EVIL EYE SANCTUARY’S story begins along with our founder’s journey. When searching for a fresh outlook on life, I unearthed a passion for crystals, transcendental meditation, and becoming a true believer in the word meliorism which is the belief that the world can be made better by human effort. During this personal transformation, I set out to create a line that would increase positivity through products featuring symbols of protection and peace. The goal is to ward off all negative energy that has been brought to us by the stress of everyday life.

Story
Products
Emerging from this passion, Evil Eye Sanctuary opened its doors selling handcrafted candles. Every EVIL EYE SANCTUARY product has been created with the belief that we can ward off any negative energy. Handcrafted using 100% natural, American, soy wax and high-quality non-toxic oils. Today, I’ve expanded our collections to offer crystals, sound healing instruments, sage burners, Milagros wall decor and shortly plan to increase our ranges further.
