Brand story

Slow North

Slow North started the way a lot of good things do: in a backyard garage, with a new baby in the house. In 2015, after her first son was born, founder Michelle Simmons went looking for candles with ingredients she actually wanted to breathe around her family. She didn't love what she found, so she started pouring her own in Austin, Texas.

That garage project grew into a studio that still hand pours every candle in small batches. The recipes are lean: soy wax, cotton wicks, and 100% essential oils. No synthetic fragrance, no artificial dyes, no mystery list on the label. Soaps, linen sprays and reed diffusers followed, all built on the same idea. Fewer, better ingredients, and scents that are familiar.

Here's the part we really love. Slow North gives 10% of its profits to four causes: the Central Texas Food Bank, The SAFE Alliance, RAICES, and Kiva micro-loans. So the candle on your nightstand is also helping keep pantries stocked and neighbors supported back home in Texas and around the world.

Simple ingredients, easy rituals, and a little good done. That's Universal Design with a warm glow.

Why We Love It

Add a reed for more scent, take one out for less, then simply walk away.

Somewhere between the front door and the coat hooks, your entryway could smell a lot better. Meet the reed diffuser. Pop the rattan reeds into the 4 oz bottle of Shangri-La, a blend of eucalyptus, lavender, and lemongrass, and it quietly scents an entryway, bathroom, or desk for about two to three months.

Want it stronger? Add a reed. Softer? Take one out. Flip them now and then to wake the scent back up. It's phthalate free and made in Austin.

No flame, no cord, nothing to remember. Set it and walk away: the kind of design that fits every busy household.
