Sustainability & Ingredients

Not only do SM5 candles look and smell amazing, we are conscious of our impact on the environment, our community and the people within it.

As a sustainable business, we have been conscious of how and who we work/do business with. By sourcing our raw materials domestically, we have been able to work with companies who share our values.

Each SM5 Candle is vegan, cruelty free and does not contain any toxins or other nasties;

• 100% US Soy wax
• FSC certified US wooden wicks
• Lead and zinc free cotton wicks 
• Phthalate free scents
• Reusable glass/tin vessel
• Re/up-cycled shipping materials that are reusable, biodegradable and compostable and made using recycled materials - some of our packaging will be repurposed/recycled in our own shipping methods to our guests.
• Each of our SM5 glass vessel candles come with its own beautiful reusable hand stamped cotton bag.

Our commitment to our community and people will grow alongside SM5. As LGBTQ Women business owners, we understand the need and strength in advocacy. By donating 5% of our profits to our chosen local project/non-profit is one that will help our social impact - with your help. 

At SM5, we are intentional and are committed to doing more.
