefits. Captivated by these wonderful ingredients, Kathryn started a farm in the Sierra Foothills where she and her husband keep bees and cultivate fields of lavender and other herbs. What began with cold-processed soap became a range of bath and body care in collections designed to delight all of the senses — helping you unwind, stress less, soothe sore muscles, boost your energy, and lift your mood.
We offer consistent, cruelty-free, and sustainably-created bath and body care to boost your well-being. We take pride in our simple, readable ingredients lists which never contain harsh chemicals, synthetic detergents, artificial colors, or paraffin wax. We believe in self-care you can share and encourage gifting to yourself and those you love.
