A Spark Rekindled
My soapmaking journey began in 2013 with curiosity and creativity. After years devoted to raising my daughters, that passion returned in 2024 with renewed inspiration and a deeper sense of purpose.
One day, while praying and reflecting on this new beginning, I encountered a butterfly during a walk. Its delicate wings seemed not quite ready for flight, yet it lingered close, circling around me. That butterfuly is the one shown in this page and I named it Bobo.
That encounter reminded me that beautiful things often begin in fragile, imperfect places. Like a butterfly finding its wings, even the smallest beginnings hold the potential for transformation.
This inspiration became part of the heart of V Solae Co.—handcrafted soaps made with care, faith, and the hope of bringing beauty and kindness into everyday life.
Looking Ahead: BOBO
Inspired by that little butterfly, BOBO — Buy One, Bless One is a future initiative envisioned to extend the purpose of V Solae Co. beyond handcrafted soap.
As the business grows, the goal is to dedicate a portion of sales to improving hygiene for those in need, bringing health, dignity, and hope through simple acts of care.
One bar. One blessing. Beautiful ripples of change.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Whether you're a customer, boutique owner, or someone who appreciates products made with purpose, I'm grateful you're here.
Here's to small beginnings and beautiful ripples.
With appreciation,
Saeyoung Oh
Founder & Artisan of V Solae Co.
