The little sparks that make December magical: How BIC lights up the holiday season

BIC is bringing the perfect spark to the holiday season 

It’s that time of year again, the lights are going up, and the festive spirit is in full swing. December in Naija comes alive with twinkling balconies, busy kitchens, the irresistible scent of barbecue chicken on every corner, and beautiful moments shared with the people who matter most.

These little moments are the true heartbeat of the season — and behind many of them is a simple, dependable spark. That’s where the BIC Flame For Life range comes in.

Thoughtfully designed to enhance everyday experiences, each lighter supports the moments that bring us together, helping you create memories that last long after the festivities fade. 

Soft rituals and cosy moments with BIC

December is beautiful — but let’s be honest, it can also be a lot. Long hours in traffic, endless to-do lists, last-minute plans, and one event rolling straight into another. In the middle of all that movement, the moments that matter most are the ones that help you slow down and reset.

That’s why small, intentional self-care rituals become essential this season. A calm morning before the day begins, the quiet comfort of lighting a candle in the evening, the grounding scent of incense after a thorough clean, or an intimate, candle-lit dinner shared with people you love — these moments shouldn’t feel like extra work. They should feel effortless, comforting, and grounding, allowing you to exhale and enjoy the season as it unfolds fully.

Spontaneous moments, sparked by the BIC EZ Reach Lighter

December gatherings have a way of happening unexpectedly. One person calls, then another drops by, and suddenly you’re cooking an owambe-sized pot of jollof rice like that was always the plan. The BIC EZ Reach Lighter is perfect for these moments. With its 1.45-inch wand to keep fingers safely away from the flame and up to 900 lights, the EZ Reach Lighter ensures your cosy moments stay effortless and soothing.  It also comes in handy for lighting deep jar candles, oil burners, mosquito coils on balcony nights, and festive centrepieces that need a gentle, controlled spark.
