Hand Made. Pure & Simple.

Our Hand and Body Lotions are lightweight but intensely moisturizing, equally delightful as a hand lotion at the kitchen sink or as a body lotion after a nice hot shower. And like all our products, they are free of sulfates, artificial colors, artificial fragrances, phthalates, and palm oil.

Dorset Daughters was founded on three basic principles: family, community and sustainable living.

At Dorset Daughters we are energized by a family tradition of hard work and intellectual curiosity dating back hundreds of years. When the marble quarries of Dorset were cutting stones for the New York Public Library, and the spring waters that form the Gilbert Brook ran through abundant apple orchards and green pastures teaming with grazing sheep on their way to the Battenkill River, the family farm that Dorset Daughters now calls home stood as a central gathering place for both family and community. Today that family home is still here, alive and well, as are the spring waters of the Gilbert Brook which are a key ingredient in our handcrafted skin products.

Dorset Daughters is proud of our Vermont heritage, and by sourcing only the finest renewable, natural and responsibly-sourced ingredients through a local network of friends and partners, you can feel confident knowing that our products will nourish not only your body, but also the environment that we all share. And, our no-nonsense formulations reflect a stalwart commitment to clean beauty standards: if an ingredient isn’t essential, we don’t use it. Pure and simple.
