Feature Friday: The Glow of Nostalgia with Vibe & Glo Candle Studio

There are scents that simply smell good. Then there are scents that transport you—scents that unlock a time capsule of moments, feelings, and long-forgotten days of endless possibility. Meadow Dew is one of those rare finds.

One strike of the match and suddenly, it’s the first warm morning of summer, circa 1988. The air is thick with the dewdrop-kissed promise of an adventure yet to unfold. The neighborhood kids are already up, their laughter carried on the breeze as someone cracks open a fresh can of Hi-C Ecto Cooler. Your sneakers hit the pavement, untied but somehow still secure, as you race toward a day filled with scraped knees, sprinkler runs, and the pure, unfiltered joy of a world that hasn’t yet asked too much of you.

That’s the magic of Meadow Dew—the scent equivalent of rewinding a VHS tape to relive your favorite scene. Crisp morning air, soft wildflowers, the lingering memory of freshly cut grass, and just a whisper of something sweet and clean, like the line-dried sheets your mom would hang outside when the weather finally allowed. It’s nostalgia, bottled and set aflame.

And the best part? This isn’t just a candle. Meadow Dew comes in wax melts and a linen/room spray, making it entirely possible to infuse your home with the same untainted wonder that made summers of the ‘80s feel so infinite. Trust me when I say, I want to clean my entire house in this scent. If joy had an aroma, this would be it.

But let’s talk about the hands that made this fragrance possible. Welcome to Vibe & Glo Candle Studio, where self-care isn’t just encouraged—it’s essential. Founded by Mikayla, a labor and delivery nurse turned artisan, this Houston-based brand was born from the need to create a sanctuary of calm after long, grueling shifts. What started as a personal creative outlet has blossomed into a mission-driven brand dedicated to sustainability, self-care, and mental well-being.

Vibe & Glo’s commitment to wellness extends beyond scent. Every candle is made with eco-friendly coconut wax and phthalate-free fragrances—because breathing deeply should never come with compromise. And with every purchase, 5% of proceeds are donated to the Anxiety & Depression Association of America, a testament to the brand’s belief that mental health matters.

From warm vanilla comforts to crisp pine escapades, Vibe & Glo curates fragrances that elevate your space and spirit. Whether you’re lighting up a cozy night in or setting the tone for a fresh new beginning, these scents are more than a moment—they’re a mood, a memory, a feeling you never want to forget.

So go ahead. Strike the match. Inhale deeply. Let Meadow Dew take you back to the summers where anything felt possible. Then, explore the rest of Vibe & Glo’s collection and find your own bottled nostalgia.
