Our Story

Moonstarca began during one of the quietest, strangest seasons of my life — the COVID-19 pandemic.

Like many people, I was home more than ever. The world felt uncertain, heavy, and overwhelming. Anime became my comfort. The stories, the characters, the music — they reminded me of hope, courage, love, and magic even in dark times.

I started pouring candles at my kitchen table as a small creative escape. Just me. One woman. One dream.

I wanted to capture the feeling of stepping into another world — the warmth of a bathhouse at night, the glow of a tiny flame spirit, the quiet comfort of a magical room, the softness of a peaceful forest.

What began as a personal hobby slowly turned into something more.

Friends encouraged me. Orders started coming in. I stayed up late designing labels, testing scents, pouring wax, packing boxes — all by hand. Every candle was created with intention, inspired by the stories that brought me comfort.

Moonstarca is still proudly a one-woman show.

I design each label, blend and test scents, hand-pour every candle in small batches, pack every order, and answer every message myself. Behind each jar is time, care, and heart.

My goal is simple:
To create candles that feel like stepping into your favorite story.

When you light a Moonstarca candle, I hope you feel:
✨ Cozy
✨ Safe
✨ Inspired
✨ A little bit magical

Thank you for supporting handmade art, small business dreams, and one woman who turned a difficult season into something beautiful.

With love,
