There might be just fifteen days until Christmas; but when you’re living on a tropical island, the countdown to the festive season comes without the familiar fanfare and hype.
While I’m desperately missing skating rinks, mulled wine, fairy lights and log fires, there’s no denying that a Caribbean Christmas has its charms. Wham’s Last Christmas strummed on steel drums; mugs of hot chocolate made with freshly ground cocoa and sunbathing on powdery white sand beaches to name but a few.
Inspired by the laid-back festive vibes , family owned beauty company Ligne St Barth have released their latest Christmas inspired scented candle. Like the rest of the luxury beauty brands range, these completely natural burners are made from plants, fruits and flowers native to the island of St.Barthelemy such as coconut wax that replaces synthetic ingredients normally found in candles. The fruity-powdery scent has a warmth that’s redolent of the heat from the sun and sand and has a soft sweetness that’s as lush as rum punch.
