About Southern Haven Essentials™

Southern Haven Essentials™ was founded with one simple purpose: to create products that embody comfort, soul, and the feeling of a true safe haven. Rooted in Southern values of family, resilience, and love, our brand is more than just candles and home goods — it’s about creating spaces that nurture the heart and soul.

Every detail of Southern Haven Essentials™ reflects intentionality. From the hand-poured wax to the carefully chosen fragrances, each product is crafted to bring peace, warmth, and connection into your daily life. We believe a home should tell a story — one filled with love, legacy, and the small details that make life feel whole.

Our signature For My Boys Collection™ was created as a deeply personal tribute to the people who matter most. Inspired by Knoxx, Cameron, Shannon, and Luca, each candle captures an essence — Knoxx’s Room™ with its cozy sweetness, Cameron’s Place™ with its strength and grounding, Shannon’s Field™ with its freedom and light, and Luca’s Ridge™ with its bold, protective presence. Together, they represent what Southern Haven Essentials™ is all about: love, legacy, and the beauty of home.

But our vision doesn’t stop there. Southern Haven Essentials™ is growing into a full lifestyle brand — bringing you not only candles, but soaps, lotions, and everyday essentials that reflect the same warmth, quality, and timeless elegance. Each product is designed to be more than something you use — it’s something you feel, something that connects you back to the safe haven you deserve.

When you welcome Southern Haven Essentials™ into your home, you’re not just lighting a candle or unwrapping a product. You’re embracing a story of resilience, Southern soul, and the belief that every home deserves to feel like a sanctuary. 🌿✨

Royals Southern Haven LLC (Our Parent Company)

was built on one belief: your home should heal you.

After walking through her own seasons of heartbreak, rebuilding, and starting over,

Mendy Royals created a brand that’s more than just services — it’s about sanctuary. Everything we offer is rooted in love, strength, and the reminder that healing begins at home.

Because You Matter

Royals Southern Haven Foundation

Royals Southern Haven Foundation

The Royals Southern Haven Foundation is in progress — a vision rooted in compassion, faith, and resilience. While not yet launched, every candle purchased through Southern Haven Essentials™ helps bring this dream closer to life. Together, we’re building a safe haven for women and families to rise again.

Mission

To walk with women and families as they rise from hardship — offering emotional, practical, and spiritual support that restores dignity, strengthens confidence, and nurtures a new beginning.

Vision

We envision a world where no woman feels discarded, broken, or alone after crisis.

Core Values

  • Compassion First – We will meet people where they are, without judgment.

  • Courage to Rebuild – We believe healing begins when someone dares to start again.

  • Real Connection – We will offer more than services; we will offer presence, truth, and community.

  • Growth Over Perfection – Every step forward matters, no matter how small.

  • Faith-Led Support – We believe in the power of grace, second chances, and divine timing.

Our Next Chapter

The Royals Southern Haven Foundation is currently in the works. While we are not yet offering direct services, we are laying the groundwork for what will become a source of comfort and strength for women and families in need.

When launched, the Foundation will provide:

  • Emotional wellness check-ins & referrals

  • Resource guidance for housing, jobs, and legal aid

  • Donation drives for essentials (hygiene, robes, journals, etc.)

Who We Plan to Serve

Women and families who have:

  • Survived emotional or verbal abuse

  • Endured mental health challenges such as anxiety or psychosis

  • Lost their sense of self in caregiving, codependency, or toxic relationships

  • Experienced divorce, job loss, or deep life transitions
