All Things Sunlit Mountain
Simple. Sunny. Sustainable. That’s our business.
Eco Packaging
No crappy plastic from China. All packaging is produced in USA: glass, metal, unbleached kraft paper, tree-free paper, reused materials, post-consumer recycled paper.
Slavery Not Welcome
We research the heck out of the origins of our materials. We won't buy ingredients or packaging from companies who engage in human slavery or other forms of exploitation.
Sustainability Focused
We use renewable energy and are concious of our carbon footprint. In the words of Gandhi, "You must be the change you want to see in the world."
Women-Owned
All women all the time. We are as strong and mighty as we are caring and nurturing, because we believe we can be both.

The origins of Sunlit Mountain are quite simple.
It all started with a headache.
Headaches, watery eyes, nausea, rash, and dizziness have been my body’s usual response to mainstream hand soaps, shampoos, shaving creams, dishwashing liquids, laundry detergents, and other household cleaners.
Nearly two decades ago, I began making my own quality goods using raw, pure ingredients. It was an act of practicality and necessity.
For years, I was content with formulating my homemade products for myself, family, and friends. Easy peasy. A fun hobby of sorts.
Meanwhile, the outside world was shifting…
Consumers started demanding that manufacturers stop using garbage ingredients. There was also a push for sustainable packaging.
Companies responded to customers’ needs for less toxic formulations by launching new so-called “green” product lines. But corporations failed miserably at utilizing truly eco-friendly plastic-free packaging.
So I solved the problem.
I created Sunlit Mountain to bring forth great goods for bath, body, and home… and to package those goods in simple eco-friendly packaging, 99% of which is plastic-free.
Simple. Sunny. Sustainable. That’s our business.
We’re fervent about sticking to our mission. For example, do you know of any other company aside from Sunlit Mountain who produces hand sanitizer in a glass bottle? I don’t.
This high level of commitment towards creating exceptional natural products in recyclable, reusable, and/or biodegradable packaging can be found in all our merchandise. Explore more by taking a trek to the Sunlit Mountain store.
