The story behind LightWater
Alyssa started LightWater to help people slow down and come back to themselves. She thinks of each blend as a small daily ritual: a roller before a meeting, a mist on your pillow at night, a candle lit when you get home.
Everything is blended by hand in small batches, with no machines, so each bottle is fresh when it leaves Halifax. She looks for wild-harvested plants first and chooses certified organic when wild isn't possible.
The original seven blends are built around the seven chakras, from Strength for the root to Ritual for the crown. Newer scents follow the seasons and the people around her: Folklore for cool nights and bonfires, Winter Woods for a walk through the evergreens, and Bohème, a natural perfume made with Kimi of Indie Home.
One scent, several ways
Find a scent you love, then choose how you'd like to use it. Here's Relax in each format.
Essential oil blend: 10 mL of pure essential oil with a dropper. Add 3 to 6 drops to your diffuser.
Wellness roller: the same blend at 7% in a light, coconut-derived oil, ready to roll onto your wrists or neck.
Everyday mist: the blend in water and witch hazel, in a 120 mL spray for the room, your sheets or your pillow.
Candle: 198 g of coconut soy wax scented only with essential oils.
Essential oil blends
Pure essential oil in a 10 mL dropper bottle, for your diffuser, a bath (stir it into a spoonful of carrier oil first) or a body oil you mix yourself. Winter Woods is crisp evergreen, Relax is dry wood and soft florals, Breathe is fresh peppermint and eucalyptus, and Harmony is palo santo, sage and lime.
Wellness rollers
Each roller is a LightWater blend already diluted to 7% in a light, coconut-derived oil, in a 10 mL bottle with a leakproof rollerball. Roll it onto your wrists or the back of your neck, then breathe in. They fit in a pocket and make easy stocking stuffers.
Everyday mists
Pure essential oils in water and witch hazel, in a 120 mL bottle with a fine spray. Give it a shake, then mist the room, your sheets and pillow before bed, or the air around your desk when you need a reset.
Candles
Coconut soy wax scented only with 100% pure essential oils, with no synthetic fragrance, phthalates or parabens, in the same scents as the blends: Winter Woods, Folklore, Resilience and Relax. They're the only candles we carry scented purely with essential oils. Trim the wick to 1/4" before each burn, and let the first burn melt the wax to the edge of the jar.
Massage oil
Ebb+Flow as a ready-to-use massage oil: apricot, safflower, pomegranate and jojoba oils carrying the floral, softly woody Ebb+Flow blend, in a 120 mL pump bottle.
Bohème, two ways
Bohème is the natural perfume blend LightWater made with Kimi of Indie Home: warm sandalwood, bergamot and patchouli, pink peppercorn and vanilla, with a soft floral finish of geranium and ylang ylang. Wear the roller on your wrists and keep the mist for the room.
Resilience, roller and mist
Resilience is minty and fresh, with bergamot, lavender, copaiba, cypress and spearmint. Keep the roller in your bag and the mist on your desk, or light the Resilience candle at home.
