CANDLE DAY

Candles have secret powers that magically transform our lives. They are used in meditation, spiritual matters, cultural celebrations, or even during that romantic dinner. Candle Day was created to give candle lovers a chance to enjoy the benefits that candles bring.

What is the history of Candle Day?

Candles have existed since the early days. The Chinese would insert incense sticks into wax for a relaxing aroma. In the late 20th century, candles' popularity skyrocketed as most homes adopted them for decorative purposes. Scented candles were used as a means to create a relaxing environment at home. Candle Day was established in 2013 by the infamous Bath and Body Works as a way to offer deals and discounts for candles lovers.

When is Candle Day?

Candle Day is marked on the first Saturday in December. The first Candle Day was marked in 2013, and huge discounts were offered to shoppers.

Why celebrate Candle Day?

We love candles. They are relaxing, beautiful and we can't resist their scent. After a long day at work, a soothing and sweet aroma of scented wax is what we need. The deep fragrance magically cleanses our homes, getting rid of all the funkiness of small spaces. So, celebrate Candle Day and have fun lighting them today.
