Whether used during meditation, prayer, journalling or simply to refresh a room, this holder brings beauty and intention to your daily rituals.

Experience the refreshing clarity of peppermint and the gentle calm of Tasmanian lavender in this hand-poured, all-natural candle.

This balanced blend brings together cool, invigorating mint with soft, floral notes, creating a scent that awakens the mind while easing the body. It is both revitalising and restorative, ideal for moments of focus, unwinding, or quiet reset.

Crafted from a pure coconut and soy wax blend with a natural cotton wick, this candle offers a slow, clean burn of over 40 hours, allowing the aroma to gently fill your space.

The essential oils at work:

• Peppermint: Cooling and clarifying, supports mental focus, relieves tension, and may assist in easing headaches and fatigue. It brings a sense of freshness and alertness.
• Tasmanian Lavender: Calming and restorative, supports relaxation, soothes the nervous system, and promotes a sense of ease and restful stillness.

Why Natural Candles

We consciously avoid paraffin wax and synthetic fragrances. When burned, these can release harmful compounds such as benzene and toluene, contributing to indoor air pollution and impacting both health and the environment.

Paraffin, a petroleum by-product, is non-renewable and not biodegradable. In contrast, coconut, soy, and beeswax are natural, renewable materials that burn cleanly, producing minimal soot and supporting a healthier living space.

We use 100% pure essential oils rather than synthetic fragrances. Beyond scent alone, essential oils offer gentle therapeutic benefits, supporting clarity, calm, and nervous system balance.

In essence, this candle is more than fragrance, it is a clean, conscious ritual of light, scent, and restoration.

Peppermint is a vibrant, aromatic herb that thrives in rich, well-watered soils and temperate climates. Grown under open skies, its bright green leaves are harvested just before flowering, when their essential oil content is at its peak. Organic cultivation preserves the purity and intensity of its menthol-rich profile, while careful drying ensures the leaves retain their colour, fragrance, and therapeutic vitality.  As a tisane, peppermint offers a clean, invigorating infusion - cooling, refreshing, and deeply clarifying. It awakens the senses while simultaneously settling the body, making it both uplifting and soothing. Traditionally used to support digestion, relieve bloating, and ease tension, peppermint brings a sense of lightness and flow.

Red rooibos is a remarkable South African botanical, native to the rugged Cederberg Mountains of the Western Cape, where it grows in sandy, mineral-rich soils beneath the warmth of the African sun. Unlike conventional tea, rooibos comes from a shrub rather than the tea plant, Camellia sinensis. Its fine, needle-like leaves and stems are carefully harvested, cut and bruised before undergoing a natural oxidation process that transforms their green colour into the distinctive copper-red hue for which rooibos is loved. The leaves are then dried in the sun, developing their naturally sweet, earthy aroma and beautifully rounded flavour. Organically grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, red rooibos reflects the unique landscape from which it comes. Naturally caffeine-free and rich in plant polyphenols, it has long been enjoyed in South Africa as an everyday herbal infusion, traditionally used to soothe digestion and provide comfort. There is something wonderfully grounding about rooibos, with its warm, mellow character and gentle sweetness. A nourishing tisane to enjoy throughout the day and into the evening, inviting a moment of warmth, simplicity and restoration.

Part Used: Leaves and fine stems

Traditionally Used by Naturopaths & Herbalists: As a gentle, caffeine-free herbal infusion to support digestive comfort, particularly for occasional indigestion, abdominal discomfort and colic. Rooibos contains naturally occurring polyphenols, including aspalathin and nothofagin, which have demonstrated antioxidant activity in laboratory research. It is also enjoyed as a soothing everyday beverage suitable for those wishing to reduce their caffeine intake.

Botanical Name: Mentha spicata

Part Used: Leaf

Traditionally used by Naturopaths & Herbalists to help soothe the gut - tummy discomfort, wind, bloating and inflammation, refresh the breath and cool a fever.  It has also traditionally been used to support hormonal balance, particularly in women with elevated androgens such as testosterone. It has been shown to have anti-androgenic effects, helping to lower free testosterone levels by influencing how androgens are produced and metabolised in the body. This can be especially supportive in conditions such as PCOS, where excess testosterone may contribute to symptoms like acne, excess hair growth, and irregular cycles.  It is commonly used as an infusion, taken daily, as a gentle and accessible way to assist in restoring hormonal equilibrium.
