Valentine's Day Candle Ideas
However this holiday finds you, it’s the perfect time to lean into love and whatever it means for you. Whether you’re spending the day solo, with your significant other, or a gaggle of pals…your love is the gift of light to whomever should receive it (even yourself!). So, let GoodLight provide the light, while you find your Valentine vibe.
1. Solo Sparkle
Who says Valentine’s Day is only for couples? Treat yourself to a night of pampering with Lavender Tea Lights. The serene aroma of lavender will turn your bubble bath or journaling session into a spa-like experience. Pair it with your favorite face mask and an apt “Do Not Disturb” sign…and don’t forget to silence your phone (the ultimate stressor, really). Remember:the love you show yourself sets the bar for everyone else!

2. The Netflix & Candle
For those cozying up with their partner, set the scene with Vanilla Nutmeg Cardamom Apothecary Jars. The warm, spicy scent is as comforting as your favorite rom-com (or rom-dram—we don’t judge). Dim the lights, pop some popcorn, and let the soft glow of the candles make your movie marathon feel like a Hollywood romance.

3. Galentine's Glow
Grab your favorite people, a playlist of throwback hits, and Eucalyptus Citrus Tins for a vibe that only this group could conjure. Zesty and refreshing, this scent keeps the party light and breezy while you trade compliments, belly laughs, and brand new inside jokes. Pro tip: group the tea lights in clusters for an Insta-worthy tablescape.

4. The Anti-Holiday Light
No shame in not feeling the Valentine hype - not every holiday is for everyone! But, here’s an opportunity to lighten up with the Noble Fir Poured Glass Candle. Their grounding, forest-fresh scent will remind you that love may come and go, but the calming power of nature is forever. Host a game night or sip on mocktails while embracing your single status with pride.
And, a special release candle for a cause.
