It's time to join the Benefactress team and discover how a simple candle (in appearance , of course) can become your bff. Because yes, here, every mood deserves its candle. And not just any candle: the one that makes you smile (and/or makes you laugh a lot ), relaxes you, or cheers you up when you need it. So here's how to choose the perfect candle based on your current state of mind.

1. The "I don't want to go to this party but go force myself otherwise my toxic bff will never speak to me again" mood: The " Learn to say fuck " candle, Self-affirmation candle

When you feel like the world is pressuring you or you just want to take back control of your life, it's time to break out your Learn to Say Fuck candle. With its energizing sandalwood scent and message of confidence, it reminds you that a simple NO never killed anyone (and neither did a big, well-placed fuck , for that matter) . Girl, repeat after me: I'm not the neighborhood doormat!

2. The "I'm exhausted, but I'm not giving up (who do you think I am, actually?)" mood: The " You're a determined girl " candle, a candle for the daring

You have goals, dreams, and nothing and no one can stop you. But sometimes, fatigue and doubts set in (and that's just okay : breaking news, we're all humans). For those moments, you need the You're a Deter' Girl candle . Its stimulating scent of ginger and grapefruit invites you to draw on your inner strength to move forward, despite the obstacles. Bold and determined , this candle is here to remind you how DETER you are.

3. The "It's high time you thought about my face, right?" mood: The " Let go, damn it " candle, letting go candle

If you're in a state where you feel like stress is eating away at you and you can't breathe, the Lâche-toi la grappe bordel candle is your best ally. Its sweet and soothing scent of oat milk and honey is a little reminder that you have the right to ask yourself questions . Perfect for reminding you that it's okay to slow down, breathe, and give yourself a well-deserved break. Let go of your emails, put your notifications on airplane mode (or your brain, directly), and remind yourself that your body is not a machine . I promise, the world won't stop turning if you take a day for yourself.

4. The mood "I'm talking to myself maliciously while I'm tearing it up, I just don't know it yet": The candle " Otherwise Self Love, is it right away or now? " , self-love candle

Do I really need to say more ? Self -love isn't linear, of course. But it's not an option either. So, goal for 2025 (and all the years that follow): speak to yourself with kindness , and stop being mega giga (too) mean to yourself. Be your own best ally, right?

5. The "I don't dare step out of my comfort zone (spoiler: go for it, damn it)" mood: The " And if you fail, you'll grow " candle, self-confidence candle

That pottery class you've been dreaming about taking for months? Go . That trip to the other side of the world you've been dreaming about taking? Go . That life-changing email you're afraid to send? Send it , damn it. This candle is here to remind you that failure doesn't matter, girl. It sounds like a bitch about personal development, but I assure you it's true. Plant it. Soon, you 'll grow .

6. The mood "My intrusive thoughts take control every time": The candle " One step at a time " , anxiety candle

This candle is your little boost in your moments of anxiety (and I know only too well how difficult it is), to remind you that every little step counts . With its soothing scent of lavender and eucalyptus, it creates a soft and encouraging atmosphere, ideal for calming anxious thoughts and promoting concentration. If your brain has decided to do a salsa dance with 500 thoughts at once, this candle is the perfect antidote to existential panic. You will handle it all, I promise.

7. The mood "I'm hypersensitive and not always proud of it (it's a shame)": The " We don't give a damn about glitter " candle , hypersensitivity candle

Highly sensitive people, you know what it's like: living with emotions on edge. And you know what? It's time to celebrate this sensitivity like a superpower . The On s'en bat les paillettes candle is perfect for those moments when you're looking to fully accept yourself, while adding a touch of fun and glitter. Because being highly sensitive is also (above all) knowing how to see beauty where others don't.

8. The mood "I feel like the whole world is going to collapse: my nail is broken.": The " Drama Queen " candle , good vibes candle

When you feel like your world is falling apart, light this candle and let yourself laugh about it all. After all, it's all about good vibes.
