Hello! My name is Alyssa, founder of The Naked Embrace. I am a minority owned small business based in the small town of North East, Maryland. I am passionate about the community, saving the environment, and holistic wellness. I am dedicated to creating a line of non-toxic holistic products that nurtures one's mind, body, spirit, and social needs without causing any harmful or costly side effects to oneself or the environment. With that said, each month we will donate 20% of our sales to a different non-profit or charity that focuses on wellness in the community.

I began experimenting with candles in 2019 as a hobby and I just fell in love! After years of experimenting and learning, in May 2022 we officially launched The Naked Embrace. I specialize in creating not only fabulously scented environmentally friendly candles, but also I like to shake things up with a spicy label. I love seeing the smiles and shock of each customer as they read the label and open each vessel to reveal the most unique and fragrant scents.
