Sustainable Sourcing
Our founder harnesses the power of organic, U.S. farm grown flowers to develop herbal blends that are not only more gentle and earth-conscious than essential oils, but also clinically-proven to be irritant-free, safe and effective at caring for sensitive skin. We are committed to sustainability in every aspect of our products.Gently products are - and will always be - plastic free.
Positive Impact
We spread the joy beyond skincare and are dedicated to giving back to our communities.
Through our LOVE GENTLY initiative, we donate misshapen but perfectly usable bar soaps to local non-profit organizations committed to serving the homeless community and survivors of sexual and domestic violence. In addition to our community efforts, Gently is proud to support the David and Evelyn Knauft Fund for the University of Georgia Office of Service-Learning. This donation honors our founder Kristenās horticultural research mentor, who remains an active supporter of the Gently vision. By contributing to this fund, we promote service-learning in environmental and agricultural sciences, fostering the next generation of innovators and community leaders.
Deep Roots
At Gently, we honor our founderās agricultural heritage and her personal journey with eczema, both of which inspired the creation of our gentle, effective skincare products. Marrying her personal need for skin care products that didnāt irritate sensitive skin, and her passion for bringing people together through the power of plants, Kristen Dunning āgrewā a skincare brand. We are proud that our products not only meet a need and provide relief for people with sensitive skin, but honor the roots that Kristenās grandparents laid in the rich soil of Dixons Mills, Alabama.

FAQ
Why is fragrance-free soap better for my sensitive skin?Ā
Fragrances are complex and can contain multiple synthetic and/or chemical ingredients. Because of the sensitivity of our skin, any one with sensitive skin or common skin conditions, such as eczema and psoriasis, are better off using products that avoid fragrance altogether.Ā
Why donāt you use essential oils?
Many times, people with sensitive skin also have skin that is allergenic. The concentration of essential oils increases the chances of your skin being irritated or having an adverse reaction. Because of this our founder can never use a skin care product that has essential oils in its ingredient line-up, we figure that she is not alone.Ā
Do your bar soaps have a scent?Ā
We get this question a lot and for good reason. Logically without fragrance or essential oilsā¦an aroma would not exist right?
Well, since we infuse our saponified oils with herbs, most of those aromatic, and even beneficial, properties many love still come through in our bar soap!Ā
Why do you only sell bar soap and not body wash or liquid soap?
We hear youā¦bar soap is not for everyone. Our founderās own mother loves a great body wash and asks all the time when her favorite soap may get a liquid companion. Gently is dedicated to sustainability and environmental integrity, a value we stated very early on. We strive to do our part to decrease the prevalence of single-use plastic packaging in the personal care industry. Just give us some time and continue to support us in our growth, we got you.
