The More You Know

  • Candles

    • Because our coconut soy was is natural, it is common to notice rough tops, frosting or wet spots none of these things will hinder the performance of your candle or the fragrance.
    • Did you know wax has a memory?  It’s true, when you burn your candle that first time allowing it to burn to the edge of the jar creates a memory for the wax in your candle so that every future burn will burn to the edge and prevent tunneling.
    • If you notice a little wax hanging on your jar.  That’s OK.  As your candle burns this will melt.
    • Best Place to burn our 9 oz candles is office, bathroom, bedrooms. 2 oz mini tins are best for bathrooms and office.

  • Wax Melts

    How to remove wax from your melter:

    When the fragrance from your wax melt has faded you can clean out your wax melter in one of two ways.  First, turn off your wax melter.

    Option 1:  Solid Wax

    Once your melter is off, allow the wax to cool and solidify and you can break up or scrape out the wax in your dish. Once all of the wax is discarded, follow the instructions provided with your wax melter on how to clean it before using again.

    Option 2: Liquid Wax

    Once your melter is off and the wax is still in it’s liquid form, place a paper towel or cotton ball into the dish of wax and soak up all of the wax and discard. DO NOT pour wax down your sink or drain.  Once all of the wax is discarded, follow the instructions provided with your wax melter on how to clean it before using again.
