Yes — always. Every Melanated Stardust product is made with clean, non-toxic, and cruelty-free ingredients across our entire collection. We’re intentional about what we craft, so you can feel good about what you bring into your home and onto your body.

For our candles, we use a sustainable coconut apricot wax blend and FSC-certified crackling wooden wicks that give a clean, slow, even burn with a soft crackle. We do not use paraffin. Our fragrance blends feature premium fragrance and essential oils that are phthalate-free, paraben-free, and toxin-free, carefully chosen for their quality and scent performance.

Our wax melts are made with a natural coconut–soy blend that provides an excellent scent throw without harmful additives.

Our Room + Linen Sprays are formulated with safe, high-quality bases and clean fragrance oils, offering a light yet lasting scent without harsh chemicals.

Our soaps (bar, liquid, and whipped) and body butters are crafted with plant-based, skin-loving ingredients—no parabens, no phthalates, no fillers.

Even for future limited-run items, our standards remain the same: clean, safe, and elevated.

Every ingredient we choose is intentional. No shortcuts, ever.

Where are your products made?

All Melanated Stardust products are handcrafted in small batches in Chicago, Illinois. Each of our products are made with intention and care — no big factory lines here, just thoughtful craftsmanship and good energy.

Absolutely. Our scents and products are made for everyone. We lean into warm, modern, balanced blends — no “for her” or “for him,” just elevated fragrances that make you feel good.
