Feed your soul with love and energy from this hand-poured candles.

The Chic Guide: What is Wick Therapy Candle?
Jhazlyn Sanders, Owner of Wick Therapy Candle: Wick Therapy Candle is a luxury traditional soy candle company that has evolved into a candle pouring destination for candle lovers to “create their own path to peace.”

The Chic Guide: What’s the inspiration behind it?
Sanders: Wick Therapy Candle was inspired by wanting to feel good and create a safe place for me to relax and unwind. I used to work in a very challenging environment and started researching ways to curb my anxiety and uplift my spirit. I came across various content that spoke to the use of scent. I am truly a lover and hoarder of candles (this is where it gets good!). I began working on scent combinations and really created scents around energy. Our candles embody the feelings and emotions that we are people sometimes experience: the relaxation of floral notes, the happiness of citrus, the focus of mint, or even warmth of vanilla – for a glimpse into our candle collection.

The Chic Guide: Who’s behind the business?
Sanders: It’s me, Jhazlyn sanders. I started my entrepreneurial journey one candle at a time. I am often shy and introverted, which makes me place a lot of importance on feng shui, making sure my favorite places have a specific kind of energy. I found that candles are one of the best ways to achieve this for me. My background is mainly around roles in the Consumer Packaged Goods industry, where I occupied positions that analyze data to understand shopping behaviors. With my past experience and genuine love of candles I am able to fuel my passion while walking in my purpose.

The Chic Guide: What makes Wick Therapy Candle unique?
