About Us
Our Story 🌺
Hi, I'm Sandra — a New York girl with Uruguayan roots, proudly based in Bluffton, South Carolina. I'm married to my high school sweetheart (yes, really 🥰), and together we're raising two amazing kids.
Before SoySandeeG, I spent my career as a Registered Nurse. Long days, longer nights — the kind of work that takes everything you've got. But it also taught me resilience, patience, and how to show up for the people you love, no matter what.
Where It All Began 🕯️
SoySandeeG started in the most meaningful way — at my mother's side.
While caring for my elderly mother during those long nights, I needed something to keep my hands busy and my spirit lifted. My mom loved perfumes. She was always chasing a new scent, always wanting to smell beautiful. So naturally, I turned to candles and wax melts — a craft we could explore together, discovering new fragrances and creating something special in the quiet hours of the night.
Those moments became some of my most treasured memories. Today, every candle I pour and every wax melt I craft is made in her memory. She may no longer be here, but her love for beautiful things lives on in every scent.
From Candles to Creativity 🎨
Designing labels for my candles sparked something in me. My creativity took over, and before long I was diving into the world of UVDTF wraps and decals — bold, vibrant, and full of personality.
My designs found their niche quickly: the proud Latina. Playful. A little sarcastic. Unapologetically herself. Whether you're repping your hispanic roots, your multicultural pride, or just living your best life — there's something here for you.
What We Stand For 💛
- 🌿 Handcrafted with heart — Every candle and wax melt is made with 100% natural soy wax and a whole lot of love.
- 🎨 Designs with soul — Our UVDTF wraps and decals celebrate Latina culture, identity, and that signature mix of pride and humor.
- 👩👧👦 Family first, always — This business was built on love — for my mother, my family, and my community.
- 💜 In loving memory — Every product carries a piece of the woman who inspired it all.
Thank you for being here. Thank you for supporting a small, woman-owned business rooted in culture, family, and corazón. It means everything.
Con mucho amor,
Sandra
