Moon Valley Organics (6)

There was a time when it used to be difficult to find organic skin care products that not only did the job, but avoided using harsh chemicals and other nasty ingredients. Thankfully, now there are more brands than ever offering safe and effective options to care for your skin. We love Moon Valley Organics for its delicious scents (grapefruit and thyme is a popular pick) combined with nourishing ingredients like beeswax, shea butter, and essential oils that work to cleanse skin without stripping it of natural oils. Our Thrive Market members are pretty smitten, too. Kate loves the hand soap because it’s easy for her kids to use and “gets the mud off,” and Jen loves the melting bar because it helps her skin feel moisturized, especially during the winter months.

The History of Moon Valley Organics

Moon Valley Organics was founded by Aaron and Kim Otto, who were inspired to create a line of ethical and sustainable personal care products like soaps and bars. Since 1998, the brand has continued its quest of bringing Certified Organic products to the masses, while sticking with its commitment to partnering with local farmers, beekeepers, and herbalists to source the best of what nature has to offer.

Moon Valley Organics Company Mission

Personal care products can still be affordable—and organic. Moon Valley Organics supports organic farms and farmers to inspire people to not only care for the planet, but for their bodies as well. The brand packages up simple ingredients into eco-friendly containers so you can scrub and lather your skin without worrying about harsh chemicals.

Benefits of Moon Valley Organics

Keeping things simple is a Moon Valley Organics motto, which is why its ingredients are minimal and free from artificial ingredients. All the packaging is eco-friendly, BPA-free, and 100 percent recyclable. The brand also partners with industry leaders to create some of its signature products. Recently, Moon Valley Organics collaborated with Dr. Daniel Newman and licensed herbalists to create a line of medicinal salves sustainably sourced from the Cascadia Bioregion in the Pacific Northwest. The brand also supports bees and promotes bee education in the community. For its line of herbal lip balm, 10 percent of proceeds are donated to organizations working to increase pollinator health.
