Brand overview
BareSoul is a Vietnamese natural beauty brand empowered by original and high-efficacy ingredients from tropical South East Asia. The brand, which draws inspiration from daily stories of busy modern women, is about minimalist, multi-functional and ready-to-go skincare. BareSoul quickly gained popularity in Vietnam within a year of its launch, and is highly praised by beauty editors, fashion magazines and consumers for its aesthetics, beautiful sensorial feel, originality and efficacy. Their products are widely distributed in spas, cosmetics and green stores. “Beautiful in your skin” captures BareSoul’s vision of empowering women to stay confident and authentic to themselves. Studying with Formula Botanica was a life-changing experience for Kate, and gave her the foundation and preparation she needed to launch her brand.
