Rainforest Roots Shamanic Luxury Soap ~ Treasure from Peru

Rainforest Roots donates a portion of profits to a daughter of a local Matses indigenous family entering university. She wants to study natural sciences.

Hand-made by Mariella Landever Noriega with potent plant extracts, nourishing oils, and essential oils from the Peruvian Amazon rainforest.

A word from Mariella:

About Our Soap ~ My name is Mariella Landever Noriega, producer of Shamanic Luxury Soap. Growing up in Iquitos, Peru developed my respect and deep appreciation for the rainforest. The stark contrast between the polluted city and the vibrant rainforest, so near, drew me to the plants. My favorite practice with plants is the plant bath, covering the body with extracts of plants, which always makes me feel close to the rainforest. I began honing my skills in soap making in order to deliver a luxurious method to bring the plant bath to everyone, even those far from this region. My soap brings you the plant essences, its energy and aromas, for your wellbeing and upliftment. It also builds rural economy, reducing need to sell trees. I am proud to bring you this soap, which is good for you, good for society, and good for the planet.

Our soap prioritizes a connection with strong master plants from the Amazon rainforest. We maximize the amount of potent plant extracts in each bar so that the presence of the plant can be actually noted by those who have refined their senses in dieta. We then combine these in a saponification process with rich butters like cacao and copoazu, fine oils like aguaje and ungurahui, and pure essential oils like rosewood. We only use natural, health benefitting ingredients, and each batch is made in small quantities, under 15 bars, to carefully tend to the right feel. You can expect to feel your skin moisturized and regenerated, and your energetic body to feel refreshed. For best impact, use this ceremonially, setting an intention to remove harmful energies and attract uplifting energies. Light a candle and incense, apply and rinse a salt scrub, and then absorb the soap lather for a few minutes. Invite the spirit of the plant into your presence with appreciation, and make your request.

~A message from the creator, Stephen Cline~ 

Red Cedar Tallow was born out of love- for clean living, and for taking health into my own hands. I never imagined I’d be making and selling soap, but after diving deep into the harsh chemicals hiding in everyday products like soap, laundry detergent, and even toothpaste, I knew I had to make a change.

What started as a personal mission to create a cleaner, more natural alternative for myself and my partner quickly turned into something bigger. Once friends and family tried my homemade soap, word spread, and before I knew it, people were asking to buy it.

Dragon’s Blood (Sangre de Drago) (maker - Sacred Plants)

The Sacred Resin of Croton lechleri

This deep red resin from the Croton lechleri tree is revered for its powerful healing and antibacterial properties. Known as Sangre de Drago, it has been used for centuries by Indigenous peoples across South America for wound care, spiritual protection, and energetic cleansing.

Thick, concentrated, and fast-drying, this resin is a staple among Kambo practitioners—applied to burns post-ceremony to form a natural, antibacterial seal that supports healing and reduces scarring. Its effectiveness is largely attributed to the alkaloid taspine, which promotes cell regeneration and tissue repair.

Healing and Skin Protection

When applied topically, Dragon’s Blood creates a light, foamy layer that quickly dries into a durable protective film—acting as a natural bandage. It shields wounds from infection, supports rapid healing, and is water-resistant, making it a trusted remedy in both traditional and modern healing practices.

Cultural and Spiritual Significance

The use of Sangre de Drago spans centuries, with records from Spanish explorers in the 1600s noting its spiritual and medicinal use among tribes in Peru, Ecuador, and Mexico. The sap, which flows like blood when the bark is cut, is seen as a symbol of vitality and protection.

In spiritual work, Dragon’s Blood is often burned to purify spaces, clear dense energy, and create a focused, sacred atmosphere. It is commonly combined with botanicals like Sage or Palo Santo to enhance its cleansing effects and deepen spiritual connection.

Dragon’s Blood Ink & Spellcraft

Highly valued in magical traditions, Dragon’s Blood is a key ingredient in ritual inks used for writing spells, sigils, and protective symbols. Its bold red hue is believed to amplify the power of intention—making it a staple in rituals for love, success, protection, and energetic boundaries.

Storage & Quality

High-quality Dragon’s Blood resin is rich, dark red, and smooth in texture. Store in a sealed glass or PET bottle, away from light and heat, to preserve potency.

Blend Profile: Experience the prestigious Shanenawa Caneleiro Hapé from the Shanenawa tribe, a rare and finely crafted blend made from sweet scented plants and a balanced, grounding plant medicina.. This energetically balanced hapé offers strong but stable initial effects, characterized by a sharp and intense impact on the sinuses. 

As the initial storm of the mind subsides, it transitions to a gentle yet higher vibration experience, leaving behind pleasant after-tones without any disorientation. We are blessed to receive this from a very small tribe who usually do not make hapé for people outside of the tribe. The Shanenawa are known to make 3 different types of hapé within their tribe using a range of different plants and ashes. Two of the tribes peoples have been appointed by the chief to make hapé and continue the tradition. This would be considered a grey hapé and is a testament to the Shanenawa's expertise in creating exquisite blends.

Crafted by the revered artisan Leonel, this ceremonial-grade blend unites the purifying ashes of Pau d’Arco (Ipe Roxo)—harvested from the sacred Tabebuia tree—with two potent forms of Grandfather Herb. One variation, a fusion of Amazonian Moi and bold Arapiraca strains, is cultivated by a family with deep ancestral expertise. The other, a Fulni-ô specialty, is uniquely fermented underground with honey, enhancing its richness and potency. The result is a fine, aromatic powder that opens energetic pathways, encourages introspection, and invites a calm clarity of the mind. Often experienced as gently purgative and spiritually centering, this blend supports profound inner connection and alignment with the spirit.
