Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, and I’m excited for it!
As a busy mama, I sometimes get so bogged down I feel like I’m neglecting my husband. I’m really looking forward to reconnecting with him and enjoying some natural beauty treats together.
What are your Valentine’s plans? Maybe you’re in a relationship and shopping for your significant other, or for both of you. Or perhaps you’re single and shopping just for yourself!
Either way, why not take a look at my top natural beauty gifts for lovers? I hope you enjoy them!
A scented candle to set the mood
Valentine’s night wouldn’t be the same without candles. I don’t use scented candles on a regular basis – read my opinions on scented candles. However, Christmas and Valentine’s day I make exceptions.
My favourite romantic candle is JOIK Sweet Temptation. This candle blends aromatic orange with delicious vanilla cream and caramel. Vanilla is absolutely the sexiest scent for me.
JOIK candles use renewable and biodegradable soybean wax and food-grade scents. This hand-poured candle has a 30 hour burn time.

The ultimate natural beauty gift for lovers! This massage candle is Mummy Loves Organics’ self-confessed “baby maker”. Blending lime, may chang and rosewood essential oils, this candle will help you unwind and create a romantic mood.
Just burn for 30 minutes, blow out, let cool for 2 minutes, then drizzle the warm oil over any body part that needs it most.

Natural perfume gift set
Smell gorgeous with your loved one, without any harmful chemicals. You can share these natural perfumes from Walden with your man, since they’re unisex. The perfumes use essential oils, natural absolutes, and resins to create natural fragrances that won’t disrupt your endocrine system. They’re ideal if you’re pregnant or a breastfeeding mama who doesn’t want any harmful substances passing through to the baby or your breast milk.
The gift box contains 5 different eau de parfums:
- A Different Drummer ~ spicy pepper, cedarwood and amber, finished with amyris sandalwood.
- A Little Star-Dust ~ ylang ylang, iris and and jasmine with hints of amyris and tonka bean.
- Castles in the Air ~ a fresh citrus with tropical flowers and lavender.
- Two Eternities ~ forest flowers, wild roses, jasmine, and iris over bergamot and sweet orange.
- The Solid Earth ~ petitgrain citrus freshness with a warm heart of vetiver and patchouli.
I have to say, I was totally surprised by these natural perfumes. They’re not as strong or long lasting as conventional perfumes, but they are surprisingly complex.
My favourite is A Little Star Dust. It’s just gorgeous!

Flushed, kissable lips
Even though I’m not vegetarian, the thought of using carmine in lipstick doesn’t really appeal to me. The Inika vegan range of lipsticks is completely cruelty-free.
This creamy matte lipstick is a lovely vintage rose shade, perfect for Valentine’s day or night. It contains organic shea butter and jojoba oil to keep your lips kissably soft.

Romantic rose hydrosol
I’m in love with Balm Balm Rose Hydrosol. It is so beautiful, romantic, and versatile! Rose is said to help calm anger and increase feelings of wellbeing. Not to mention benefiting your skin with its moisturising and antioxidant properties.
A hydrosol is simply a floral water you can use like a toner or even as a subtle perfume. It’s great for freshening up with – just spray on and feel the love.

Bedside rituals
Kiss The Moon will help you create a peaceful bedtime ritual to unwind after a long day. Maybe sleeping isn’t on your mind on Valentine’s night, but these products are so romantic – and will help you both to relax. The first of my picks is this Kiss The Moon Rose Ritual Bedside Set.
The set will keep your hands soft and well cared for with the deeply nourishing overnight hand cream. Use the aromatic pillow mist to spray your way to a romantic night ~ both contain rose, frankincense, and ylang ylang.

Sleep recovery
This sleep recovery set will help soften and repair your skin while you rest. The set contains 3 mini bottles of rose-infused night-time bath oil, 1 bottle of facial oil, plus a silk sleep mask infused with delicate anti-ageing rose and rosehip.
The bath oils contain moisturising coconut, jojoba, and white tea seed oils. The face oils contain apricot kernel, white tea seed, rosehip, and wheat germ oils. Both contain Kiss The Moon’s signature essential oil blend.
