VALENTINE’S DAY

Our candles contain only the finest premium quality waxes: a specially-formulated blend of cosmetic-grade white beeswax, organic unrefined coconut wax, and extra virgin organic olive oil.

Our candles contain no paraffin (byproduct of petroleum), no polymers and no soy. 

All the fragrance oils we use in our candles are cosmetic-grade, fully certified, completely traceable and lab-tested.

Our candles DO NOT smoke NOR soot, and are safe to burn indoors, around children, pets and people with mild breathing problems. It took us over 98 tests to create the special formulation for our candles, and we did (and do) burn our candles in our own homes, around our own kids, and around our own pets. 

Burning a candle is easy. Luckily, so is following proper candle care and safety guidelines. Extend the life of your favorite candles, prevent unsightly soot and tunneling, and burn candles like a pro by following these simple tips:

Always trim the wick and check for debris.

All our candles come pre-trimmed. 

Before you light your candle again, always trim the wick to ¼ inch and remove any debris left in the wax pool such as wick trimmings or matches. Any debris will add more fuel to the candle than it’s designed to handle. 

Too much fuel can cause the flame to unexpectedly flare up or even start a small fire near the candle flame. 

Wicks that are left long or crooked can cause uneven burning, dripping, flaring and sooting. Trimming wicks will help prolong the life of your candle. Your candles will burn up to 25% longer if you trim the wick every 2-4 hours.

Get it right the first time.

Just like the first cut is the deepest, that first burn is the most important. Candles should burn one hour for every 1 inch in diameter of the actual candle size. For example, a candle that is 2 inches across should burn for 2 hours. If a candle is not burned for long enough to allow the wax to liquefy or to melt from edge to edge of the container, it will create a “memory ring.” Once a candle has a “memory ring,” it will continue to tunnel for the life of the candle.

Don’t keep candles burning for longer than 4 hours.

Burning a candle for too long will cause carbon to collect on the wick, leading it to “mushroom.” The wick will then become unstable and may produce a dangerously large flame. Plus, your candle may start to smoke and release soot due to the build up of carbon. 

We recommended that you do not burn any of our candles for longer than four hours, and allow them to cool for at least 1-2 hours before relighting.

Store your candles properly.

Store candles in a cool, dark and dry place with the lid on to keep them clean of dust and debris, and to help protect the wax and fragrance. 

Our candles have a life span of 12-16 months, depending on how you store them.
