ANWAAR CANDLE CO

Chicago, ILBrand · Candles

My name is Magda, the brain and the muscle behind Anwaar Candle Co! I was born and raised in Poland, but now I'm proud to call Chicago my second home. Since I can remember I have always loved candles. There is something magical how one candle can effortlessly transform a room. Lighting a candle is the first thing that I do after a long day, or when it's rainy or sunny, or when I'm "cleaning", if you know what I mean? Bottom line is, that this girl loves candles! But there was a down side, no matter the cost or how wonderful they smelled, candle scent triggered my migraines. Me being an avid candle lover I wasn't ready to gave up on them just yet. One evening as I watched my gorgeous candle losing its last flame I had an idea that maybe I can make one myself, or at least try. The goal was to create candle that is good for you, good for the environment, and fit my aesthetic. Therefore on January 1st 2021 I started looking into the ingredients. After experimenting with different wicks, waxes and scent formulations my curiosity grew more and more. With lots of trials and errors I learned that we still can have a beautiful, luxurious candle without sacrificing the quality ingredients. And just like that Anwaar Candle Co was born!
