we are sheik&cō.
We're passionate about mental health, and the surroundings each of us have that contribute to it. Looking at beautiful things, whether it be in nature, or affirmations are proven to help shift our perspectives and help us create a happier environment. We're obsessed with the relaxing beauty in candles and self-care. We'd love to share our passion with you.
relax
Each candle is handmade, hand blended, and poured in small batches. Every component was researched and carefully chosen to be both relaxing and safe for your home. Every candle is made with love.
breathe easy
clear the air of illness causing chemicals
To be clear, we do not use a soy blend. Our biodegradable soy wax is free of paraffin, phthalates, and any ingredients on California's Proposition 65 List. You may have seen on other candles the words "soy blend" which usually means the manufacturer mixes soy wax with paraffin wax. Paraffin wax comes from petroleum, coal, or oil shale. When burned, paraffin candles release chemicals like benzene and toluene, which are linked to respiratory issues and cancer (see more info here). We respect the air around you, and have done the research to ensure we are creating a safer, worry-free candle you can actually enjoy.
reduce harmful toxins
Our candles are scented with clean fragrance oils free from carcinogens, mutagens, reproductive toxins, formulated without phthalates, and ingredients found on California's Proposition 65 list.
go lead-free
We only use lead free and zinc free wicks coated with a natural coating consisting of vegetable oils and beeswax.
increase your self-love
feel motivated and confident
Every candle comes with an affirmation. Reading affirmations help; reduce stress and anxiety, improve problem solving skills, build self-esteem, and direct your attention towards your goals and aspirations. Affirmations activate the brain's reward centers, which can lead to increased feelings of motivation, making affirmations a helpful tool in improving overall mental health. Let's fight this mental health crisis together!
give 1% for change
In the grand tapestry of life, we hold a single thread. We pledge to weave it into a pattern of betterment, to trace the intricate designs of change and growth. Our pledge is to make the world a better place by donating 1% of our profits to a charity we align with such as the Rainforest Trust, Yonge Street Mission, and The National Breast Cancer Foundation. Much of our vessels are glass and can be recycled or reused. We also try our best to use recyclable or biodegradable packaging, and reduce the use of single use plastics as much as possible.

I absolutely love the candles from Sheik & Co.! You can tell so much thought went into each product, and the attention to detail is exceptional. The Citrus No.3 smells divine and even when it's not being burnt, it still manages to make any room smell fragrant. I prefer soy based candles, which is why this beautiful brand will forever be a staple in my home.

- Trim your wick to 1/4 of an inch or 0.6 cm before lighting and relighting your candle.
- Keep away from children, pets, and drafts.

- Relax! Enjoy your candle to the fullest and use it as your excuse to take some time for yourself! You deserve it.
