Hullmark New Mexico,Consciousneww in cosmeteic is our philosophy.

I would like to introduce you to Hullmark Candles, Ruidoso Downs, NM. We are a small company
that manufactures Candles and Bath and Body Products. We do not mass produce our products,
but handcraft them in small batches to insure quality and freshness. The skin is the largest
organ of the body—a delicate shield of protection covering us from head to toe. Much of what
we put on our skin is absorbed directly into the body. For this reason, the products we apply to
our skin must be truly clean and pure, natural and organic, made from ingredients that are
effective and safe.

Local manufacturer introduces 'green' products

When all other attempts at simplifying one's life and reducing stress fail, light a candle, Eileen Hull, product

manufacturer and

owner of Hullmark Candles recommends. Better, yet, make it the first thing you do.

"The moods and energies that candles can create are endless," Hull explains from her little shop at 593 Hwy. 70 East in

Ruidoso Downs. "Candles supply warm light for a romantic setting, a soothing glow with which to wind down a hectic

day,

and/or a dancing flame perfect for celebrating a festive occasion. They enhance every setting."

Although Hull has been producing her specialty line of candles and bath and body products for almost five years now,

she has

only recently made her products and her philosophy for sensual experiences. A Seneca Indian born and raised

in Western

Pennsylvania, in 2001 Hull moved into the area with her husband Carroll (Bud) taking up residency here, and

eventually,

opening a store.

"We've operated a sandwich shop, a car wash, and a Native American Southwest ceramics store over the years but

this is the

first time we've run a candle and soap shop," Hull said. "I had been making these products and selling to

family and friends

here and there when finally it became too much for me to live with. I knew it was time for me to

restore my house into a home

and thus Hullmark Candles was born."

In addition to selling out of her own store, Hull produces soaps and candles for businesses in Lincoln County. Among

her

popular items is a quarter horse designer gift soap that she sells through The Finish Line, a specialties gift shop

located at the

Ruidoso Downs Racetrack and Casino. Hurricane candles encased in images of the Inn of the Mountain

Gods, too, are proving

to be popular, as found in the resort hotel's gift store just off U.S. 70 West at Mescalero Lake. For

the Lavender Spring Ranch

gift shop in Arabela, Hull produces a soap made of essential lavender oil and embossed in a

special mold exclusive to the

ranch. Meanwhile, bath oils and salts, body lotions, lip balms, shower gels, and potpourri

are available at Hullmark Candles in

the Downs individually or carefully packaged in gift sets.

Hullmark Candles abstains from using chemicals and additives in the manufacturing of its personal care products,

preferring

all natural ingredients like shea butter from Tago West Africa, Jojoba oil from the deserts of the Southwest,

pure olive oil,

camellia wax, unrefined honey, and spring water. Soap formulas are available in forms as simple or

ornate as a consumer

may want: plain or castile, glycerin or aloe vera. She also makes a soap special for gardeners

and mechanics and utilizing

ground pumice.

"Hand made soap is good for your body and mind," Hull said. "The skin is the largest organ and it is the body's first line

defense against dehydration, temperature, infection and harmful substances."Unfortunately, many of the soaps

available in

stores is really detergent, or, petroleum-based products. Another common ingredient in commercial soap

is sodium tallowate,

a product made from beef fat. My soaps are a 'green alternative'."

Eileen Hull

so confident that patrons will love her Hullmark products that she offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee on

all

Merchants looking for new product lines to sell in their shops as well as nonprofit organizations in need of a great

"We also can create a personal signature fragrance for an individual, an organization, or a business customized by

scent,

design, size and quantty," Hull said.
