Are South Scent jars reusable?

Yes! You can reuse your ceramic South Scent Jars. Once you burn the candle down to the bottom, you can add boiling water and wait for the water to cool, the left over wax will rise to the top for an easy clean.

How do I care for my candle and get the best burn?

Please make sure your wick is always trimmed, each time before relighting be sure to trim the charred top off the wooden wick for a clean burn.

Please allow the wax to pool to the edges before diffusing your candle, this will avoid tunneling as the wax has memory.

Please do not burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time and avoid lighting near any drafts.

If your wick will not stay lit, it is probably too short and drowning in the wax, please be sure to keep the wick at around 4mm, pour some wax out and try again.

Why has the surface of the wax dried bumpy?

If your candle has dried bumpy, do not worry! This is how you know that our wax is 100% natural soy, it won't effect the performance of your beautiful smelling candle.

Can I trust my candle is cruelty free?

Our wooden booster wicks are ethically sourced from FSC-certified mills.
