Warrior Candle
Light of Hope💗✨
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time that’s deeply personal for me. My Bluffton Candles journey began during my own breast cancer battle, and candles became a source of comfort and faith.
✨ God’s presence was my guiding light, and each time I lit a candle, I felt a little closer to Him, reminded that I wasn’t walking this path alone.
✨ The spark of the candle symbolized my own spark—no matter how dim life felt, God was always there, keeping me strong and steady.
✨ My morning ritual of lighting a candle was a moment of prayer and reflection, a way to ground myself and trust in His plan.
Candles became more than just a product—they were my connection to faith, hope, and healing. This month, let’s lift each other up and share light with those who need it most. 💕
A portion of your purchase at the Shop and online for the whole month of October will go to MUSC Hollings Cancer Research, supporting the fight against cancer.

Bluffton Candles and LocalLife Magazine | Giving Back
In a tail-wagging effort to help get more shelter dogs adopted, Bluffton Candles and LOCAL Life Magazine has unleashed a paw-some, premium soy wax wonder that promises to disguise the wet dog funk with a more pleasing aroma. All net proceeds will go directly to Hilton Head Humane, fueling their heroic quest to match adorable adoptables with their human soulmates.
This olfactory masterpiece, a blend of teakwood and orange, was whipped up by LOCAL Life's very own art director, Jeremy Swartz, who apparently has a nose for more than just art. It snagged the top spot in a scent showdown, scoring an impressive 11 out of 10 from judge Angie Evangelista.
So leash up your giving spirit and join the pack. Together we can ensure every dog gets its day — a day filled with love, family and maybe a nice, long nap on a lap or two.

OUR STORY
-
When founder Angie Evangelista was receiving treatment for her Breast Cancer, she bought an at-home candle making kit to use during her recovery. She found it was cathartic to make something with her hands. She started experimenting with materials, scents, and the process. She was soon making them as gifts for family and friends who helped get her through her cancer.
Not only did she find her candles great to express her gratitude, but they became symbolic of hope. Every time she lit a candle, it was a metaphor for the hope she needed to get through Cancer. Today Angie and her husband, Leo, share a unified vision in spreading hope through their products with the world. They are pursuing the American Dream with hard work and passion and growing a small business into a lifestyle. Watch the interview with ABC's WJCL News!
