By inhaling essential oil molecules, which stimulate smell receptors in the nose, sending signals to the brain's limbic system (controlling emotions, memory) and triggering chemical responses that affect mood, stress, and physical well-being.
Trim the wick to ¼ inch before each burn, keep the candle away from drafts, and let the first burn create a full melt pool to the glass edge (this prevents tunneling). Limit sessions to 3–4 hours, then let the candle cool. These simple habits improve scent throw and longevity.
Beeswax is nature’s cleanest burning wax — free from toxins, paraffin, and synthetic fragrances. When lit, it naturally releases negative ions that help purify indoor air, reduce dust, and restore a gentle sense of clarity.
Even if the ion effect is modest, beeswax burns cleaner and longer than paraffin, releasing fewer irritants, making them a healthier option for many.
Use caution especially with cats and birds. Some essential oils can irritate pets; always burn in a well-ventilated room, keep candles out of reach, and avoid enclosed spaces with animals present. If your pet shows any unusual symptoms, extinguish and call your vet.
Treat candles like a small open flame: never leave unattended, place away from flammables/drafts, trim the wick, and limit each burn to ≤4 hours. Let cool 2 hours before relighting.
