All our candles are hand poured by a small business in Australia. Our products are not tested on animals, are free from Parabens, PEGS and contain no animal by-products and therefore vegan friendly.

Yes, our glass jars are 100% recyclable. Simply wipe out with a dry paper towel while the wax is still warm (or soak it in hot water) and then hand wash it as you would any glass, with soap and water.

Stop burning the candle when the wax lower than 1cm. For safety concerns, we do not recommend burning the candle all the way down to the bottom to get the very last scent from the remaining wax as the container may become too hot and the wicks may become unstable.

Wooden wicks require a bit of maintenance and patience. It may take up 3-5 seconds more to catch fire than the traditional cotton wicks. Sometimes when wicks are too long, they may not catch fire easily. Trim the wicks properly and have another 1-2 tries will solve the problem.

All our products are handmade, we try our hardest to match with every batch but sometimes this isn't possible, Not to worry....the colour does not affect the products in any way.
