Everything you need to know about candles

What does 'throw' mean?

Throw is how strongly a candle projects its scent while burning. Cold throw = unlit; hot throw = burning. Strong throw fills a large room.

Soy vs beeswax — what's the difference?

Beeswax is natural, slower-burning, and produces almost no soot. Soy wax burns faster and may contain chemical processing residues.

Why does my candle tunnel?

Wax has memory. On the first burn, let the full top surface liquefy (2–4 hrs minimum) to prevent tunneling on all future burns.

How long per burn session?

2–4 hours is ideal. Beyond 4 hours the wick mushrooms and the jar can overheat.

What makes a candle clean?

Natural wax, a cotton wick with no metal core, and fragrance oils that are phthalate-free and non-toxic.

Are your candles safe around pets?

Our fragrances are non-toxic. Eucalyptus and tea tree scents can irritate cats — check scent notes if your pet is sensitive.
