Prokritee
Oat Natural Soap
The Be Still Oat Soap is handcrafted by artisans working with Sacred Mark, a workshop of our fair trade partner Prokritee. The artisans are women who have broken away from the sex trade and now make their living by making handmade luxurious soaps out of 100% natural ingredients. The name “Sacred Mark” was inspired by Nobel Prize winning Bengali poet Rabindranath Tagore.
