Founded in 2019 by Sinead, inspired by beautiful Cornwall, slow-living and sustainability.

From a young age, I was surrounded by fragrance—whether it was incense, candles, or various oils. My grandmother ran her own skincare business, and there was nothing her beloved comfrey cream couldn’t heal! Her little studio, filled with lotions and potions, was a place of magic that I’d watch her tend to with care.

I must have absorbed this love for all things aromatic and therapeutic because now, there’s nothing I enjoy more than pottering around my studio, blending, mixing, and experimenting with new scents. I began creating my own candles nearly seven years ago, and I’ve never looked back.

Candle making has proven to be one of the most technical, challenging, and rewarding skills I’ve ever taken on. It’s a true craft, and even after years of practice, there’s always something new to learn.

Perfecting a new candle can take months, requiring careful testing of various waxes, wicks, blends, and fragrance loads. Even the temperature of the room can influence the final result. But when I finally discover that perfect combination, it’s truly a eureka moment!

At La LUNA, our candles are inspired by the wonderful Cornish landscape that surrounds us, crafted to soothe, comfort, and bring a touch of joy to your space.

Each candle is lovingly handcrafted in small batches from scratch, using only the finest ingredients. Our eco-friendly wax is derived from the renewable soy plant, making it a natural alternative to petroleum-based paraffin candles. Unlike many conventional candles, our wax is free from GM materials, biodegradable, vegan, and cruelty-free.

We are also proud to be a plastic-free small business, committed to reducing our environmental footprint.
