STARLITE SOAP STUDIO IS NOW WYCHBURY AVE SOAP & GIFTS!

STARLITE SOAP STUDIO IS NOW WYCHBURY AVE SOAP & GIFTS!

Starlite Soap Studio Has Transitioned to Wychbury Ave Soap & Gifts

We’re thrilled to share that as of August 1st, 2025, Wychbury Ave Soap & Gifts has officially taken over the former Starlite Soap Studio location on Courtney Street!

How It All Came Together

On Saturday, June 14th, Melissa Labelle of Wychbury Ave, along with Alain and Ian of Starlite, announced the exciting news of the transition.

Why the Change?

After many joyful years of running Starlite, Ian and Alain have officially retired and embarked on new travel adventures. They were looking for someone special to carry on the creative spirit of the studio—and Melissa was the perfect fit.

What’s Next?

Starlite Soap Studio closed its doors on July 31st, and Wychbury began transforming the space immediately after. Renovations and rebranding are expected to be complete by mid-August.

Will things change under Wychbury?

Yes—but in all the best ways!
Starlite’s most-loved workshops will continue, now led by the talented Wychbury team. Expect fresh energy, a new look, and exciting new products and services.

Will Starlite still run workshops until the transition?

Absolutely! It's full steam ahead for Starlite until July 31st—all workshops, open studio sessions, and private events will continue with unbridled enthusiasm!

When will Wychbury Ave start offering workshops?

Melissa plans to launch Wychbury’s workshop schedule in mid-August, with a full fall/winter lineup to follow.

Will workshop prices change?

Not for now—Wychbury plans to continue with Starlite’s pricing, which includes all materials, equipment, and instruction.

Are Wychbury’s soaps vegan?

Yes! Wychbury’s soaps are vegan and palm-free.

Can I still use my Starlite reward points?

Reward points are not longer redeemable. 

Can I still use my Starlite gift card or missed workshop credit?

Yes—please use both before July 31st, as Wychbury won’t be able to honour past programs.

What if I can’t pick up my soap, candle, or bath bomb?

Melissa will hold on to your projects for pickup.
