Nini Montanez began experimenting with candle-making as a hobby in 2017, but it soon became an all-consuming passion. She googled recipes and watched so many videos that her family called her the “candle nerd,” and her business was born. As a migraine sufferer, Nini was determined to develop a natural product and researched the purest eco-friendly candle ingredients. She uses 100% soy wax and natural dyes, and she mixes her own essential oils and fragrances to allergen-free standards that will not irritate sensitive individuals. For WMODA, Candle Nerds offers an exclusive collection of scented candles in reusable decorative tins.
