What Is Soapee? Sustainable Soap & Shampoo Bars Made from Coffee Grounds

What Is Soapee?


A Cleaner Way to Clean

Soapee is a handcrafted, eco-conscious brand of soap and shampoo bars made from one of the UK’s most abundant waste products: used coffee grounds.

We take something that’s usually thrown away and give it a new, beautiful purpose—helping you reduce waste, nourish your skin and hair, and embrace zero-waste living with every wash.


Why Coffee Grounds?

Every day, cafés and homes across the UK toss out tonnes of used coffee grounds. But coffee is full of natural goodness:

  • 🌿 Gentle exfoliation for smoother skin
  • Caffeine to boost circulation and skin vitality
  • 🌬️ Natural deodorizing properties
  • 🍃 Antioxidants to help fight free radicals
  • ♻️ A perfect ingredient to support a circular economy

By upcycling this rich, aromatic resource, Soapee helps reduce landfill waste and gives your daily routine a sustainable edge.


What Makes Soapee Special?

Soap + Shampoo in One Bar
Our bars are multi-purpose. Whether you’re washing your hands, face, body, or hair, Soapee delivers a deep yet gentle cleanse.

🌍 Made with the Planet in Mind

  • Locally sourced coffee grounds from UK cafés
  • Plastic-free, biodegradable packaging
  • Vegan, cruelty-free formulation
  • Handmade in small batches in the UK

🛁 Nourishing Ingredients
We pair coffee grounds with skin-loving oils like:

  • Coconut oil for hydration
  • Olive oil for softness
  • Shea butter for richness

Together, they create a bar that lathers beautifully, cleanses effectively, and feels amazing on your skin and scalp.


Soapee Is for People Who…

  • Care about where their products come from
  • Want to reduce plastic in their bathroom
  • Are tired of liquid soaps full of chemicals and fillers
  • Love natural, minimalist skincare
  • Want one product that works for everything – hands, body, hair

How We Make Soapee

  1. We partner with local independent cafés to collect their used coffee grounds.
  2. Grounds are carefully dried, cleaned, and inspected.
  3. We blend them with natural oils and ingredients into a rich, creamy soap base.
  4. Each bar is poured, cut, and cured by hand.
  5. Finished bars are packaged plastic-free and shipped across the UK.

It’s handmade, high-quality skincare — that just happens to help save the planet.


A Bar That Makes a Difference

Each Soapee bar saves waste from going to landfill and eliminates the need for bottled shampoo and body wash. It’s a small change with a big impact.
