Our Story & Irish Roots
Wizard & Grace is more than just a candle brand—it's an invitation to rediscover a sense of magic, well-being, and balance in everyday life. Founded in October 2022 by Paula McGovern, we bring together the intuition of the “Wizard” and the elegance of “Grace” to create an Irish candle experience that nurtures body, mind, and soul. The name also carries a personal touch—Wizard is Paula’s beloved doodle dog, and Grace is her daughter’s middle name—signifying our deep belief in the harmony of nature, family, and self.

Our Philosophy: Well-Being Through Simplicity
At Wizard & Grace, our mission is to empower busy individuals to integrate simple, daily wellness practices into their routines. We believe that lighting a hand-poured essential oil candle can transform a moment of stress into an opportunity for mindfulness and rejuvenation. Each blend is thoughtfully designed to support a specific intention—such as Courage, Gratitude, or Peace—reflecting our commitment to holistic health and personal growth.

The Art of Natural Candle Making
Every one of our candles is hand-poured in Ireland using rapeseed & coconut wax, a sustainable, non-GMO alternative to soy and paraffin. This premium wax blend offers a clean, soot-free burn, ensuring that the therapeutic benefits of our pure essential oils come through without the harmful chemicals often found in conventional candles. Our high-grade essential oils—ranging from invigorating citrus notes to calming florals—are blended at carefully measured concentrations to provide authentic aromatherapy benefits.
-
Crafting a Sustainable Future
We are passionate about eco-conscious production. From sourcing raw materials within Ireland whenever possible to packaging each candle in compostable FSC paper boxes, Wizard & Grace aims to minimise our environmental footprint at every step. We avoid plastics in both our shipping and presentation, ensuring that our customers can enjoy luxury gifts without the guilt. By choosing our Irish-made essential oil candles, you’re also supporting local craftsmanship and a future built on responsible choices.

Inspired by Everyday Magic
For founder Paula, the journey began when she sought natural fragrance alternatives that wouldn’t trigger sensitivities or contribute to the cycle of greenwashing so prevalent in the market. Tapping into her background in journalism, charity communications, and part-time yoga teaching, Paula’s curiosity led her to blend specific essential oils for different moods—be it resilience, relaxation, or focus. Today, Wizard & Grace stands as a testament to the magic that occurs when aromatherapy, self-care, and sustainability come together in perfect harmony.

Embrace Well-Being with Wizard & Grace
By lighting a Wizard & Grace candle, you’re not just enhancing your space with a beautiful scent—you’re choosing to pause, breathe, and reflect. We invite you to explore our range of eight essential oil candles, each designed to support and elevate a particular aspect of your everyday wellbeing. Whether you’re seeking a moment of gratitude, an oasis of calm, or the courage to face life’s challenges, our candles are here to guide you.




Founder's Story
Paula, the creative force behind Wizard & Grace Well-being, brings a wealth of experience from her background in journalism and charity communications. While balancing demanding professional roles, she taught yoga part-time and embraced holistic wellness practices to maintain equilibrium in a fast-paced world.
Following the birth of her daughter, Paula developed sensitivities to synthetic fragrances and perfumes, which sparked her journey into natural scent creation. This personal health challenge led to extensive research into the art of natural fragrance formulation and the prevalence of greenwashing in consumer products.
Determined to create authentic, truly natural alternatives to mainstream scented products, Paula began handcrafting essential oil candles tailored to specific emotional needs—an empowering blend for challenging days requiring extra resilience and calming formulations for unwinding and relaxation. This personal solution evolved into Wizard & Grace Well-being, Ireland's premium aromatherapy candle brand.
