Pure essential oils provide you with a clean, natural aroma that elicits a relaxation response as they contain natural elements that trigger the release of endorphins in the brain.
This in turn causes a positive emotional response which calms your nervous system and relaxes your senses to keep you in good health.
Fragrance scents are manufactured aromas, that is they have been chemically altered from their original plant extracts to create scents in the way perfume is created.
If you don’t suffer allergic reactions to synthetic fragrances then they are often the selected choice as these aromas will also trigger a positive emotional reaction.
Perhaps it’s an association to a happy memory of a place or of a loved one, such as smelling flowers in Grandma’s garden or enjoying the aroma of baking cookies on a relaxing weekend.
In both instances your emotions are uplifted by the recollection of a happy memory or association which achieves the outcome you are looking for.
If you’d like to know the oils included in each of our blends as well as the emotional benefits associated to each aroma please take a look at our scent guide here.
No the soy tea-lights are made with unscented pure soy wax.
Pure soy wax creates a melt pool when melted so must be contained in a holder. At this time we have them in a poly carbonate plastic but we are in the process of experimenting with alternative materials to find a more eco-friendly alternative.

Tunneling will occur when you have not left the flame of your candle burning long enough to create a melt pool that reaches the edge of the jar (this can take 3-4 hours).
If this occurs do not trim your wick but leave it longer to create a larger flame on your next burn to allow the wax pool to reach the edge of the jar.
Alternatively, molten wax is soft so when warm you can use a blunt object to push the wax edge in to the pool to melt it (also try a hair-dryer or tip the jar on it’s side towards the side of jar with the excess wax that requires melting. Keep moving the jar around to soften this wax and then push down in to the melt pool.)
After the next burn be sure to trim your wick to 8 to 10mm.
- by creating a moment for you, you avoid adrenal fatigue and feelings of overwhelm.
- a lower level of lighting calms your senses and prevents over stimulus
