MEET ALICIA
My name is Alicia and I send a warm welcome to Dream In Color Candle Co!
Very happy you are here. I am from Boston and now reside in Maryland, I have my MBA in Health Services Administration with many credentials in the Nursing and the Medical Insurance Field. I am a huge advocate for mental health and I consider myself to be an empath who has a big heart and a lot of love for people. I am very passionate about helping others and finding ways to maintain peace as much as possible. Candle making has been very therapeutic for me since I made my first candle in 2014, I fell in love with everything about candle making. Not only because they smell wonderful, but I was intrigued by how they truly work. Putting the scientific and mathematical pieces together. Candle making can be very tedious with perfecting a safe and great formula. Who would ever think my least favorite subject of Math would cross paths with me in my adult life by way of candle making? Lol!
​
The aftermath of the world standing still due to dealing with a global pandemic I decided that I would share my love of candle making. I did this knowing I could help others like myself who want to feel good and develop routines of wellness. To combine my love for mental health awareness, and to be able to truly provide self care via candles. I believe that in order to feel good you have to proactively take measures to ensure your mental health is in tact because everything that we do in life starts with what is going on in the inside of us.

​
Mental wellness for me is not just lighting my candles and having customers buy them; they truly have been made with so much intent of triggering key emotions to evoke feelings of joy, relaxation, and peace. Each scent in my signature line has been developed through great research on Cortisol levels, Neurotransmitters, and how I can raise Serotonin and Dopamine levels naturally by way of our environment. ​
​
Each candle creates calmness, love, joy, peace, balance, and tranquil feelings. To be able to relax, rid stress, and focus. I have also incorporated a color concept that has a deeper meaning into my line as well. Colors and emotions are closely linked and I believe colors can help bring more upbeat and positive feelings into our lives. Dream in Color Co has so many wonderful layers to it and I really hope that you enjoy your experience with my products.
​
With not only having thoughts of being able to make a difference. I want to ensure my line of candles are made of 100% soy wax that are not only good for you, but also good for the environment. ​
​​
Every single product idea that has gone into my candle line has been made with your mental health in mind. They have all been hand poured with love.
​
I want to build a safe space community for mental health awareness. I am open to feedback and all questions. I am always happy to help and I want to provide the best customer service. Thank you for shopping with us and I hope you become more in tune with your mental wellness.
