Candle Care
This is the most important burn.
Allow the top layer of the wax to melt evenly to the edge of the vessel to prevent your candle
from tunnelling. This promotes even burning and maximize the scent throw.
(Avoid burning your candle for more than 3-4 hours at a time).
Always trim your wick before each burn to ensure a beautiful, clean surface.
After each burn, remove all charred wood from the previous burn by pinching the wick
between your thumb and index finger.
(Trim your wick to +-4mm for optimum burn)
Store your candle in a cool, dry space in an upright position. Use the lid to cover your candle between uses. This prolongs the fragrance and ensures for a clean, dust-free burn. Never leave a burning candle unatended.
(Trim your wick to +-4mm for optimum burn).
Soy wax or Paraffin wax?
The choice between soy wax and paraffin wax depends on personal preferences and environmental
considerations, with soy wax being favoured for its renewable nature and cleaner-burning properties.
Source –
Soy wax is derived from soybean oil, a renewable resource, while paraffin wax is a by-product of crude oil refining.
Sustainability –
Soy wax is considered more environmentally friendly and biodegradable,
whereas paraffin wax is derived from fossil fuels and non-renewable.
Burning Properties –
Soy wax burns more cleanly, emiting fewer toxins and less soot compared to paraffin wax.
Longevity –
Soy wax candles have a longer burn time due to their lower melting point,
resulting in a slower and more even burn compared to paraffin wax candles.
Fragrance –
Soy wax holds and releases fragrance oils effectively, often creating a more natural and appealing scent compared to paraffin wax.
Scented or Unscented?
We appreciate the subtle nature of our candles, allowing them to be enjoyed every day, without overwhelming
the senses. Our natural soy candles may not have the same intense scent throw as paraffin candles.
We also offer an unscented candle option. Please contact us at info@vlambojant.com.
How to choose a candle size?
Our Medium candles can infuse a room beautifully, creating a delightful atmosphere. For larger rooms, however,
we recommend our Large or Oval candle, or the combination of two medium-sized candles, to ensure scent distribution.
The Small candles are perfect for enhancing smaller spaces such as desks, cozy corners, or bathrooms.
Kindly note that the scent throw of our candles may be affected by the presence of open windows
and the circulation of drafts and breezes within the room.
It’s important to note that since we use natural soy wax, the scent throw of our candles
may differ from those made with paraffin wax.
We take pride in the gentle and enjoyable aroma of our candles, designed for everyday use without overwhelming the senses.
How to reuse my candle vessel?
To reuse your candle vessel, follow these steps:
Place the candle vessel in the freezer for a few hours to harden the soy wax.
Once hardened, gently pry the wax away from the vessel using a butter knife or similar tool. The wax should come off in chunks or break into pieces.
Use the knife or a spatula to scrape off any remaining waxy residue from the jar, being cautious not to damage it.
Fill a sink or basin with hot water (not boiling) and submerge the vessel. Let it sit for a few minutes to melt any leftover wax, facilitating easier cleaning.
Remove the vessel from the hot water and wash it thoroughly with warm soapy water to eliminate any wax or residue. Rinse the vessel well and ensure it is completely dry before reusing.
Following these steps will enable you to successfully remove soy wax from the candle vessel, allowing you to reuse it for other purposes or refill it with new wax for future candles.
