FAQ

Are candles bad for you?

Not all candles are created equal. While most candles are harmless (as long as they don’t set your house on fire), one study found that burning paraffin wax candles may harm humans and the environment. 

Yet in 2007, the European Candle Association studied multiple wax types, including paraffin and beeswax, and determined that burning them is not harmful to people. To avoid the potential risk, seek out soy and coconut-wax candles.

How do you choose a candle?

Here are several important factors to consider when picking out the best candle for you.

• Scent. Consider the atmosphere you want to set in your home and the types of scents you’re typically drawn to. Scented candles fit into several categories, including fruity, floral, warm, earthy, gourmand, and citrus. Each corresponds to a mood — citrus and fruity scents are often described as energizing; warm and gourmand scents are known to be comforting. Identifying the mood and type of fragrance you like will help you choose.
• Burn time. If you’re trying out a scent for the first time, maybe select a smaller candle with a lower burn time. That way, you won’t waste a candle if you hate the scent when burning. Once you’ve found your ideal type, look for a long-lasting candle, so you don’t have to continually purchase new ones. 
• Materials. Candles are made from different materials. To avoid potential health risks, avoid paraffin. Soy and coconut-wax candles are great for those that wish to avoid using animal by-products. 
• Brand. Look for candle brands that use clean ingredients and offer reusable jars and tins. 
• Price. Some luxury candle brands have more ethical manufacturing policies and create more well-rounded, complex scents that last longer. There are also amazing candles at an affordable price — we recommend reading reviews and checking out brand website details to ensure you get something worth buying. 

How can I safely burn a candle?

Here are a few tips for safe candle burning. 

• Avoid placing anything flammable near the flame, like curtains or papers.
• Extinguish the candle entirely before leaving home. 
• Keep it out of small childrens’ reach. 
• Wait to move the candle after extinguishing it, as the hot melted wax could burn you or damage your things.
