Creative Juices
hello.
Camamu Soap is excited to announce its new owners, Stuart Bailey and Anca Bailey.
We’re a husband and wife team committed to green living, and continuing the ethos and mission of creating natural 100% organic skin care products through artisanal techniques.
In case you wondered, we will continue to produce and carry ALL of the original soaps designed by the creator of Camamu, Lori Basson, as well as keep raising the bar and expanding our 100% natural, gluten-free and vegan products for skin and haircare.
Stay tuned.
a little about Stu . . .
One of the few “natives” left in PDX, super creative and a futurist, somewhat of a renaissance man being a mixed media artist, and corporate creative who loves to cook, play guitar, jump off deep snow cornices in 19 degree weather, and invent things. When he’s in the garden, where their two zany dogs, Frankie and Mika play and talk for hours about squirrels and frisbee, his wicked sense of humor and general goof-ball ways unleash.
& a little about Anca…
Romanian by descent, her path took her through Germany, Washington D.C, the Bay Area and finally, yup finally to Portland. She’s a former psychotherapist who is now our organic skincare formulator extraordinaire. Her creative interests are boundless: painting, drawing, collage, encaustic, print-making, textile design, creating whimsical lamps and then... she loves to sew, felt, weave, and make magical organic potions from herbs and essential oils. When she’s done with that, it comes as no surprise she’s wildly creative in the kitchen too.
wowza!
