About The Wink Market | Peoria, Illinois
Meet Andrea and the whole Winkler family, Josh, Aleena, and the Twinklers, Davis and Audra. After struggling with infertility, Andrea learned how everyday toxins in our personal and household products affect our health. She started researching ingredients and holistic ways of living, and set out on a mission to educate others about a less toxic lifestyle.
Finding those products locally turned out to be the hard part. So Andrea began dreaming about a store for Peoria that offered safer, healthier options. Over the years that dream grew into something bigger than a single shop.
Andrea has always loved supporting local businesses and shopping the local markets. She just wished that community feeling was more permanent. So she built a space where small businesses could have year-round, easy access to the public, with better products on the shelves. That space became The Wink House in 2023.
For years, The Wink House was a home for dozens of local makers and small business owners, a gathering place for educational classes, seasonal markets, and social groups. It was never only a store.
Where Things Stand Now
In 2026, life took the Winkler family to Arizona, and The Wink House found its next chapter as The Willow Collective under new ownership. The building is still full of local small businesses. The community is still there.
Andrea stepped back from ownership, but she wasn't ready to stop doing the part she loved most. Curating clean products for people who are trying to make better choices is still her thing. So she stayed on as a vendor.
Everything on her shelf is still chosen the same way it always was. She reads the labels, researches the brands, and only stocks what she'd use in her own home. Nothing makes the cut otherwise.
What You'll Find
The Wink Market helps you make simple, cleaner swaps for the products you use every day. Toothpaste, lotion, deodorant, body wash, hair care, beauty, and overall wellness.
You'll also find supplements and products sorted by what you're actually dealing with, whether that's sleep, hormones, energy, nutrition, or skincare.
What Andrea won’t carry? This part has never changed. No synthetic fragrances. No artificial flavors or food dyes. No hormone or endocrine disrupting ingredients.
Andrea looks for brands that focus on eco-friendly products and packaging, made by people who share the same goal of helping others live healthier, happier lives. Only the better and best options make the shelf.
