About Us

Happy Soul Soap was born from love, loss, and the healing power of creating something beautiful.

In November of 2021, I lost my extraordinary mom. She was my anchor, and losing her was the most devastating experience of my life. Grief swept in and left me overwhelmed, ungrounded, and unsure how to move forward.

One day, while mindlessly doom-scrolling on TikTok, I stumbled across handmade soap makers creating the most gorgeous bars—full of color, artistry, and fragrance. Something in me lit up. I became instantly obsessed and started researching how to make soap myself.

The first time I blended oils, poured a mold, and cut that initial bar… something shifted. Soap making became my therapy. It brought creativity, joy, and purpose back into my life in a way I never expected. What started as a lifeline slowly became a passion—and then a calling.

A Family-Created Labor of Love

As the soaps grew more beautiful, more aromatic, and more luxurious, my family joined me in the process. My husband, Bob, fell in love with fragrances and quickly became the “Chief Candle Maker,” sniff-testing scent combinations like fine wines. My boys jumped in too—helping with designs, brainstorming names (and definitely rejecting a few!), labeling, packing, and shipping.

Happy Soul Soap isn’t just a business. It’s a family project born from healing and carried by love.

Crafted With the Highest-Quality Ingredients

From the beginning, quality has been my non-negotiable. Each bar is handcrafted in small batches using premium oils and butters like coconut, olive, avocado, and shea. These ingredients create a rich, velvety lather that cleanses gently and deeply nourishes the skin.

If an ingredient doesn’t hydrate, soothe, or elevate the experience, it doesn’t go in. Every bar is a blend of skin-loving oils,natural clays, botanicals, or exfoliants—carefully chosen to create a soap that feels indulgent from the first use to the last sliver.

Fragrances That Transform Your Day

Scent has a remarkable ability to shift mood and emotion, and for me, fragrance became part of my healing journey. That’s why we use only high-quality fragrance oils and essential oils—chosen for their depth, safety, and complexity.

Whether it’s an uplifting citrus, a cozy gourmand, a soothing floral, or a calming spa blend, each bar is crafted to turn your shower into a sensory escape. These aren’t ordinary scents—they’re beautifully balanced, long-lasting, and layered to make you feel something.

From Grief to Joy — and From Our Hands to Yours

Happy Soul Soap is a reminder that beauty can be born from heartbreak. That creativity can help us heal. And that simple, everyday moments—like a fragrant shower—can bring comfort, peace, and even joy.

Today, every bar we make carries that story:
• a touch of luxury,
• a moment of calm,
• and a piece of our family’s heart.

We remain committed to:

  • Using the highest-quality ingredients

  • Perfecting fragrance blends that elevate your spirit

  • Creating small-batch, handcrafted soaps with intention

  • Infusing love and care into everything we make

I’m endlessly grateful that this passion found me when I needed it most—and even more grateful to share it with you.

From our hearts to your home, Happy Soul Soap is here to nurture your skin, lift your mood, and bring a little more happiness to your soul.

With Love,
