You're Doing Great, Babe
Picture this: 4 girls on a bachelorette trip in Nashville. I hosted it, so you know there are going to be gifts involved. Aside from the hangover kit, hilarious sashes, and “babe” water bottles, I had to add a touch of sass with a special candle.
Candier candles are probably one of my favorite gifts I have ever given. They each have a different statement to empower women, and I was able to match the candle with the girl. There are so many different ones to choose from, I even have a few in mind to give during the holidays.
First of all, the candles smell like a dream. They’re not extremely strong, but if you want a whiff, you can definitely smell it. They are also completely made from soy, essential oils for the scent, and hand poured in the States, so I had no qualms giving them out.
My favorite candles are the I See It, I like It & the Shine Bright candles. They both have gorgeous biodegradable glitter flakes on top of the wax that give the most beautiful shine while lit.
On each label there is a description of what the message means. The Shine Bright label says: “Babe, your glorious glow is exactly what the universe craves right now. Let this cute lil glitter candle be a daily reminder to shine bright like the gorgeous goddess you were born to be. Never let the insecurities of others dull your sparkle xo”
I’m obsessed. Some hilarious ones include, “Girl, You Need to Calm the F Down”. This would be perfect for that babe who stresses about everything. Hmm… might need to get this one for myself. There are also a few for the mom superheroes in your life. Definitely bookmarking these for Mother’s Day.
Candier candles have a 60 hour burn time and don’t include any gunk, like carcinogens, parabens, or phthalates. The scents are unique to the message. For example, the You’re Doing Great candle come with the message: “Life is tough girl, but so are you. Your unique glow is what the universe craves. Babe, you sparkle. Shine bright with sandalwood scent candle like the optimistic goddess you were born to be. Take some time for yourself, and reflect on all of your unique blessings xo”. It also smells like natural herbs, rich sandalwood, and fresh lavender. In other words, delicious.
Candier isn’t just about empowering women through sassy and fun messages on candles, they also donate a portion of proceeds to the non-profit Girls Inc. How fitting, right?!
Girls Inc is a non-profit organization helping girls thrive in the real world. From inspiring girls to be strong, bold and confident, to advocating for girls to have opportunities to succeed, Girls Inc helps girls rise up.
Candier also gives back to Greenspark, an organization dedicated to helping businesses make positive impacts towards the environment while directly supporting planet positive projects. Projects include planting trees, supporting communities through wind power and transforming plastic waste into empowering income. Candier has specifically helped plant 18,190 trees during their 25 months as a partner with Greenspark.
Candier is something I can give to friends and family and feel really proud. Not only am I inspiring a girlfriend, putting a smile on their face as they read a message dedicated to them, or simply adding a gorgeous accessory to their work desk, I am also helping girls across the globe be the best version of themselves. Talk about inspiring!
