About

That Skinny Bitch was founded and created by Reyjeane Haroun of Maison Reyjeane and manufactured by the talented duo Michelle & Erik of Okra Candles in Cape Town, South Africa. That Skinny Bitch is the ultimate dinner candle. Each candle is hand-dipped and the marble bases supplied are hand-honed making this range of dinner candles incredibly artisanal, luxurious and unique. The candle bases are also re-usable therefore adding to the environmentally friendly aspect of this range. The focus and main aim of That Skinny Bitch candle is about going back to the art of making something.

That Skinny Bitch was born out of a need to have a more delicate, refined looking candle that didn’t disrupt your view and provided just the right amount of glow to your table-top. The founders’ own passion for Tablescaping (which became hugely popular during the Covid-19 pandemic; as the shift of moving back into our homes and entertaining at home became not only the focus or reality but the necessity of the times). Reyjeane also wanted to create a product that was cheeky; fun and not serious at all in its approach; thus the name: That Skinny Bitch.

The entire process is locally made in Cape Town; from the founder to the manufacturers, to the packaging supplier; all of whom are South African making this a product that is proudly South African.

We have plans to expand with an accessories range to compliment the dinner candles, luxury bases in different materials, a That Skinny Bitch candelabra, candlesticks and many more candle colours. The creative options and elements are endless. Why use an ordinary candle on your table-top when you can be extraordinary? Enter That Skinny Bitch…

Light it up, it’s time to Shine!
