About Us

Welcome to Beards and Wicks, where handcrafted quality meets everyday comfort. I’m Ed, the owner and maker behind every product you see here in Romeoville, Illinois. What started as a one-person mission to create better beard care, no greasy residue, no harsh chemicals, just clean, nourishing ingredients, has grown into a true family affair.
 
These days, you’ll often find me at local vendor markets and craft fairs around the area, with my family right by my side. From product photography to event support, everyone pitches in, making each batch and every market a team effort. It’s a joy to share our passion for honest craftsmanship and small-batch quality with our community, both online and in person.
 
Inspired by my own search for safe, natural home fragrances (especially with asthma and sensitive skin in the family), we expanded beyond beard care. Now, we offer candles, wax melts, room sprays, bath bombs, shower steamers, lotions, body sprays, and diffusers, all made with eco-friendly, responsibly sourced ingredients. Our goal is to help you create a home and self-care routine that’s as good for the planet as it is for you.
 
At Beards and Wicks, it’s about more than just products. It’s about sharing our story, supporting local, and building connections with our customers. Whether you’re upgrading your beard routine, searching for the perfect gift, or looking to fill your space with clean, long-lasting fragrance, we’re grateful you’re here.
 
Thanks for stopping by and supporting our small family business. We can’t wait to help you discover your new favorites!
