Our Story

 

 

Welcome to Tribal Unicorn Candle Bar, I’m Angelica, the 'Head Candle Freak' and Founder.

I started making candles from my kitchen table, as a hobby in 2017 and that hobby quickly grew into a beautiful obsession.

Tribal Unicorn is an ethically conscious, lifestyle brand based in London. We specialise in luxury fragrance, and home decor with a bold and beautiful aesthetic.

Our candles are hand-poured, hand-decorated and made with environmentally friendly, raw materials. We use the highest quality fragrance oils, essential oils and wax available.

A percentage of your purchase will be donated to one of our chosen charities.

 

About The Candles

Made by us, inspired by YOU!

The REAL London isn't just London Bridge and a Boozy Brunch, it's a beautiful mixture of people and culture.

Our products are made to complement your personality, empower individuality, celebrate culture, and encourage joy in our mental health and wellbeing routines.

Our candles will remind you of the pineapple and jerk vibes from Notting Hill Carnival to that candle-lit hip hop yoga class in Shoreditch. 

Our candles are:

Cleaner burning - no toxins, carcinogens, or pollutants which means it's less likely to trigger allergies. no petrol-carbon soot like you get from petroleum-based paraffin candles. 

Longer lasting - Soy, Coconut and Rapeseed wax burns cooler which means that you can enjoy your soy wax candle for generally 30-50% longer than a paraffin candle.

Biodegradable and water-soluble - Since our candles are made out of soybeans, rapeseed oil (from a plant belonging to the cabbage family) and coconut oil (harvested from organic coconuts). They are naturally biodegradable which makes accidental spills easier to clean. 

 

We also use biodegradable glitter which contains low levels of heavy metals. Antimony levels in Bio-glitter® are below the limits of detection, effectively zero. Whereas, cosmetic polyester glitter can have antimony levels as high as 150ppm. The antimony in polyester is a by-product of a catalyst used in the manufacture of polyester. We use ethically sourced Mica Powder on some products.

Mica a non-toxic mineral that gives off a shimmery and metallic-like appearance. It has high-quality pigment and they are also vegan friendly. We use soy, rapeseed, and coconut wax because it stimulates the economy by utilising a natural, renewable resource. Our wax is vegan-friendly and organic.

We only use high-quality scents and dyes. Our glitter mixtures are also 90% biodegradable. All of our wicks are cotton-based or specially made wood wicks. We have a 'no plastic' policy where possible, so any plastic you find in our packaging has been recycled.  

More about our Rapeseed and Coconut Wax Blend

This wax is blended in Europe and is made from rapeseed oil and coconut oil and nothing else. It is completely free from paraffin, soy, palm, beeswax and synthetic additives. Our plant-based wax is GMO-free.

You will find this beautiful wax in our candles and wax melts.
