Ollie Skincare is a small, woman-owned skincare maker in Wisconsin, founded by formulator Kerrieanne Lischka and named after her French Bulldog, Ollie. It started with goat milk soap made from the family's own dairy goats. Today we handmake goat milk soap, facial oils, balms and body care in small batches, with short ingredient lists and local ingredients like sunflower oil from Century Sun Oil in Pulaski, Wisconsin.
This blog is where we answer the questions we hear most at markets: what's actually in your products, how to care for dry or sensitive skin, and how to keep your routine simple.
