### My story

Hey, I'm Archana. Skincare is my jam, and Soaps & More is basically my second home. Started out just mixing up soaps for fun, friends pushed me to sell, and now here we are. Nights packing orders, juggling mom-life, lots of 'business karegi?' from folks. Not easy, but I love it. Real skin’s got texture, pores, and I’m all about keeping it honest. Small batches, no nasties, just care.
