IL•LUMINATE candles are made entirely from sustainable ingredients, infused with a blend of luxurious fragrance oils and essential oils to create a range of unique scents.
At IL•LUMINATE, we work hard to create a balance between luxury and sustainability. Our candles are made from natural beeswax, coconut wax and rapeseed wax and are scented with the highest quality fragrances and essential oils, coupled with a wick made from sustainable cotton and recyclable handmade packaging.
Inspired by a story of light and hope, we believe that IL•LUMINATE candles evoke a tranquil space, full of beautiful light, whilst supporting our precious environment.

How IL•LUMINATE started
During the pandemic IL•LUMINATE founder Inga Lovric noticed that her house had become not just a home but an office, school and gym. During that time, she discovered the power that a scented candle had to create light and boundaries in her everyday spaces, and it was this that inspired her to create her first candle.
A refugee who lost everything when she escaped war-torn former Yugoslavia in the 90s, Inga rebuilt her life in London, where she has raised her two daughters and established a successful career as an award-winning TV producer. From dark days living in a warzone, to her busy life today, Inga has never lost sight of the power of light to guide and bring joy to everyday life.
It is this love of light, combined with her passion for scents that motivated Inga to launch her own luxury candle brand in 2021 and allow her to share her love of light with others.
