Lit Artisan Refillable Candles. Zero waste, zero plastic, free from toxins. ElleDécor|Stylist|MarieClaire

Founded in 2020, in response to the global pandemic which pressed paused the world, Lit was born from a desire and need to be creative, positive and productive from home when it’s founder found herself out of work. Combining her pastime making healthy scented candles with a passion for living a more sustainable lifestyle, founder Heather Gilberthorpe Pell developed recipes using 100% natural ingre

dients that are responsibly sourced. Guided by high crafting standards, we make everything in small batches from our workshop in Sheffield. We carefully craft our blends, with each scented candle containing the highest dose of essential oils to achieve the best possible scent. Our candles are made from GMM-free rapeseed wax sourced from the EU, giving them a much lower carbon footprint than many soy based candles and are scented with essential oil blends that release a full and pure scent with no carcinogens or soot.

We're exploring a new way to portray our Signature Scents vicariously, through colour...

Exploring how fragrance can be seen as well as felt — translating notes, moods, and memories into colour. Texture, deep tones, unexpected contrasts… each shade a reflection of a scent’s character.

Fragrance lingers in memory, shifts with emotion, and resists being fully explained. That complexity is what draws us in ✨

This is our way of capturing it, just for a moment, in colour.

Shift your bathroom into spa mode — natural fragrance is a clever way to shift the space's identity from its everyday use to something special.

Green notes — such as rosemary, clary sage, black spruce, and geranium — that conjure a sense of being outdoors, enveloped in nature, are perfect for creating an extra special, spa-like ambience.

Steer clear of synthetic fragrance, and your mind and body will benefit from the aromatherapy of natural fragrance, derived from essential oils ✨
