It’s “LIT BKLYN” Literally!

Now you know justabrooklyngyrl is all about melanin and supporting black owned businesses in and out of Brooklyn. The goal-getters, innovators and risk takers! Who find their passion then live, sleep, eat, and breathe it! I think you guys get the picture. LIT Brooklyn is nothing short of these things. I first fell in love with this company during Essence Street Style Block Party.  The welcoming scent as well as the customer service had me sold!

Long day? Need some “me” time? You know have a moment! With Sade tunes on repeat a glass of your favorite wine and light a LIT candle for the finishing touch! (60 hours burning time by the way!)

Founders Denequa Williams and Akenea Dillion started LIT Brooklyn in 2015 and its been “LIT” ever since! The candles are made with 100% natural soy wax and scented with a high quality fragrance.  From the scents to packaging, the ladies def hit a homerun with this one!

Be sure to get “Lit” with these beauties! Order one of each scent then add two of my fav “JOY” to cart!
