Lush turns fan-favourite fragrance into a candle perfect for long candlelit baths

There’s nothing better than a candlelit bath with a bath bomb or, if you’re feeling extra indulgent, a bubble bar. Now, Lush fans can now enjoy their favourite fragrances in a new way after the bath-bomb brand has turned one of their best-selling scents into a candle.

It comes as the bath and body brand have released a line of three home fragrances perfect for burning while you enjoy a soak. Following the success of their limited edition Snow Fairy candle last year, Lush launched the three scented candles online and in their stores on April 21.

Now, one of the brands most popular fragrances - Sleepy - has been turned into a candle, offering up to 15 hours of soothing lavender scent.

I need a Sleepy candle.” To which the high street retailer responded: “A sleepy candle would be amazing! It's not something we currently do, but we have explored it before. You never know what the future may bring!”

Four years on, the future has brought fans a Sleepy candle, poured into a frosted glass jar with a purple label, costing £12 for 75g.

The candle base is made up of rapeseed wax, coconut oil, coconut wax, and castor wax and remains palm, paraffin, soy-free, and 100 per cent vegan.

Sleepy is made with lavender oil and ylang ylang to help relax users, helping them unwind after a long day with a ‘sweet and heady fragrance’.

Lush product inventor, Gary Shears, said: “At Lush, we believe in long candlelit baths so we wanted to create the perfect candle to accompany your bath time. It
