FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Materials
A blend of soy wax and beeswax, with a cotton wick. No paraffin. No added fragrance.
Paraffin is derived from crude oil. It was developed for industrial purposes, not for the spaces you live in. We chose differently. Soy wax burns slower and cleaner. The air stays as it was.
Fragrance is added to fill a room with something it did not have. We work with what a space already holds. LLIOR candles carry no scent, only light and warmth.
Yes. Because LLIOR candles contain no added fragrance and no paraffin, they produce a cleaner burn than most candles. As with any open flame, keep candles out of reach of children and animals, and never leave a burning candle unattended.
CARING FOR YOUR CANDLE
Trim the wick to approximately 5mm before each burn. For the first burn, allow the candle to burn until the entire surface has melted. This prevents tunnelling. Never burn for more than three hours at a time.
Burn times vary by form. Taper candles burn for approximately 8 to 10 hours each. The Signature pillar candle burns for approximately 60 hours. Formed candles vary by size, typically between 15 and 25 hours depending on the piece.
Yes. This is called blooming, a natural characteristic of beeswax as it reacts to temperature changes. It does not affect the burn. It is simply the material doing what natural materials do.
Avoid burning near open windows or air currents. Uneven airflow causes uneven burning and increases drip. Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface.
