What I love about Made By Coopers is their commitment to natural, organic and plant-derived ingredients. The brand was created by Clare and Darren Cooper. Clare had suffered for years with anxiety disorders and when the couple visited Kerala, the home of Ayurvedic medicine, they were inspired by the therapeutic powers of the different plants used there. They were particularly impressed to experience the positive effect of essential oils on how they felt and on their wellbeing.
After a rather crazy few days, I was thrilled to try their Calm Candle. Beautifully presented in a pure white pot, the engraved wooden lid forms a firm seal to protect those wonderful essential oils between use.
The candle itself is 100% natural, made with soothing Organic Lavender, Bergamot and Ylang Ylang, with base notes of Frankincense and light Rosemary undertones. The only other ingredients are coconut and rapeseed wax, and the unusually high concentration of essential oils was very noticeable – in fact the aroma was so stunning that I was immediately compelled to wrap myself in a blanket and close my eyes (I’m not convinced my boss was totally on board with this reason for the delayed report but I certainly felt great after a very relaxed nap).
Unlike other scented candles, Made By Coopers actually hand pour their candle wax in three stages, meaning that the candle is consistently aromatic throughout its life.
So if you’re scratching your head for a Mother’s Day gift check out Made By Coopers . I can totally recommend Calm Candle at just £28 for a beautifully presented and boxed 170g candle (up to 34 hr burn time) but they have other lovely gifts too – Calm Room Spray at £16.50 and Vanilla Rose Bath Salts at £22.50. Delivery is free for purchases over £20.
