Origin Story of The Zona Co.
In retrospect, The Zona Co. was founded a long time ago, I just didn't quite realize it yet. Ever since I was a little girl, I was always in the lab trying to make my own "potions" for my family and myself. I would mix and create my own shampoos, soaps, perfumes and would absolutely have a blast inventing my own little creations. As it turned out... I would be doing the exact same thing, just 20 years later with spunky-named, clean-ingredient candles!
The Zona Co. came into fruition one evening when I was shopping for candles and suddenly had the random urge to know exactly what was IN the candles I was buying. I was just starting to really pay attention to the products I was bringing into my home. My curiosity was positively peaked! To my surprise, I did not like what I read. I never knew how unhealthy some candles could actually be, and the lasting effects they could have on my family, pets, home, and myself.
That's when a little light bulb went off. I spent countless hours, weeks, and months researching and testing, knowing I was on a mission to create something everyone would feel safe and excited to have in their homes. Flash forward and here we are: clean-ingredient, spunky candles, made just for you!
What sets our candles apart from others?
The Zona Co. candles are made of 100% all-natural soy wax from soybeans grown right here in the U.S. They are non-toxic, infused with clean fragrance oils and essential oils, and topped real crystal chips. To take it a step further, our products are also free of lead, zinc, phthalates, carcinogens, and reproductive toxins. The essential oils and crystals aid in various helpful benefits. Our flat-braided cotton wicks + our eco-friendly wax cause each candle to burn clean, slow, and soot-free, ultimately giving you a guilt-free burn. No harm, no foul here!
While health comes first, we strongly believe happiness is right alongside it! Our unique and spunky candle names will put a smile on your face and hopefully remind you to not always take life so seriously. Our candles serve as a sense of comedic relief and a little spark of joy to add to your everyday life... not to mention the magical glowing effect that takes you on a cozy, calming retreat with every light.
Meet the Maker
I'm Tina, a Georgia girl with an Arizona heart. I am the founder and creator of The Zona Co and I LOVE absolutely everything I do for "Zona" as I like to call it. I am driven by my passion to create! I truly enjoy the little things in life and just want to inspire others to love them as well. I want to encourage everyone to follow the dreams that make them feel alive. Life is just too short not to!
So, follow that passion and don't stop chasing your dream!
And remember this as you go: Breathe...Envision...Manifest.
Meaning of the Mantra
I came up with this mantra while daydreaming about my future and envisioning my true goals in life. Shortly after, I came up with the idea for The Zona Co. Since then, this mantra has really been the foundation of everything I create. It's amazing the things that can happen in your life when you just focus on this simple concept: breathe. envision. manifest.
