The Meaning Behind Solomé: Beauty Rooted in Peace

Two white flowers resting on a dark background, symbolizing purity, peace, and renewal — representing Solomé Beauty’s story of reclaiming innocence and conscious beauty.

"PEACE IS FOR EVERYONE." - Norah Jones

Solomé: it means peace. At Solomé, peace is more than a word — it’s our guiding principle. The word Solomé and our logo (the olive branch), carry the vibration of peace — the kind that begins within and ripples outward. Through small, intentional choices — what we put on our skin, how we treat others, and how we care for the earth — we can create a more peaceful, beautiful world. That is the essence of Solomé. Peaceful. Conscious. Pure. Skincare with meaning.

It’s the courage to choose kindness, authenticity, and awareness — from the ingredients we use to the way we care for our bodies and the planet. We believe in creating peace through the choices we make every day: choosing non-toxic ingredients, respecting the earth, annd empowering all people — women, men, and youth — to feel safe and beautiful in their own skin.

Solomé stands for more than skincare-  it stands for peace, renewal, and respect for the human spirit.


RECLAIMING THE STORY OF SALOME

At markets I am sometimes approached by individuals (usually "perverted old men" archetypes) who  confuse Solomé with Salome — a young girl from an ancient story that history has told through a lens of judgment and misunderstanding.

In the Bible, Salome was a young girl, likely around 12 or 13 years old, living in a time when girls were often used as objects of entertainment and political manipulation, being required to dance in front of rooms of men wearing only partially see-through veils. King Herod, was having an affair with his brother's wife, Herodius (Salome's mother), and the adulterous couple sought revenge agains John the Baptist, who openly condemned their affair. During a banquet held by King Herod, the young Salome was coerced into dancing before a room of men — at her mother’s urging. After the dance, Herod promised the girl anything she desired. At her mother's insistence, the young Salome, used as a pawn, and at her mother’s influence, asked for John the Baptist — a request that ultimately became her legacy. Over time, that story was distorted, turning a young girl into a symbol of shame rather than innocence.

But when we look closer, we see the truth: Salome was not a seductress or a villain. She was a child caught in the schemes of corrupt adults. Yet, through centuries of retelling, she became a symbol of lust and sin — a tragic example of how narratives can be twisted to shame and scapegoat young women. 

The story of Salome has been retold by countless artists, writers, and even filmmakers — often sexualizing her instead of seeing her as the victim she truly was. This pattern continues today: society commodifies young girls, telling them to look older, dress sexier, and cover themselves in products that are often harmful to their bodies — and then blames them when that attention turns predatory.

Solomé Beauty was created in defiance of that narrative. We believe in a world where beauty and peace coexist — where skincare is safe, intentional, and empowering, and where every woman and girl can exist naturally, without being objectified or blamed.

(Reference: Mark 6:17–29, Matthew 14:3–11)
