Lie back, close your eyes, breathe deeply, and allow the gentle herbal oils in the Calm Candle relax your mind, body, and soul.
With bergamot, petitgrain, and rosemary essential oils, each carefully chosen for their therapeutic benefits, this calming and soothing blend will reduce stress levels, and evoke a sense of calm and balance.
Bergamot (Citrus Bergamia) Essential Oil
Extracted from the hybrid between a lemon and a sour orange, bergamot oil has roots in both Italian folk medicine and Southeast Asia where it is famously used as the primary ingredient in Earl Grey tea. Like other citrus oils, Bergamot oil is known to be energising and uplifting, helping to boost low moods and reduce symptoms of anxiety. It is recognised for its balancing effect, cancelling out disproportionate emotions and helping us feel content and emotionally stable. Cold pressed from the peel, Bergamot has a delicate, subtle fragrance.
Petitgrain (Citrus Aurantium) Essential Oil
Petitgrain essential oil is widely considered to be a joyful and positive natural remedy. It has been reported to improve performance in the workplace by helping to lower stress levels and increase alertness and confidence. An antioxidant oil, petitgrain can help combat the effects of toxins in the body. It also has strong cleaning properties that make it a great natural cleaning agent. Sporting notes of orange blossom with gentle woody undertones, petitgrain oil is extracted via steam distillation from the leaves and twigs of the Citrus Aurantium tree.
Rosemary (Rosemary Officinalis) Essential Oil
Used in traditional healing for thousands of years, rosemary oil is well known for its ability to improve cognitive function and lower stress. It is also said to be great for study and concentration. Research has found that as little as five minutes of rosemary inhalation can significantly reduce cortisone levels (the stress hormone). Rosemary oil has also been linked to emotional regulation as well as improved sleep quality and also has antimicrobial properties. This oil is extracted via steam distillation from the young leaves of the rosemary herb.
The oils are hand-blended in our studio before being added to sustainably sourced soy wax and infused, then hand-poured in small batches to ensure quality. Beautifully presented in a recyclable clear glass jar with a polished silver lid to keep your candle dust-free, small candles will burn for approximately 15-20 hours, medium for 30 -35 hours, and our large candles for 45-50 hours.
Calm Candle
We only use natural soy wax that is sustainably sourced in Europe by our supplier. This means it doesn't contain any palm oils and is environmentally and vegan-friendly. We also don't use any synthetic fragrances, additives, colourings, or scent enhancers - all of the ingredients you see on our labels naturally occur in the essential oils used. Soy wax can be sensitive to temperature fluctuations and you may notice some frosting on the surface of your candle, which is normal and doesn't affect the fragrance or performance.
How to Burn
On first use, burn small candles for 2 hours and medium/large candles for 3-4 hours or until a wax pool that reaches the edge of the container has been established. Depending on fragrance, a full melt pool may not be established until the third burn but don't worry, this is normal as we wick our candles for a slower burn but the melt pool will catch up.
