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.
