100% BEESWAX CANDLE BENEFITS & INFO.
Our candles are made from 100% beeswax, which is packed with health benefits such as being antibacterial antifungal, non-toxic, and naturally aromatic. They are free from toxic chemicals and other waxes, and burn cleanly. Studies show that beeswax candles can improve air quality, aid in natural air purification, enhance the immune system, and provide relief from allergies and hay fever.

BEESWAX CANDLES BURN DIFFERENTLY
For optimal burning, we recommend lighting the 100% beeswax candle until the wax pools to the edge of the jar or candle, which may take a few hours. Avoid burning the candle for short periods of time, as this can cause tunnelling. Beeswax is a hard wax that burns slowly and longer than other waxes, which is why it's important to allow it to burn for a sufficient amount of time during the first burn.
To ensure a larger flame, trim the wick to about 5mm before lighting the candle. This removes carbon from the end of the wick and helps the wax burn all the way to the edge of the jar, preventing tunnelling. To extinguish the flame, push it into the melt pool with a metal object like a spoon, then pull the wick out. This smothers the flame and coats the wick in beeswax, resulting in no smoke and a better burn.
