About our Founder
Denise M. Harris
Founder & CEO
Heaven Essence, LLC
Denise Harris grew up on her family's soybean farm in Ohio, one of 13 children. Here she learned not only the discipline of hard work, but also the benefits of soy oil. The story goes that as a little girl, Denise would ride in the back of the combine as her father harvested the beans. Playful and curious, she would squeeze the oil out of the soy and rub it over her hands noticing how her skin smelled good and felt softer for days after.
​
Denise's first career took her all around the world as a travel planner of sales and incentive meetings for Fortune 100 companies. Here she visited many top hotels and resorts and fell in love with their luxury spa experience. The rejuvenating effects of a little pampering combined with some self-care tips she could perform herself stuck with Denise as a life lesson.
​
What if there was a way to provide luxury spa experiences at home? What if she could bottle that up and make it available to and audience who may not have the opportunity or time to visit a world-class spa? Thanks to fate, Denise would end with that very chance and it presented itself in the most unlikely of ways.
​
After the economic downturn post-911, corporate travel budgets were cut dramatically and the worsening economy hit Denise hard.
Scrounging up her last $100, she purchased a candle-making kit from a local store and proceeded to burn down her kitchen. Crestfallen and ready to give up she remembered back to her days on the farm and tried soy instead of wax. The rest is history.
​
Through this courageous act of faith and the support of her friends and family, Denise developed a top-producing direct sales force impacting the lives of thousands. Denise's ability to do what it takes to reach success can be attributed to her direct, straight-to-the point manner. She sets herself apart from other entrepreneurs by combining raw motivation style and pure passion.
​
Denise is passionately dedicated to the her faith, her three children, and loving friends.

Regular candles and most soy candles are made with a type of wax called parrafin. These candles require metal in the wick in order to reach the temperature needed to melt, which results in "black smoke" residue that can accumulate on your walls and ceilings over time.
Our candles and lotions are made of pure soy and vitamin E with no paraffin or wax. All fragrances are organic, and the wicks are 100% cotton. Because soy burns at a much lower temperature than wax, it is gently warm to the touch and safe to use, even while still lit. Just pour a little bit into your hands and massage onto your skin, or someone else's, for a refreshing spa experience at home.
