The Beginning.
I decided to begin this journal to provide you an insight of my journey when making the candles. Red Elephant Candle Company came to me during the pandemic that we are still in. I was burning a candle that I loved and realized that I was getting headaches, which doesn’t happen often) I would only contract these awful headaches when that certain candle was burning. I love candles I knew that I was not the only one experiencing this troubling matter. I mean this was so foreign to me to where I thought there was something wrong with me. I wanted to go to the doctor, but before I did that I wanted to experiment with making the candles myself. While making the candles I realized that I enjoyed the separation from my personal reality. While on this journey I am able to present to you three candles. All the candles are a lavender base blend. All candles are also hand blended. There is Pumzi which is an all natural lavender blend. Pumzi means breath. It is important that we take that breath and with lavender it allows you to not only relax but to breath. Safisha ( Cleanse) is our next candle. She is a Lavender base candle with sage and peppermint oil added as a component. Safisha spoke to me because I am always in a space of want to cleanse energy and space. That was how I felt when I made Safisha. Last, there is Therapy. Therapy is a has a healing component that ease muscle pain and is good for a massage oil. When making Therapy I needed something that was going to be good for muscles aches and relaxation.
