I actively search out ethical, sustainable and environmentally friendly products these days because I believe that we all have our part to play, however small. Candles used to be the sort of thing I purchased for other people as a gift, not for something I’d purposely buy for myself. However, if the last two years has taught me anything, it’s that it’s important to take care of yourself. And it’s the little things that make the difference, not the huge, life-changing ones. So I practise self-care nowadays, through the use of gentle fragrances to relax and enhance my wellbeing and this candle from Earth Candle, does not disappoint. Not only does it look lovely and stands up well to any ornament on your window sill or shelves, its scent is sweet yet subtle; an aroma that gently diffuses through your phsyche without overpowering you with that headache-inducing smell you often find with candles. What drew me to Earth Candle was the ethos of the company. They care about nature, planting a tree for every candle made and their products are planet friendly, cruelty free and sustainable. That in itself was enough to make me want to buy one of their products. The fact my cedar wood and jasmine candle smells so delicious too is an added bonus.
