To make our lives more stressful, because you know… advertising clearly isn’t stressful enough — a strategist, a designer and a creative (moi) decided to start a wellness brand to help people who aren’t into wellness to chill out. Rest in peace if you will. Safe to say, nothing about running a brand on a side is particularly chill.

It started with candles made at home, using an old furnace and a lot of patience, resulting in my flat smelling permanently like the perfume aisle of an airport.

Fast-forward a year and we’ve expanded into bath salts, sleep sprays, incense and sauna oils. We’re now stocked in shops like AttaGirl on Brick Lane. And about to launch a sauna partnership.

While you’re here, why not buy a candle? ;) Or at least check us out: Instagram // ripwellness.co.uk
