FAQs
What do you use to make your candles?
Our hand-poured scented coconut-soy candles are crafted from eco-friendly ingredients, natural coconut soy wax, FSC-approved wooden wicks and a quality blend of phthalate-free fragrance and essential oils.
Why Coconut Soy Wax?
Wax is a crucial component of our candles, so we strive to incorporate eco-friendly ingredients.
We found Coconut Soy Wax more environmentally conscious than traditional paraffin wax from our small business journey.
Here are some of the benefits of our Coconut-Soy Wax blend:
🕯 Helps to produce an even candle burn.
🕯 An outstanding scent throw, meaning your candle scent will effectively fill a room depending on the fragrance.
🕯 Clean-burn, meaning Coconut Soy Wax produces no harmful chemicals when lit up, unlike traditional waxes like Paraffin Wax, which can be unsustainable.
🕯 Our testing found that Coconut Soy Wax performs more consistently with natural wood wicks (provides a stronger, more reliable burn/flame)
Why do you use a wooden wicks in your candles?
1. Clean burn: Wooden wicks don't "mushroom" they provide minimal carbon, soot and debris build-up.
2. Long-lasting: Wooden wick candles burn slower than regular cotton wicks.
3. Wider fragrance throw: Wooden wicks diffuse heat more rapidly into the wax and can throw more fragrance into a room.
4. Crackling ambiance: Wooden wicks have a crackling sound when burning, which is more calming and create an appealing atmosphere.5. Modern aesthetic: Wooden wicks have a flat horizontal flame, giving your candle a contemporary feel.
6. Toxin free: Wooden wicks are not only eco-friendly and sustainable but are toxin and phthalate free.
7. Eco-friendly: Our wooden wick supplier uses wood sourced from FC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified mills.
