Greetings and welcome to Covington Creek Candle Company located in Fort Wayne, Indiana. My philosopy is to bring you the best and most organic product I can while keeping it affordable for you.

 

I know my candles are not the most expensive. I do use preminum quality items. I keep cost down for you by driving the 6 total hours to pick up the wax, candle supplies (wicks, wick tabs, fragrance oils, etc(saves hughly on shipping). I make my own wicks by sealing the cotton with wax and putting it in the wick tab rather than buying the more expensive pretabed wicks. I know how tough times are and I do this to help you get the most out of your money.

Shipping:  If you live in the Fort Wayne, Indiana area email me and we can set up a delivery/pickup.  You will be refunded shipping thru the credit card.  For those of you outside the Fort Wayne area because candles are shipped per weight/location and not quanity you will be charged the large flat rate box rate of $13.85 at checkout but will be credited for any overcharge on that order. For most orders it will not be this much. i.e a customer bought two 2 ounce lotion hand pumps for delivery to Chicago, IL  It actually cost $4.95 to mail. She was refunded the difference the same day of the sale. If you want to know how much and item would cost to ship email me and I can look it up in the shipping calculator of the different services - UPSP, UPS, Fed Ex and get the quotes back to you even before you order. Just be sure to include your zip code in the email.

 

NEW ITEM - Lotion Bars - made up of base ingredient of organic bees wax. Your choice of the following organic oils coconut oil, sunflower or olive, shea and cocoa butter. I can also add any of my lotion ingredients. Best of all - NO PRESERVATIVES are needed due to there being no water in this. Look for them to come in a jar form.

I have received many convos asking about coloring the candles. I will keep the dye free line and create a line using as much natural color as possible (i.e. beet powder, paprika, cayenne powder, etc.) I will indicate if a color is natural and what it came from. Look for these to be posted.

My lotions are all natural with the majority of the ingredients USDA Organic. This means the organic are 100% organic. In fact, all of my organic ingredients are USDA organic. I love the earth and I know you do too. I buy only from USA companies whose products are cultivated, harvested and processed in the most responsible fashion. I take living green very serious. I offer four bases to my lotion (Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, Sunflower Oil and Sweet Almond Oil). Careful research led me to choose the lotion and lip balm ingredients. See the pages with lotion and lip balm for the details of those benefits. You make the choice for the best base oil for your skin. You will be impressed that something so soft and silky feeling can be so healthy for your skin. See an ingredient that does not agree with you - no problem I will custom make one up. Remember - a little dab goes a long way so my products are worth it. I work as an Intensive Care Nurse and my co-workers love the lotion and lip balm. The lotion does not wash off with the first or even second hand washing. It quickly absorbs into the skin but retains a moisture barrier. This would be ideal for any that requires frequent hand washing or with serious dry skin.

My 100% USDA lip balm is silky smooth with your choice of a combination of essential oil to scent it with. Be prepared for the peppermint - you lips are sure to pleasantly tingle.

You will find Organic Honey, Grapefruit Seed Extract, Tea Tree Oil and Grape Seed Oil for their antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal for your skin. I use Optiphen to ensure protection of the cream against mold, fungus, and bacteria and is a meger 1% of the lotion. It is a non-paraben, non-formaldehyde preservative and widely used in natural products. As much as I would like to rely on a totally natural preservative the lotion would have a very short shelf life. All of my lotions/lip balm are dye free lending a creaming white or off white appearance, that comes from the bees wax and organic essential oils/carrier oils. The soy candles may be a pure white or off white due to the soybeans, (each crop can be different depending on how young they were when harvested, soil type, etc and the scented oils used.

Lecithin oil (derived from soybeans) can be used as an alternative thickener to the emulsifying wax. It lends an earthy mustard yellow color to the lotion.

No "blended" or "soy based" candles from me. I use only 100% pure soy wax that was grown right here in the good old USA. Don't you love helping to support local farmers? I have a long list of scents you will love. For the essential oil blends I carefully created my own combinations. This is ideal for those of you that are sensitive to manmade scents. The essential oil scents will have an EO after their name. All of the lotion and lip balm scents can be used for the soy candles. Each body care product and candle is handmade by me at the time of order - just for you.
