Lan's Story
Hi my name is Lan, and I am the creator of Joyfull and Co. My name is a big part of my story...
For a long time I did not love my name nor was I proud of where I came from. This has fueled me to have the passion to help immigrants like myself in America.
In 1987 my family fled Vietnam in a small boat, and during this journey I lost my father and older brother.
After months of being stranded in the middle ocean my mother who was pregnant with me was rescued along with the others on the boat. They were brought to Thailand and that’s where she gave birth to me.
If I were a boy she would have named me Thai, but I’m a girl, so she named me Lan.
The Story Behind The Brand
Joyfull & Co. Coconut Body Lotion was first created when I had a severe sunburn so I hastily concocted a mixture.
To my delight it alleviated the pain and redness, and unveiled a softer and healthier complexion. I shared it with family, friends, and co-workers, and immediately everyone could not get enough.
I knew then I had stumbled across something truly remarkable, and I knew I had to share it with the world.
