Prairie Lights - Eco-friendly 100% Soy Wax Candles - Organic Handcrafted Soap - Organic Body Products - and more ecologically-friendly products, made with care and love. Welcome!
We believe being "eco-friendly" includes both ecology and economy, and our products reflect those values. We value the work of "our" hands (all handcrafters), believing that staying in touch with our senses, using our strengths, living our values, keeps us flourishing and creates product that ends up being a piece of ourselves we gift to others - whose value cannot be measured in money.
We start with the basics. What do we use on our bodies, in our homes, and how can we improve on those products both ecologically and economically? How can we use these products to connect our senses with the glorious world around us and increase our positive emotions and well-being?
We allow ourselves to be inspired as we engage in the world around us. This may come through nature, people, research, events, family, - anything that has meaning and purpose to us.
Then we begin researching and formulating ideas on how to combine our values, needs, and the beauty that inspires us to create artisan, handcrafted products. This means we work in small batches, taking care to appreciate each individual ingredient, being intentional with our process.
Once we have a product, we test it out on our own family and extended family. After all, the central purpose of what we create is for our own loved ones. We are our own best customers! :-)
If we won't use it, we won't share it with you.
And lastly, we don't tend to leave things alone. We value improvement. Each season we work on some aspect of our products and seek ways to improve upon them. Our products evolve. So check back with us now and then! You will likely find something new going on!
Soybeans are a renewable, sustainable resource, and we use only:
• Non-GMO, made-in-USA, 100% soybean wax - no blends, fillers, or additives
• Lead-free, natural element wicks - not chemically treated
• Premium, PHTHALATE-FREE fragrance oils
• Master Herbalist proprietary blends of essential oils
• Non-GMO, made-in-USA palm wax (for our pillar candles)
Our candles provide you with
• Excellent hot AND cold scent throws
• Longer burn times than petroleum-based wax (paraffin)
• Less soot means better air quality
• Enjoyed by all ages and genders
• Luxurious, affordable, eco-friendly gifts
• Ready to repurpose containers (The gift that keeps on giving!)
Our premium candles are for the sophisticated and health-conscious candle lover. Scented with PHTHALATE-FREE premium fragrance oils and pure essential oils, we top our unadulterated soy wax off at its maximum fragrance load for optimal hot and cold scent throw. Our fragrances and essential oils are as pure and of premium-quality as we can find; we test them all ourselves to see that the essential oils duplicate the true, natural plants & herbs they are derived from, and that the fragrance oils match our expectations of true-to-name.
Our container candles provide you with the comfort of knowing there will not be any melt-outs that sometimes happen with pillars. They are poured into reusable, eco-friendly, recyclable glass. Soy wax will “pop” out of the container and the jar will wash up easily with hot soap & water, making it ready to repurpose!
For healthy candles, please keep your wicks trimmed to ¼” and burn at 2-hour minimum intervals.
"Light is sweet, and it pleases the eyes..."
Our soaps are full of skin conditioning oils that have been saponified.
All of our oils are ORGANIC (as of May 2016),
Our fragrances are PHTHALATE-FREE,
Our essential oils are premium grade,
Our additional ingredients are organic when available to us,
We research relentlessly,
NO SULFATES, PARABENS, OR PROPYLENE GLYCOL,
and our soaps are VEGAN-FRIENDLY (except Soothe, which has goat's milk in it)

2 out of 5 starsUnfortunately, this soap was not unscented. It came heavily scented. Perhaps it was stored around intentionally scented items and became permeated with other scents. Anyway, it wasn't really usable.
Prairie responded on Feb 25, 2016
We are sorry that you were disappointed with this soap. No fragrance is added, nor is it cured or stored with scented items. We respect the need to avoid fragrance with some people. (our own family member) As per request, the soap was sent in a new, unscented box without any wrapping in order to avoid possible fragrance contamination. The soap will make a great gift for someone!
