With our Lavender Chamomile candle, we set out to design the ultimate self-care candle. Equally at home in the office or by the bath, we knew this candle had to be versatile, balanced, and calming.Ā
We started the design process with a high quality lavender essential oil. The smell of lavender has been shown to regulate heart rate, breathing rhythm, and hormone secretion. Plus, lavender has been shown to calm the nervous system after overconsumption of caffeine!
Next we called upon chamomile, an ancient but powerful herb. Studies suggest that chamomile reduces stress by combatting a stress-induced hormone called adrenocorticotropic hormone.
With woody lavender and sweet chamomile, we needed a special ingredient to balance the candle. We settled on sandalwood in order to imbue the candle with fresh and velvety sweet fragrance notes.Ā
This calming and relaxing candle is one of our favorites. We recommend using it during work, before bedtime, or when you need a little extra calmness.Ā
