Like all special things, candles require care. Following these instructions will allow you to make the most of your candle experience!
Candle care instructions:
Candle tunnelling happens when a candle burns down its center, leaving a ring of solid wax around the outer edges. This happens when the candle doesn't have enough time to fully melt to the sides, typically around 2 hours. The remaining wax prevents the candle from achieving its maximum burn time, and the wick becomes harder to light, eventually getting overwhelmed by the melting wax.
Fortunately, there are several measures you can take to promote an even and efficient burn, minimising leftover wax. One effective approach involves using aluminum foil:
Sustainability is at the core of what we do! Our candles use 100% natural soy wax (yay, no paraffin!), lead free cotton wicks and non-toxic fragrances which are phthalate and paraben free. Our packaging boxes and thank you cards are all plastic free, recyclable and biodegradable. The packing peanuts we use are plant-based, biodegradable and made of organic starch (they decompose in water within minutes!). On top of that, we donate 5% of profits to provide solar lights to developing countries. This is to help replace the use of kerosene lamps which are more harmful to the environment than carbon dioxide (you can read more about it here ).

In the event that an order is shipped with a missing or incorrect address, the customer will be responsible for the shipping fee + return fee. This fee covers the expenses incurred by our shipping partner for handling the returned package. If you decide that you no longer want the order, we can issue a store credit for the total amount, excluding the original shipping fee. It is important to note that, as a small business, we are unable to absorb these costs. We greatly appreciate your understanding in this matter.
If your order has not yet been shipped and you notice an issue with the address, please contact us immediately via email, and we will do our best to fix the situation before the order is dispatched!
Typically items are shipped with 2nd class delivery meaning it should arrive with 2-3 working days. If you need faster shipping (i.e. next day delivery) then you can select that as an option at checkout.
