What safety precautions should I take when using my Julie Candle?
  • Please ensure you never leave a lit candle unattended, or in reach of children or pets.

  • To protect surfaces, always place candles on a flat heat-proof coater or mat. Our art candles will need to be placed on a heat-proof tray or dish to ensure the wax does not damage anything it is on.

  • We recommend that you don’t leave your candle burning for longer than 4 hours.

  • Lighting a jar candle with less then 1cm of wax can cause the jar to overheat, so please avoid this with our crystalized jar candles.
What is the best way to prolong the life of my candle?

On your first use of our crystalized jar candles, we recommend you burn the candle long enough to allow the melted wax pool to reach the outer edges of the jars before putting the candle out. This will prevent the wax from "tunneling" and allow your candle to burn evenly. For our 14oz jar candles, this will be approx. 3hrs- max 4 hrs. You don’t have to let a full wax pool form every time, even if you do it every now and again it helps to reset the wax memory and prevent tunneling. This is a great way to keep your candle burning evenly, smelly gorgeous and looking great! Check out our candle care kit for everything you need to look after your Julie Candles.

Why do you use soy wax?

There are many great benefits to soy wax over paraffin or other alternatives.

  • Clean, non- toxic burning: Soy wax is made from soybean oils, a natural, non-toxic material, making it safe for your skin and respiratory system, as it doesn’t release toxins, carcinogens or pollutants.

  • Better for the environment: Soybeans are a renewable source, unlike paraffin wax, which is refined from crude oil. Allowing you to enjoy your candle without having a negative impact on the environment.

  • Slower burn time: Soy wax burns on average 40-50% slower than paraffin wax, giving you not only better value for money but also meaning you luxury Julie Candles will last even longer.

  • Smells great: We particularly love the way our soy wax candles smell when combined with our essential oils.
