Why Non Toxic? |||
As a wife and mother, I started making Prenti candles as a way to enjoy everything a candle has to offer without worry.
And like most moms, when I didn’t like what I was finding, I took matters into my own hands and figured out what wax(s) were good and which ones were not so good.
Along with fragrances, I came up with my own recipe to making a candle that we all could feel good about lighting in our home.
NEW BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT
Soulful Bloom
Soulful Bloom – Nature’s Touch for Everyday Wellness
In Reese, two women are redefining self-care with a return to nature.
Meet Soulful Bloom, a handcrafted skin and health care brand co-founded by Kristine Stockmeyer and Marla Lefler.
Their mission is simple yet powerful: honor the body, respect the earth, & empower through purity and sisterhood.
What began as a personal search for toxin-free products evolved into a full line of balms, butters, and serums made with thoughtfully sourced, all-natural ingredients. Each formula is rooted in tallow, botanicals, and essential oils—designed to nourish without compromise.
A Few Favorites
Buzz Off Tallow: A natural insect-repelling balm perfect for Michigan summers.
Gigi’s Bum Butter: A gentle diaper rash balm trusted by moms.
Nature’s Radiance Face Serum: A light, restorative blend for everyday glow.
“Everything we create is something we’d use on our own families,” Kristine and Marla share. “That’s where our standard of purity begins.”
Shop Soulful Bloom
Though still in their early days, Soulful Bloom already ships nationwide through their online store, shopsoulfulbloom.com, and actively shares updates on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.
Whether you’re looking to simplify your skincare or gift something meaningful, Soulful Bloom offers a chance to indulge in nature’s best—while supporting local women who pour their hearts into every jar.
