I personally contacted Rockport Candle via email a few weeks ago to inquire for a private DIY…read morecandle making with my group of 8 women as a "pre wedding weekend" bachelorette event, and it was a wonderful hit! They were incredibly accommodating on my dates, and were very responsive over email! Day of the event, we had arrived 10 minutes late due to traffic but they were gracious and happily waiting for us! They gave us a great rundown on how to choose our scents, and we had a wonderful time creating and naming our own candles! They laughed along with our chaos that 8 ladies bring, and I 10/10 recommend heading over to Rockport Candle Co when you're in town, and DEF recommend booking a private event with them!!!

What a fun little shop filled with so many delicious smelling handcrafted soy wax candles,…read moreroom/linen sprays, soaps, bath salt crystals, wax melts and many other items too! After a bit of time smelling candles one by one, I selected "Cocktails By The Sea" it smells like a delicious mojito cocktail, with notes of freshly muddled mint, pineapple, sugar, and rum!!! I also had to purchase one of the room/linen sprays in "Sea Lavender" Soooo amazing!

Came through on a Thursday with my friend and we were doing some window shopping upon seeing a sign…read moreadvertising beeswax goodies. The second part that caught my eye was the beautiful hive! Nice to see the lil bees do their thing. There's a variety of unique beeswax candles with incredible designs. My eyes landed on some chapstick and I constantly need lip balm at work from the dry air in the lab. After smelling the unique scents, I went with the classically calming lavender! Now every time I swipe my lips at work, I think of the fond memories made in Salem including seeing this gem of a store! Keeps my lips nicely moisturized and soothing with the scent.

Thankfully, they're back in a different area of the North End, still doing their thing of sustainable products. Maria (owner) & her staff + interns are amazingly friendly & helpful! There are probably eco-friendly things here you didn't even know you needed. It's great to be able to bring my empty glass jars or use theirs to get your refills. It's a simple & easy way to get whatever items you need, like body lotion, detergent, & other products. They also have an abundance of plants which is pretty cool. They even do a clothing swap & other events too, so you have to follow them to know when they're happening. The issue is that they're not always open when they're supposed to be which is unfortunate.

I've tried ordering eco products online before and it's been hit or miss. I'm happy to have found a place where I can see things in real life before buying them and make sure they are durable and sized correctly for my needs, even try a toothpaste tablet from the sample container, and talk to real life people who have tried the products so I can find out what makeup remover to use with the bamboo pads and whether shampoo and conditioner bars will have a different feel than the liquid stuff. More bonuses: they are walking distance from the orange line, they said I can bring back empty containers and buy refills, and their plant nursery section is nice. They are a bit pricey, as should be expected with ethically sourced products, not to mention storefronts that pay rent in the North End. Most of what I bought will hopefully last long enough to more than pay for itself. I'll be back!
