GORGEOUS FRAGRANT CANDLES, ROOM SPRAYS, DIFFUSERS & OILS FOR YOUR HOME

Press Sample (Affiliate Links)

I was thinking about the way in which the stay-at-home order, during the COVID-19 pandemic, has rooted us to our homes like never before, and it occurred to me that one of the things that is helping soothe my spirit is regularly indulging in a variety of home fragrances. Lovely candles, room sprays, reed diffusers and oil diffusers have enhanced my home, and giving me a measure of joy in the midst of an otherwise very stressful time. In Los Angeles County, which is the epicenter of the epidemic in California, our stay-at-home order was just extended through July. Therefore, we aren't likely to emerge from our homes until August! 
I absolutely love gorgeous fragrant candles, and my Sanari Plant-Based Candles that are among my all-time favorite candles.

About Sanari, 

Founded in 2014, we are the only truly Plant-Based Candle line, made with Kosher Certified Essential Oils, Non-GMO Soy Wax and Organic Coconut Wax.  We are passionate about the Green Living movement, and carefully certify all of the ingredients we use.  We’re hand poured, small batch in Los Angeles.

Furthermore, each hand poured candle is housed in a recycled stemless wine glass that was recycled and is recyclable, and it is topped by a wonderful wooden fitted lid.

Sanari Sorbetto Plant-Based Candle ($39.95 for 16 oz. from the Sanari Amazon Store): This utterly delectable and intoxicating candle is a citrus herbal blend of blood orange, coconut and vanilla bean. The lovely aroma fills the air with its gorgeous essence, while the healthy candle burns clean.

Burn time: 80+ Hours

According to Sanari,

A luscious note of tangy fruits with sweet blood orange and exotic Persian lime, on a heart of creamy coconut falling into buttery vanilla bean, finishing it off with a touch of cinnamon.

Sanari Aria Plant-Based Candle ($44.00 for 16 oz. from the Sanari Amazon Store): This lovely candle boasts the most soothing and calming aroma that is punctuated by a citrusy floral scent that is offset by the depth of Ylang Ylang and cedar wood without being overly assertive or cloying. It fills the air with its beautiful and creamy fragrance, while burning clean and smoke-free.

Burn time: 80+ Hours

According to Sanari,

A sweet and herbal notes of refreshing eucalyptus, a shimmer of bergamot and juicy sweet tangerine falling into beautifully fragrant ylang ylang, fresh mint and lavender, finishing it off with warm patchouli and calming cedar wood.

Tips from Sanari: "To best preserve your candle store out of heat, humidity and direct sun. Burn only on non-flammable, heat safe surfaces. The natural wax creates a generous melted wax pool when in use; extinguish candle to cool completely before touching or moving. For a nice glow and long lasting burn; burn up to 3-4 hours at a time. gently remove excess burnt wick with a napkin, each time before lighting your candle."
Alora Ambiance Isola Reed Diffuser ($60.00 for 8 oz. Reed Diffuser and $90.00 for 16 oz. from the official Beautyhabit Amazon Store): which is their most popular fragrance for good reason, is a delectable floral mix of gardenia, tuberose and fig. It is a light and airy fragrance without being too sweet, and it isn't in the least bit pungent. The fragrance might be likened to the experience of walking through a fragrant garden during a warm summer breeze– it is at once ethereal and deeply pleasurable. I have mine in my master bathroom, and each time I open the door I am greeted by its delectable aroma. 
According to Alora Ambiance,

Isola's floral mix of gardenia, tuberose and fig is one of our most popular fragrances. One of the lightest fragrances in our collection and perfect for a bedroom.

Aroma Foundry Essential Oils and Infinity Jars Obsessions

Press Sample (Affiliate Links)

I realize that I haven't said much, in these virtual pages, about my love of essential oils, but suffice it to say, I have had this penchant for many years. I periodically add a few drops to body products, or apply a drop to my wrists, but my all-time favorite use is adding them to my diffuser to create the most inviting and relaxing physical environment in my home. When applying essential oils to the skin, and to body products, one ought to be mindful of the fact that many have medicinal effects, and should be handled with great care and caution. Therefore, seeking advice from a specialist, and learning about the specific properties, and effects, of each of the essential oils that you are considering is of paramount importance. They are also very concentrated and should be used very sparingly, and they can cause serious skin irritations when used improperly. 

While each essential oil has a whole host of aromatherapeutic properties and attributes, I tend to choose them based upon a more visceral reaction to the aromas themselves– particularly since I primarily use them in a diffuser, rather than on the skin, to create an aromatic experience in my house. Also because we live with animals, I use essential oils in a diffuser to deodorize the house. 

My most recent discovery for high quality essential oils is Aroma Foundry, and they do not disappoint! 

Aroma Foundry sells a line of 100% pure, and all natural, essential oils. Each of their essential oils have been sourced from, "native locales around the globe known for their purity for that oil." They assert that their team carefully selects "the best representation of the essence of each plant"– and therefore brings the highest quality essential oils to the consumer.

I also have a great love of small pretty boxes and containers in which to store makeup and skincare, and prefer to look at beautiful things that follow the tenet of form following function. When I sought to take pictures of the Aroma Foundry essential oils, I looked at my beautiful Infinity Covered Glass Dish, and decided that it would be the perfect home for my new essential oils.

Infinity Jars makes high quality, high performance storage containers that can be used for "cooking ingredients, dried herbs, bitters, tea, coffee, cosmetics, nuts, oils, etc." They feature highly effective, "airtight and light optimized" containers that protect the contents from air and light, and therefore they extend the shelf-life of the products that they store. 
Aroma Foundry Ylang Ylang Oil, from Madagascar, (Regularly $22.98. On Sale for $11.98 for .5 fl oz from Aroma Foundry and Aroma Foundry Amazon Store): I love using Ylang Ylang on my wrists, and in my diffuser before I fall asleep because it has a tremendous calming and relaxing effect. Its unique earthy, quasi-floral aroma is one that I find utterly hypnotic.

According to Aroma Foundry,

Sourced from a country where Ylang Ylang is so popular that it's even eaten in ice cream, our Madagascar ylang ylang essential oil is 100% Pure, All Natural, and so good that they named it twice. You'll reach for it again and again once you get a whiff of its delicate, jasmine-like sweet floral scent.

Aroma Foundry Lavender Essential Oil, from the USA, (Regularly $17.98. On Sale for $9.98 from Aroma Foundry and Aroma Foundry Amazon Store): This is one of the most lovely lavender essential oils that I have ever tried. In fact, its silky smooth aroma retains all of the finest qualities associated with high quality lavender, while having none of the pungency that some of the lower quality oils feature. I feel as though I am standing in a lavender field each time I smell this lovely oil.

According to Aroma Foundry,

Our Best Selling Essential Oil, Lavender is one of the most useful, unique, and popular essential oils. We get ours in the United States; when you catch a whiff it'll recall lavender flowers you walk by in a planter or garden. Steam distilled from the violet blue flowers, ours is 100% Pure and All Natural. We should add that it is also 100% made from lavender oil; many sellers dilute it and still claim it to be lavender.

It is the perfect size to house a beautiful bar of soap, loose setting powders, jewelry, herbs and anything else that you want to store in a beautiful and elegant minimalist container. It boasts a high quality glass construction with a snug fitting lid, that creates an airtight seal, and light-blocking opaque UV glass that helps to preserve the contents of the vessel.

According to Infinity Jars,

We are proud to present our most unique product yet, the 100 ml (3.38 fl oz) All Glass Covered Dish! Dishes like this are rare but are so useful!

The dish comes with an all ultraviolet glass lid, ground specially to create an airtight seal once placed on the top of the dish. This stops all your delicious aroma or potency from escaping and keeps damaging oxygen out. In addition, the UV glass itself increases preservation by selectively allowing in healing and energizing infrared and UVA light and completely blocking all visible light that accelerates the rate of decay on organic matter.

I love high quality body exfoliators, and I really love using them. I enjoy the refreshing process of sloughing off dead skin cells, and revealing silky smooth skin. However, I like gentle formulas without jagged exfoliating particles that can tear and damage the skin. My most recent body scrub obsession is the lovely COWSHED Gorgeous Cow Blissful Shower Scrub, and not only is it gentle, but the delectable rose scent makes using it an unmitigated delight. It looks a bit like strawberry jam, and smells equally edible, and unlike many body scrubs that contain oils, this one does not make an oily and slippery mess of your shower. The Jojoba Beads and Coconut Fibre are simultaneously very gentle on the skin and extremely effective in their ability to exfoliate the skin. Therefore, this scrub is a great choice for all skin types– including sensitive skin. Skin is left soft, silky smooth, supple and ultra-luminous.

According to COWSHED,

Power-packed with natural ingredients including Avocado Oil and Vitamin E, this scrub will leave you with ultra-soft, glowing and delicately fragranced skin. The luxurious rose scented formula contains both Jojoba Beads and Coconut Fibre which won’t be too tough on sensitive skin, but is perfect for those who prefer a slightly grittier scrub to slough away dead skin cells.
