Candles for a Cause || Ocean View Candle Co.

August 17, 2020 · In: Life

Happy Monday, everyone! Welcome back to The SK Way. I hope you enjoyed your weekend, and took some time to relax. This past week, I have been burning my new favorite candle from Ocean View Candle Co.! Karla, the owner, was so kind and sent me a candle and some wax melts to try. Check out her Instagram and Website to learn more!

I have always loved burning candles in my room – fall, Christmas, everyday, you name it, I have one! What I didn’t realize though, was how many harmful chemicals are in the candles we buy. Karla and her husband are dedicated to providing their customers with healthier alternatives to these products. Their “classy candles for a cause” are 100% natural and made with organic soy wax, cotton wicks, and are scented with essentials oils – made and poured right here in the United States!

I also love that Karla uses her business to help and serve others – 20% of the proceeds from every summer collection sale helps to provide food for families in Guatemala! You can burn these candles knowing that you are doing good for your health and supporting those in need!

I have been burning the “Peaceful” Candle which is a Strawberry Shortcake scent. It is such a light and comforting smell and is not overpowering like some other candles on the market! She also sent me some Raspberry Sangria wax melts that smell absolutely amazing! With multiple collections, unique scents, and the option to create a personalized candle, there is something for everyone!

Her new fall collection launched this past Saturday! I purchased “Vanilla Pumpkin Pie” and my mom chose “Autumn Walk” – I cannot wait for the order to come in! 20% of the proceeds from sales on this collection will be put towards toys and Christmas gifts for children in Guatemala – be sure to get yours while they last!!

Thank you again to Karla for her kindness and generosity! I highly recommend checking out her Instagram and website to learn more about Ocean View Candle Co. and maybe purchase one for yourself! – you can use the code “FRIENDS25” for 25% off of your purchase 🙂

Thank you so much for reading!

    I love this! I will have to check out this candle company because I will only buy organic and non-toxic options, which are oddly enough hard to find! These sound amazing (and are so pretty). Thank you for recommending these!
