New Member Spotlight

Soyme isn't just a brand—it's a heartfelt creation nurtured by the love and dedication of a mother-and-daughter duo in Ellettsville, Indiana. With every candle, they honor the memory of the owner's beloved mother, who left a profound legacy in August 2020. More than just soy candles, Soyme embodies a deeper meaning. Its very name, a clever play on words, signifies "I am" in Spanish, reflecting themes of self-care and strength.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, Soyme offers a diverse selection of scented soy candles and melts, celebrated for their clean, long-lasting burn and eco-conscious qualities. Whether for corporate gifts, party favors, or thoughtful gestures for loved ones, Soyme candles are a symbol of care and consideration.
But Soyme mission extends beyond crafting candles—it's about lifting spirits, sparking inspiration, and fostering empowerment, especially among women. Serving as a guiding light, Soyme emphasizes the power of connection and personal growth, one candle at a time. Through building a supportive community and encouraging self-discovery, Soyme illuminates the path toward a brighter, more empowered future for all who encounter it.
