The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 19 August 2022 10 Comments

I'm still hankering after the tomato candle from Nette (although obviously not bad enough to actually buy it), and here's another for my list: Chai Milk. "Fingertips to your lips, hush in the midnight hour. Steamed milk, a secret spice, spells for the lovelorn. Frothy clouds rise up and up. One cardamom bud in your cup. This inky black morning alone with you. Like a perfect steaming hot chai latte on a chilly fall day." $82 (even more than the tomato! but that one was 170g, this one is 340g) at Beautyhabit.

Chipotle will celebrate National Lemonade Day (this Saturday) with a new limited edition lemonade-scented Water Cup Candle, inspired by customers who fill their complimentary water cups with lemonade at the beverage station. The candle goes on sale Thursday morning at Chipotle Goods, $28, and comes with an apparently unnecessary promo code for a free lemonade.

From "clean hair care" brand Ceremonia, the Guava candle: "Gentle, sweet, and balanced, this scented candle blends ripe guava fruit with a delicate hint of lemon zest. South American tonka bean adds nostalgic familiarity alongside subtle whispers of violet, black tea, vetiver, and brown sugar. The result is a layered fragrance that opens up and blossoms with the woodiness of a humid rainforest." 266 ml for $36 at Sephora.

From Vacation (did anybody try the lip balms?), the Home Resort 3 candle set, with High Ceiling Resort Lobby ("Fresh cut flowers, high gloss magazines, delicate swells of air-conditioned ocean breeze"), Well-Tipped Pool Boy ("Coconut sunscreen, recently de-leafed swimming pool, resort towel, a dash of hand-me-down-cologne, desire") and Partial Ocean View Suite ("Crisp white linen, freshly cleaned surfaces, partially-obstructed island breeze"). Three x 241g for $96 at Vacation.
