MAMA BEHIND THE MADNESS
• OUR STORY •
Hey babes! I’m Hailey, the proud owner of The Happy Orchid Design Co. and the mama behind the madness! I live in a small Texas town with the absolute love of my life and our four beautiful daughters—1, 4, 10 and 13. Life is wonderfully chaotic, filled with love, laughter, and never a moment of silence. (Mom life, am I right? But we wouldn't have it any other way!)
This journey started as a simple side-hustle during the pandemic—just a creative outlet to help support my family while staying home with my babies. But what started as a passion project quickly grew into something bigger than I ever imagined, allowing me to follow my dream of building a business while still being present with my family.
While I love creating top-quality tees and trendy tumblers amongst all of our many other products, my true passion has always been natural skincare. Having struggled with sensitive skin my whole life—and then having four daughters with the same issues—I was exhausted from scanning labels on store-bought products, seeing long complicated ingredient lists, and realizing how many toxic chemicals we were unknowingly putting on our already hyper-sensitive skin.
So, I took matters into my own hands.
I started formulating skincare products, mostly just for myself and my family at first, carefully crafting each one with safe, natural, and nourishing ingredients. The moment I saw the difference it made, my passion for clean, organic skincare was set on fire. I dove headfirst into formal education, enrolling into multiple courses and earned my Diploma in Natural Skincare Formulation (CPD Certified) to ensure that I could create the best products—not just for my family, but for yours too.
But here's the thing: I never understood why natural skincare always seemed to look so... boring. The "pretty" eye-catching skincare and beauty sets in stores were packed with toxic junk, while the natural alternatives were often dull, uninspiring, and oftentimes they still had some questionable ingredients. I wanted both-safe, organic skincare that looks as beautiful as it feels! So, I set out to bridge that gap and strived to set myself apart by using plant-based powders for gorgeous, natural colors—bye bye toxic dyes!
At The Happy Orchid, my dreams are big but my goal is simple:
Clean, organic skincare that actually works—free from bad factors like parabens, petroleums, phthalates, dyes, SLS & PEGs.
Plant-based beauty that's safe for you and your little ones
Affordable luxury—because every mama (and every person!) deserves to treat themselves without the guilt, and without breaking the bank
