Hi! I’m Ryan, founder of Chubby Girl Soaps & Candle Co.

I’ve been making soap and candles since 2011. Originally from Montana, when my spouse’s business moved us to Nevada, the dry, arid climate of Nevada began taking a toll on my skin. So, I started experimenting with homemade soapmaking. Over time, this hobby grew into the business I have today.

Why “Chubby Girl” Soap & Candle Co. for our name?

Chubby Girl was the nickname of our beloved English Bulldog, Charity. She was our baby and the light of our lives. Charity loved attending farmers’ markets, craft fairs, and gatherings of any kind. Sadly, she passed away on August 6th, 2019 due to cancer - her ninth birthday. Now we welcome Gunner, the C.E.O.-in-training. Gunner was a rescue from the New Mexico chapter of the Bulldog Rescue Club of America. Gunner is a typical bulldog - sleeping all day and always hungry!

All soaps are made with Coconut oil, Olive oil, Avocado oil, Goat milk, Sodium Hydroxide, 100% pure essential oils, or fragrance oils.
