Scintillating Scents Candle Co.

Hey guys, I’m pretty new here but I hope this inspires someone to start there own company. My name is Alexis, I’m 23, and I own Scintillating Scents Candle Co. As most of you are going through the same thing as me, then I know this situation has brought some hard times your way. In simple terms, this time is the very reason I started my company, but it’s not that simple. Let’s start at the beginning! When I was 21, I started working two jobs to try and help me get to where I wanted to be. I worked both days and nights every day, and that took a toll on me, both mentally and emotionally. I had moments when I would pray and cry because it felt like I was doing everything right, and it wasn’t paying off, but I continued. I worked two jobs for three years. I would look around, and it seemed that everyone I knew was getting everything they wanted, and here I am, struggling. I don’t want to make my first story too long, so let’s fast forward! So here we are in 2020, and I just knew this year is going to be great- think again, right? At this point, I was tired of working altogether, but I had to; it’s not like I had another source of income if I left both jobs. As I said, it was taking a toll on me mentally and emotionally but never spiritually because my faith is a lot stronger than anything else. One day out of nowhere, I said I was going to start my own company and guess what it was going to be perfume! Perfume lol! I thought, and said, I have to look into something I like, and I thought about candles. I did as much research as I could, and then I ordered a small kit and made three candles, and they came out great. I was excited; I could see how far my business was going to take off. I bought everything I needed to make them and started my Instagram and Facebook business pages. OMG!! I was so excited. I just started making more and trying to build my social media presence and all, and I was proud of myself. As much financial help, my company will be, it has also shown me new things about myself. So here I am 23 years old starting my own business and still learning. I hope by me starting my own company inspires others, especially little girls, to want to do the same. To show them that they can do anything they put their minds too and that nothing is too hard for them as long as they believe in themselves and go for it. I do wish that this was something I thought of or decided to do when I was a little younger, but I cant wait to see where and how far my business goes. So that is just a little about me, my company, and how it began. I cannot wait to tell you guys more about my journey, whether it is talking about something positive or not that is going on within my company. I look forward to using this as an outlet to express myself with whatever I may be going through in regards to being a business owner.
