Why Pongo Handmade?
Pongo Handmade is a small-batch soap, candle, and incense studio based in Hampshire, made the slow way — by hand, in small quantities, with care.
Every product is palm-free, plastic-free, and cruelty-free, with ingredients chosen for how they're sourced, not just how they perform. That means no cello tape, no plastic labels, no plastic wrap — anywhere.
Want to make your own? We run private workshops where you can learn to make soap, bath salts, or incense from scratch.
And for every sale, 10% of profits go to the Orangutan Foundation, supporting orphaned orangutans in the wild.
Our Products
1
Palm oil free
None of our products contains palm oil.
We also donate 10% of our profits to the Orangutan Foundation, an NGO that rescues orphaned orangutans.
2
Plastic free
Zero. Nada. Not even a trace. Plastic free packaging is very important to us and we want to do our best to help the planet whilst delivering top notch skincare products.
3
Non comedogenic
We only use high quality oils that are non comedogenic, which means that they won't clog your pores and cause breakouts.
