about
A note from our founder
The word Equinox reflects a sacred balance—between light and dark, old and new, the wilderness and one's self. Perfect for a modern apothecary rooted in herbal tradition and born from both personal practice and professional training.
As an aromatherapy student and trained meditation teacher, I feel passionate about integrating traditional knowledge with evidence-based approaches to support wellbeing and stress reduction.
Equinox is my way of weaving this ancient plant medicine into everyday rituals. Each handcrafted product is an invitation to re-connect—with the planet, with ritual, and with our own bodies.
I hope Equinox offers a touchstone, an anchor, and a sanctuary for restorative healing.

FOLKLORE
Mar scoláire ar dhraíocht agus ar thraidisiúin na meánaoiseanna tíre i nGarbhchríocha na hAlban, tá mé faoi dhraíocht ag conas is féidir le plandaí agus an domhan nádúrtha ár saol laethúil a shaibhriú. Lá amháin tá súil agam leabhar a fhoilsiú ar gach rud atá foghlamtha agam, ach idir an dá linn tá draíocht sa bhreis fite agam isteach i mo leá céir ar féidir taitneamh a bhaint as dá gcuid scéalta féin, nó mar inspioráid chun do dheasghnátha agus traidisiúin nua-aimseartha féin a chruthú. Insíonn gach comhábhar luibheolaíoch nádúrtha a úsáidtear i mo chéir planda dúchais nó planda eadóirsithe a fhaightear sna hOileáin Bhriotanacha agus a bhfuil áit dhraíochtúil aige ina bhéaloideas.
planting for the future
Equinox sponsors a grove at Trees for Life, an organisation on a mission to re-wild the forests and protect the habitats of Scotland's native species. A portion of all sales goes towards new plantings in our grove and to supporting the organisation's activities. It is so important that we look after our planet for generations to come, and it starts by better understanding the impact of deforestation or over harvesting in our own back yards. To learn more about the re-wilding of the Scottish forests, or to donate directly to our grove please visit us below.
safety & the environment
We use only sustainable, vegan, non-GMO soy wax made in Sweden, that is devoid of toxic substances or synthetic additives (only botanical additives) and cruelty-free high-end fragrance oils or organic essential oils to make our products. This means you get cleaner burns and safer air emissions when using our home fragrances. However, with the use of any candle, melt or spray there comes with it the risks of fire or irritation to sensitive individuals or pets. Please read the safety instructions carefully, and research your options if you are at all unsure. Where possible and safe to do so, we have used recycled or recyclable materials in our products, lowering the impact on the environment when crafting or shipping items.
