About us
We believe protecting our environment is our personal responsibility.
For us, being mindful of how we purchase and use products in our daily lives, is a way to make a difference in our communities.
Daily actions are magic. Our habits not only shape the world, they shape us.
Empowering others through quality product choices, and making those choices easy and delightful is what we are here for.
We are honored to guide the REDBUDSUDS adventure forward from Grand Rapids, Michigan. This journey is more than getting clean and smelling fresh; its an active sustainable collaboration in protecting waterways, public lands, communities, and one another.
Onwards!

Our Mission
To use our love of adventure to spark simplicity and inspire action in everyday life.
We focus on what we can change, not on what we can't.
We hope by using our 4-in-1 shower bars you feel inspired to go beyond a thoughtfully clean shower into living a thoughtfully clean life.
What does a thoughtfully clean life look like?
Simplify your routines and lifestyle. Connect with the outdoors every day. Protect the land and water that sustain us.
And it can start with something as simple as the shower you take every day.
REDBUDSUDS is a reminder that there’s a better season ahead. It is more than something to get you clean; it’s a reminder that every day we make small but important choices that actually make a difference.
The Difference
Our shower bars are designed to give you everything you need for trail and home in just one bar.
- Less is more. 4-in-1 means shampoo, conditioner, body and shave soap, all in one.
- Thoughtfully clean. Our shower bars eliminate: preservatives, parabens, phthalates, plastic packaging, trips to the recycling bin, and explosions in your suitcase or backpack.
- Ingredients you can trust. We use only real, recognizable ingredients that are mostly organic and local when we can find them. You'll never see palm oil on our ingredient deck. Made in Michigan, we opt for a local, sustainably-produced alternative: pure locally-sourced lard! Just like our grandma's recipe.
- Benefits from plants. Rich conditioning from ingredients like fair trade shea butter and castor oil provide a thick, irresistible lather that's great for your skin and scalp without all the synthetic surfactants in conventional products.
- Mess-free delivery. With a shoofah (aka shower bar loofah bag), every bar becomes soap-on-a-rope. Shoofahs help generate amazing lather fast, make the bar last longer, help the bar dry quickly for easy storage, and keep your shower bar free from dirt, hair and debris.
- Members of 1% for the Planet. One percent of every sale goes to conservation. Do good with your green!
Chances are, you’ve gotten bitten by the adventure bug just like we did. Maybe it was the first time you saw an Appalachian sunrise or climbed a desert tower. Maybe it was the call of a loon echoing over a lake in the northwoods or riding the surf on the coast. These experiences change us forever, and if we let them, they can change the course of our lives. Small drops make an ocean.
Let's make waves!
