Hello and welcome! My name is Maria, I’m the founder and CEO of Illuminate Life Candle Co. I am a wife and stay-at-home mother of two. After realizing how many toxins are truly in our home on a day-to-day basis, I slowly began cleaning up and looking into the products I used for myself and my family. I searched for the perfect candle to replace my unknowingly toxic ones until I finally decided to craft one myself. My goal was to create an elegant candle that was not only lovely and would fill a room with a luxurious scent but was also non-toxic and safe to have in our home. None of those nasty parabens and phthalates. Throughout 2023, we unfortunately experienced three consecutive miscarriages. I found the process of creating my candles to be therapeutic and relaxing. I wanted a way to honor my angel babies and shine a light on how precious life is, so I decided to start a small business: Illuminate Life. To give back, 10% of our proceeds help support local pregnancy resource centers and pro-life organizations. I’m very appreciative of your business! Thank you for your support and to allow me to better serve my community!
“No one lights a lamp to put it under a tub: they put it on the lamp stand where it shines for everyone in the house. In the same way, your light must shine in people’s sight so that seeing your good works, they may give praise to your Father in heaven.”
-Matthew 5: 15-16
