Indigenous-Made Soaps

Meet Sequoia, a Proudly Indigenous brand, founded by Michaelee Lazore, a Kanien'kehá:ka (Mohawk) from Akwesáhsne and Northern Paiute from Nevada. Her journey began in 2002 when her passion for crafting beautiful soaps led her to leave her engineering job. Inspired by the Sequoia trees symbolizing strength and longevity, Michaelee embraced her Indigenous heritage.

Sequoia is committed to sustainability, local sourcing, and honoring the next seven generations. Their handcrafted products, like the Skywoman Candle, embody an ancient Iroquoian legend. This candle combines plumeria flowers, citruses, and ocean spray, crafted from a unique blend of natural waxes for a cool burn and easy tin repurposing. Phthalate-free fragrance oils and essential oils create an enchanting aroma, while mallow flowers add elegance.

Celebrate Sequoia's journey, embrace ancestral wisdom, and experience the Skywoman Candle's magic. Available in various sizes, it brings nature's wonders and inner strength to your space. Burn it mindfully, savoring the tranquil ambiance crafted just for you.
