Hi, I'm En. Born and raised in tropical Singapore, I moved to New York in 2008 to study art and design, which led me down the path of working in the creative field ever since.
I started Even Keel as a self-funded, passion project with the inital idea of just handcrafting biodegradable bar soaps that were freshly infused with organic botanicals and a bar that is truly safe for the environment. Most of these bars are marketed to outdoor enthusiasts and I wanted to bridge the gap between form and function – Why only limit these bars for the outdoors? Shouldn't ALL soap be this way? I started going through my self-care products, and realized I could apply this school of thought to many of the items I use on a daily basis – Where we focus on the aesthetics of the product without compromising on our promise towards a truly natural, non-toxic, and synthetic-free ingredient list.
Through the years, I've based all of my decisions on these core values when designing and formulating the collection. With the help of the team, all of Even Keel's products are handcrafted and we personally source, make and package every item from the studio to you.
Thanks for your interest, support and I hope you'll continue to join us through this journey!
