Kristin D’Aliso, founder of Hudson Candle, was diagnosed with Lupus + Scleroderma 5 years ago and found solace and ritual in lighting candles and taking long baths to help ease the pain on her most challenging days. This was the spark to create a line of candles inspiring hope and relief. Kristin shares how she taught herself the beautiful art of candle making and the complex nature behind the wax, the wick and the essential oil blends.
