Candle FAQ
Our candles are made from natural, eco-friendly waxes, a blend of beeswax and vegetable wax. We avoid paraffin to ensure a clean, safe burn and to reduce environmental impact. Our wicks are made of high quality cotton.
To extend the life of your candle and enjoy a smooth, even burn, we recommend trimming the wick to about 1cm before each use. Allow the wax to melt fully across the surface on the first burn to prevent tunnelling.
We recommend keeping lit candles out of reach of pets and children and never leaving them unattended. Burn only on a flat heat resistant surface. Do not burn candles on or near anything that can catch fire.
Currently we use fragrance oils but we are in the process of switching to essential oils.
Burn time varies by candle size. Smaller candles, like tealights, burn for approximately 4-6 hours, while larger candles can last from 30-60 hours or more, depending on the type and size.
Black smoke can occur if the wick is too long or if the candle is in a draughty area. Make sure to trim the wick before each burn and place your candle away from open windows or fans for a clean, smoke-free experience.
Many of our candle containers are designed to be reusable! Once your candle has burned down, you can clean out the remaining wax and repurpose the container as a decorative item, storage jar, or planter.
We focus on natural, clean-burning ingredients, making our candles a gentle option for those sensitive to strong fragrances or chemicals. For those especially sensitive, we recommend our unscented candles.
