At St. Eval, we scent our stunning candles with a range of over thirty fragrances inspired by the beauty of the natural world. This week as summer transforms the world around us with sunshine and blue skies, we're taking you behind the fragrance of Rhubarb, one of our best loved summer scents. Inspired by the joy of summer, Rhubarb is a delightful fragrance that perfectly encapsulates the fruity and slightly sweet summer scent of fresh rhubarb

Coloured with blues and greens like precious gemstones, dragonflies are a sight to behold as they dart between leaves and branches, their wings moving almost imperceptibly as they dance through the sky. Here in the UK they’re a staple of summertime, hovering over gardens and bodies of water as we enjoy the warmer weather, a silent presence with wings that glisten in the sun.

On Tuesday the 28th June we hosted a grand opening of our new factory, office expansion, wildlife conservation area and pond. While we celebrated this next step for our business we were honoured to have had our 2021 Queen's Award for Enterprise in Sustainable Development presented to us, and we opened our factory doors to St. Eval friends and neighbours to help us celebrate this wonderful event.

World Environment Day is held on the 5^th of June each year by the United Nations, bringing attention to global environmental issues and calling for collective action to celebrate, protect and restore our planet. This year’s theme is Only One Earth, an initiative aimed at protecting our planet and ensuring that it’s healthy and thriving for future generations. In recognition of this important awareness day, we’ve put together this guide full of tips for living more sustainably.

At St. Eval, we’re inspired by the beauty of the natural world and we feel keenly the responsibility that falls on us, both as individuals and as a company, to Invest in Our Planet and make choices that preserve and protect it for future generations. Earth Day asks us to ‘practice a simple act of green everyday’ and incorporate sustainable practices into our everyday lives in order to make a real difference. We’ve put together this blog, inspired by Earth Day’s important work, recommending some of the simple acts of green that we can all incorporate into our everyday lives.

On Saturday 26th March at 8:30pm we took part in WWF's annual Earth Hour, switching off our lights along with millions of people across the globe in a moment of solidarity to support people and planet. Earth Hour is an amazing initiative raising awareness for climate change, and following on from this years' switch off we're taking its inspiring message of climate consciousness further and finding more small changes that can help us live more sustainably.

We are so proud to announce that our Lavender & Sage soothing botanical Hand Wash and Hand Lotion are now officially approved under the Cruelty Free International Leaping Bunny programme! ⁠  

As we venture into a new year we start dreaming of where it might take us. January is a time symbolic of new beginnings and fresh starts, a month where we find ourselves full of anticipation for the year ahead. Setting resolutions during January is a fun way to challenge ourselves with something new or renew our commitment to goals we made last year.
