Here's some tips for keeping candle soot free and safe: Adult use only, keep out of the reach of babies, small children and pets. Do not touch a hot candle or leave unattended. Trim the wick to 5mm in length before lighting. Burn for 2-4 hours at a time to allow the wax to melt evenly. Do not relight a candle that contains less than 7mm of wax. Then enjoy your soot free natural candle!
We try to keep our packaging as simple as possible. Each candle comes in a amber glass jar (all made in UK) with a black plastic screw lid. The candle trio box is made from eco card and diffusers come in eco brown cardboard packaging tubes. Both look fun and can be recycled.
Look into the our world of manufacturing, where the words ‘natural’ and ‘handmade’ come to life. Our London based 'Refiners' cook up a storm and experiment with fragrance in our HQ. Get a glimpse into our limited edition recipes, freshly dreamt up innovations and scent combinations.
