Christmas fans are buzzing over Tesco’s new £8 festive candle, said to smell ‘just like’ Lush’s sought-after Snow Fairy candle. The Candlelight Candy Cane Light Up Candle has been causing quite a stir online after an impressed customer showcased the item on TikTok.
Content creator Libbie May Fitzpatrick (@libbiemayfitzpatrick) took to the platform with a glowing endorsement, stating: “I can confirm it smells just like the Snow Fairy one from Lush.” “It lights up as well so don’t miss out,” she added.
In her video, Libbie showcased the candle and the charming candy cane pattern, the Mirror reports. One thrilled viewer commented on the post: “Thanks for sharing going to treat myself next week.”

Another tagged a friend, suggesting: “You definitely need this for the collection.” Meanwhile, someone else eager to get the candle joked: “It is a crime I’m been shown this at 4.55pm on a Sunday.”
With an eight-hour burn time, the 70g candle is significantly smaller than the 425g Snow Fairy 4 Wick Candle, which retails at £36, but it promises to be a hit with Lush fans after a similar fragrance at a lower price. For those committed to the original Lush Snow Fairy products, taking advantage of the brand’s recycling policy could lead to substantial savings, such as when a shopper traded in her pots for a £45 Snow Fairy Jelly.
In addition to candles, the popular Lush Snow Fairy range is available in a range of products, with ASOS offering a Lush Snow Fairy Body Spray and Shower Gel set for £22 and a Bath and Shower Trio for £19.
For those seeking festive scents, Aldi provides an affordable range of candles including Confetti Glass Candles and Hotel Collection Ceramic Candles, both priced well under £10, among their new releases.
If you’re prepared to splurge a little more, there are XL Hotel Collection candles for £9.99, described as smelling ‘like a luxury spa’, and the £14.99 Hotel Collection Centrepiece Candle.
