Behind Every Candle

Clean ingredients

Coconut–soy wax, cotton wicks and fragrance oils free from parabens, mutagens, carcinogens and phthalates.

Made for sensitive noses and cleaner burns.

Hand-Poured in Small Batches

Small-batch craftsmanship means better quality, more intentional production and candles made with genuine care.

Gentle on the Senses

Coconut–soy gives a naturally softer cold throw, but a warm, inviting aroma once lit. Perfect for creating a cozy atmosphere without ever being overwhelming.

Michigan-Made, Family-Owned

Inspired by the quiet charm of Northern Michigan’s forests and lakes. Every candle carries a little of where we’re from.

New Beginnings...

Soft Current was never supposed to exist. I originally planned to add candles to my former skincare brand, not start an entirely new one. However, I thought about it for quite some time (a year!) before realizing I was being pulled toward home fragrance and the desire to create a cleaner option.

In high school, the top of my dresser was covered in scented candles and I remember constantly getting headaches and not feeling great. This led me to look into essential oils, but they couldn’t deliver the scent experience I craved, along with several other drawbacks.

So here we are, on this ever-evolving journey of creating scent experiences with clean fragrance. Thank you so much for being a part of it.
