Meanwhile, Kerrie meticulously perfected small-batch soaps and skincare, carefully selecting ingredients to create effective, natural products. As they started sharing their creations with each other, they realized their individual talents were a perfect match. Elena's artistic touch complemented Kerrie’s detailed approach to formulation, and they decided to join forces, combining their hobbies into a single venture: Ocasio Soap Co.What began as a passion project quickly grew into something more. They dedicated themselves to the entire creative process—from sourcing sustainable, vegan ingredients to designing beautiful product labels. Their goal was to build a brand that promoted a purposeful and sustainable self-care ritual. They began selling their handmade products at a local farmers market, where they loved connecting with customers and sharing the benefits of their natural ingredients. The positive feedback and returning customers confirmed that their creations resonated with people. Their products are now a staple at two farmers markets, earning them a loyal following and glowing reviews.Beyond the business success, the most meaningful part of their journey has been the community they've discovered. They embraced the vibrant atmosphere of the farmers markets, connecting with other passionate artists, makers, and vendors. Ocasio Soap Co. has evolved into more than a business; it's a way for Kerrie and Elena to share their love for what they do and be part of a creative community that feels just as passionate and dedicated as they are.
