Ten Glorious Years
Ten Glorious Years
The Beginnings
It wasn't until about 2006 'till I was first affected by ringworm. I was fresh off the boat from Hawai'i and it was my first year as a freshman in college in Santa Barbara, CA. Between balancing my studies, partying, and jiu-jitsu, my usually good hygiene somehow took a backseat in the process. I woke up one morning with the itchiest knuckle in the world and upon further inspection, noticed a small, pink ring around it. A few scratchy days and about a hundred google searches later, I realized that I had become a victim of tinea, or ringworm. And yes, it is contagious. I told my jiu-jitsu professor at the time and he told me I would be watching the classes from the sidelines that week - I had become that guy, and it sucked.
The Search Begins
I searched the web high and low for a soap product that would prevent these viral skin infections. I swear I tried them all. They either smelled weird, had a weak lather, or worst of all, were way too expensive. One bar of soap I bought (and I won't reveal the name), came out to $25 after shipping and handling. Being a poor college-going mat rat, beyond budget was an understatement. I thought, "I can make a better soap bar!". I set out with the knowledge in my head and a goal to create the best fungus fighting soap product on the market for combat athletes.
A year later, I unveiled The Arm Bar—a soap that's packed with a custom blend of all-natural essential oils, butters, botanicals, and extracts designed specifically to combat mat-born infections.
Our five fungus-fighting liquid black belts come together in one super-powered combo pack - "The Original Potion" + "The Peppermint Potion" + "The Hawaiian Potion" + "The Milk n' Honey Potion" + "The Açaí Potion" - try each Sulfate and Paraben-free concoction one after the other and experience the Ultra-deep-clean that have made our body washes some of our most sought after products to date. Train hard. Stay clean.
In Batch #2, we have naturally increased the lather and foam of our liquid potion line. We've built upon our proven foundation of bacteria-killing, deep-cleansing surfactants by increasing lather performance while incorporating naturally-derived preservatives - all without compromising the plant-based integrity of our liquid soap.
Our surfactants are made up of fatty-acids from Coconuts and natural sugars.
*We still have a thousand bottles of "The Açaí Potion" left from Batch #1. The second batch will be added to this pack once it has sold out.
"The Original Potion" is our premier body wash formula designed for daily use after heavy training. This batch is infused with exfoliating local ground walnut shells, as well as our original fungus-fighting 5-oil blend proven to combat skin infections such as Ringworm and the dreaded Staphylococcus aureus.
In Batch #2, we have built upon our proven foundation of bacteria-killing, deep-cleansing surfactants by increasing lather performance while incorporating naturally-derived preservatives without compromising the pure plant-based integrity of our liquid soap. Our surfactants are made up of fatty-acids from Coconuts and natural sugars.
Ingredients: Tea Tree Oil, Eucalyptus Oil, Peppermint Oil, Lemongrass Oil, and Bergamot Oil, and made without any Parabens or Sulfates, our special blend is 100% safe for even the most sensitive skin and formulated to keep you on the mat.
Over a year in the making, "The Peppermint Potion" is the liquid body wash version of one of our most popular soap bars to date - "The Peppermint Batch." This formula is designed for daily use after heavy training.

Benefits
While cooling peppermint oil opens up pores in your post-training shower, our fungus-fighting, lab-tested, custom 3-oil blend can freely cleanse the pores of any accumulated mat-born bacteria. *Please use sparingly your first few uses as the frosty sensation can be intense...especially on some fresh Gi burn.
Active Ingredients: Tea Tree Oil, Lemon Grass Oil, Eucalyptus Oil, Peppermint Oil, Bergamot Oil, Shea Butter.
After almost a year of development, we at The Arm Bar Soap Co. are extremely proud to introduce "The Hawaiian Potion Batch #2" - building upon our beloved Aloha-filled liquid body wash version of one of our most highly-demanded soap bars - "The Hawaiian Batch."
In version 2, we have built upon our proven foundation of bacteria-killing, deep-cleansing surfactants by increasing lather performance while incorporating naturally-derived preservatives without compromising the pure plant-based integrity of our liquid soap. Our surfactants are made up of fatty-acids from Coconuts and natural sugars.
We journeyed home to the Hawaiian Islands to source most of the active naturals in each bottle. Each bottle is chock full of 100% Light roasted Kona Coffee Grounds from the Big Island, Bacteria fighting Noni Juice from Kaua'i, wound healing Lavender Oil from Maui, and deep-moisturizing Kuku’i Nut Oil from O'ahu. This formula is designed for daily use after heavy training.
Benefits
A potent blend of Maui-sourced Lavender oil and Australian Tea Tree Oil is the bacteria-fighting foundation of this powerful, creamy body wash and the aroma the combination produces is invigorating. Kaua'i-sourced Noni Juice was added to the formula due to it's richness in fatty-acids, Anthraquinones (anti-bacterial), and Scopoletin - a strong anti-fungal. We have also infused this batch with Kuku'i nut oil, an ancient Hawaiian remedy for dry skin and wound healing. Lastly, every bottle is rounded off with a healthy handful of 100% Kona Coffee Grounds which helps to scrub away free-radicals and exfoliate away dead skin acquired during heavy training.
Active Ingredients: Tea Tree Oil, Lavender Oil, Kuku'i Nut Oil, Noni Juice, Bergamot Oil.
