At Bee Coco Candle, we are intentional about every product we offer. What we consume, inhale, and use daily matters—especially for those living with allergies or autoimmune conditions. That's why we partner with artisans who share our hypervigilance and commitment to clean, thoughtfully sourced ingredients.

Unlike big-box candles and personal care brands, Bee Coco Candle is proudly gluten-free, paraben-free, phthalate-free, vegan, and soon 100% soy-free across our entire candle line — not just a limited selection. Collaborating with small businesses that align with these values allows us to bring you a curated collection of non-toxic, handcrafted goods you can truly feel good about.

Allow us to introduce the artisans you'll find at Bee Coco Candle in Geneva, IL.

Badass Beard Care — Granite Bay, CA

If you've ever visited our booth at a market and met Eric, one of Bee Coco Candle's owners, there's a good chance you admired his beard—and asked how he keeps it looking so good.

We're excited to carry Eric's four favorite grooming tools from Badass Beard Care, a disabled, veteran-owned and operated company based in the USA. Their high-quality beard brushes and combs are designed to elevate your grooming routine, whether you're just starting out or refining your beard game.

Choose from a boar's hair brush, folding comb, walnut comb, or bamboo beard brush—and don't forget their seriously good mustache wax. These make excellent gifts for the bearded men in your life.

Bluecorn Candle — Montrose, CO

We are thrilled to offer some of the finest pure beeswax candles from Bluecorn Candle in Montrose, Colorado. With more than 30 years of experience, Bluecorn built their brand on traditional hand-dipped beeswax tapers—and they remain a best-seller to this day.

In our shop, you'll find Bluecorn's unscented, natural beeswax candles in a variety of forms, including votives, tapers, pillars, and a stunning 3-wick candle hand-poured into an amber glass jar.

Beeswax is known for its clean burn, natural honey aroma, and timeless beauty — making these candles a perfect complement to our clean candle offerings.

Grandir Totes — Geneva, IL

We are so excited to introduce Grandir Totes, a brand designed right here in Geneva, IL by two local moms, Kate and Sarah.

Their journey began in November 2024, born from a shared need for a bag that could keep up with the beautiful chaos of raising families and managing packed schedules. Grandir — meaning "to grow" in French — reflects their mission to create products that grow with you through work, travel, and everything in between.

The result is a minimalist, durable tote that is as functional as it is stylish. Each tote is spacious enough for daily essentials, built to last, and available in four classic colors: Gray, Black, Navy Blue, and Pink. Whether you need a bag for work, school, errands, or a weekend getaway, Grandir has you covered.

We love that their story is one of friendship and a shared desire to bring simplicity and organization to daily life. Supporting Grandir means supporting local moms and a product made with heart, right in our community.

Pretty Farm Girl — Myakka City, FL

We are thrilled to welcome Pretty Farm Girl to the Bee Coco Candle family. Founded by Jen, a mom of three who started making natural skincare when she couldn't soothe her own troubled skin, Pretty Farm Girl is rooted in real ingredients and a connection to the land.

Their products are built on tallow and goat milk — nutrient-rich ingredients that work in harmony with your skin's natural biology. Every batch is handmade in Florida with:

  • Toxin-free, real ingredients — no artificial fragrances
  • Tallow — rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, closely resembling skin's natural oils
  • Goat milk — gently nourishing and soothing
  • Thoughtfully crafted — for sensitive skin, eczema, and anyone seeking cleaner skincare

From their Organic Beauty Serums to the Wild Rose + Honey Body Soap and Fresh Face Cream, Pretty Farm Girl offers a complete regimen for skin that craves simplicity and nourishment. Customers rave about the results — softer skin, reduced irritation, and a natural glow.

We're proud to carry their line because it aligns so deeply with our own values: clean ingredients, transparency, and products made with real purpose.

The Noble Soapery — Bartlett, IL

The Noble Soapery was born out of necessity. With a long list of allergies, eczema, and sensitive skin concerns, the founders set out to create gentle, effective soap without harsh or harmful ingredients. That mission became even more personal with the arrival of their second child.

Their soaps are known for their rich, creamy lather that cleanses without stripping the skin. Transparency is at the core of their brand—they are open about every ingredient they use and prioritize sourcing from local suppliers whenever possible.

The Noble Soapery uses RSPO-certified sustainable palm oil instead of animal products for a longer-lasting bar, and works with a woman-owned company in Des Plaines, IL to source olive and coconut oils.

We are especially proud to be their first liquid soap refill station. Bring in your own bottle—or one of their beautiful amber bottles—and we'll weigh and refill it while you wait. Less waste, more bubbles.
