Candle Care

Love 8 Hate Apothecary intention candles are made with a luxurious vegan blend of soy & coconut wax and wooden wicks. Our wax is gluten free, toxin free, paraben free & phthalate free. Wooden wicks are organic, non-toxic and eco-friendly sourced from FSC-certified mills and made in USA.

Wooden wicks provide a comforting crackling ambience when lit. The wick should be at least 1/8’ for the wick to burn at the optimum level.  

Your wick must be trimmed before each burn. The wooden wick can be trimmed by either pinching the charred ends or using a wick trimmer. If your flame is larger than normal and starting to smoke or be excessively high, blow it out, cut it shorter and light again.

The first burn is the most important for the longevity of your intention candle. Make sure you allow the candle to burn long enough to reach a full melt pool to prevent tunneling.
