Pure Serenity Fundraising Initiative
Pure Serenity is a social enterprise of the NAPCA Foundation. It was created as a fundraising initiative to support programs and services of the NAPCA Foundation. Pure Serenity products consist of 100% Hand-Poured Soy Candles and eco-friendly lotion bars, whipped body butter, lip balm, and deodorant.
Why Pure Serenity
In today’s unforgiving labor market, college students must complete in order to compete; if they withdraw from college without completing a workforce relevant certificate, credential, or degree, their prospects for finding gainful employment will be seriously jeopardized (Carnevale, 2014). Moreover, among those students who withdraw from college, nearly 8 out of 10 leave with loan debt (Pell Institute, 2019). The best way to compete is to be prepared!
To assist students with proper preparation for career and educational endeavors, 100% of the Pure Serenity product sales goes to supporting students the ability to experience and participate in one of NAPCA’s many college preparations and career exploration programs and services offered to elementary school students, middle school students, high school students, and college students.

Relaxation Variety Pack:
6 – tin or glass containers highlighting our 6 signatures scents. This is an easy way to trial our scents and/or gift candles.
To prevent fire and serious injury, always burn within sight on a level, heat resistant surface. Keep put of the reach of children and pets. Never burn your candle near anything that is flammable and handle with care.
After you have enjoyed lighting your candle, make sure to keep your wick trimmed. You should trim your wick to 6mm before lighting and keep your candle free of debris. Avoid wick trimmings that may fall into the wax. This can create a fire hazard.
When de-flaming the candle, it is recommended to use a candle snuffer. This will help to avoid problems associated with blowing out hot wax
If your candle begins to smoke, flicker or the flame becomes too high; extinguish your candle at once. These signs indicate the flame isn’t controlled. Let your candle cool & trim the wick.
It is recommended that you discard your candle once the remaining wax reaches 1/2” deep or you can see the metal wick holder.
Remember: Soy is a living organism. It continues to expand, contract and change from its current form. It may also look frosted (looks like tiny crystals). These flaws are normal and are indicators that you have purchased a 100% soy wax candle.

Our Ingredients
Safe Effective Ingredients
Shea Butter
Also known as Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, a great moisturizer that holds antioxidants and vitamins
Coconut Oil
Also known as Cocos Nucifera Oil – we can’t get enough of it – is packed with rich fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants
Vitamin E
A natural occurring vitamin, Tocopherol (Vitamin E) contains antioxidant properties
Soy Wax
Soy wax has a lower melting point than paraffin wax and because of this, soy candles will burn slower or longer than paraffin candles. Soy wax burns with zero petro soot, creating petro soot free candles.
Mica Mineral Powder
Not only does the addition of these minerals in popular products reduce the sensitivity of skin because of the lack of harmful chemical ingredients, Mica minerals may also provide a low-grade level of protection from harmful sun rays.
Organic Cornstarch
Cornstarch’s ability to absorb moisture, along with its lack of scent, makes it an excellent ingredient for an all-natural deodorant. cornstarch also helps to fight odor and help prevent wetness. We have chosen to use an organic cornstarch to avoid genetically modified organisms (GMOs).
Essential Oils
Apart from providing a pleasant smell, our products are infused with essential oils that are beneficial to your mind, body and skin. They will stimulate the olfactory system (part of the brain connected to smell) while they moisturize and nourish your skin.
Mango Butter
Mango Butter contains essential fatty acids and antioxidants that make it a wonderful choice for mature skin as well. The rich, nourishing nature of this butter can even help benefit those suffering from skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis.
Baking Soda
Baking soda is effective at absorbing all types of moisture, including sweat, which makes it useful for keeping your underarms dry. It also effectively kills odor causing bacteria.
Candelilla Wax
Candelilla wax is a plant based wax and a suitable vegan alternative to beeswax. It is skin conditioning, easily absorbed, odourless, and rich in nutrients.
Arrowroot Powder
Arrowroot contains a good amount of potassium, iron and B vitamins, which is great for circulation

We suggest burning 2 of the same scented candles in a larger room (i.e. living room) for a more potent result.
