Meet The Founder: Active-duty Airman Turns Candle Making into Relax DMV to Help Others Heal
With more than twenty years in the U.S. Air Force service under his belt,Rob Naylor Jr.knows that resiliency isn’t just a skill — it’s a lifeline. Multiple tours in Iraq, Afghanistan, and other high-stress, high-heat environments taught him that true strength comes not only from endurance but also from learning how to rest, recharge, and restore your spirit.
Product Care Suggestions
For Best Results
Candle Care
We want our candles to be your favorite candles ever. Quick tip: before lighting, trim your wood wick to about 1/8 inch and flick off any loose bits—that way, you’ll get a beautiful, even flame every time.
Candle Care – Wood Wick Edition
To enjoy the cleanest burn and longest life from your candle:
1. Trim Before Each Burn – Keep your wood wick about 1/8 inch long before lighting.
2. Clear Away Debris – Gently remove any loose wood or ash from previous burns.
3. First Burn Matters – Allow the wax to melt evenly to the edges (about 2–3 hours) to prevent tunneling.
4. Burn Safely – Place your candle on a heat-resistant surface, away from drafts, pets, and children.
5. Extinguish Properly – Snuff out the flame instead of blowing to minimize smoke.
✨ Following these steps ensures a steady crackle, a beautiful flame, and the perfect mood-setting experience every time.
Body Butter
To get the most nourishment and scent from your body butter:
1. Start with Clean Skin – Apply to freshly washed skin for best absorption.
2. Warm It Up – Scoop a small amount and rub between your palms to melt the butter before applying.
3. A Little Goes a Long Way – Our formula is rich and concentrated, so use sparingly.
4. Target Dry Areas – Focus on elbows, knees, hands, and feet for deep moisture.
🖤✨ LUXURY STORAGE NOTICE
Shea Body Butter Care
Made with natural ingredients.
No stabilizers. No fillers.
To maintain its whipped texture:
• Store in a cool, dry place
• Avoid heat & direct sunlight
• Ideal temperature: below 75°F
If melting occurs — don’t stress.
This is completely normal. Place the jar in a cooler space or refrigerate briefly. Once cooled, it will solidify naturally and remain just as nourishing.
✨ Texture may change. Quality never does.
