Handmade Soap & Candles for Southern Illinois

Illuminated Haven Soap Company is based in Marion, Illinois, and serves shoppers in Herrin and communities throughout Southern Illinois. Marion is where everything is made; the rest of the region is who we make it for.

This page is the shortcut. Below you will find the two local pages — one about our Marion workroom, one written for Herrin-area shoppers — plus a direct route into every collection, so you can go from "I want a fragrance-free bar" or "I need a gift by Friday" to the right page in one click.

Before you order

Recipes differ from bar to bar, so the ingredient listing on each product page is the accurate one for that product. Our soap & candle care and storage guide explain how to make a handmade bar last, the 2026 Collection & Price Guide can be browsed or printed, and you can always contact us with a question first.
