Why Opt For A Surprise? Our thoughts..,
- Surprise Yourself: If you like surprises this is the option for you.
- Decision Fatique: Sometimes we all just struggle to make a descision. Life is full of decisions we have to make every day and sometimes that can feel a little overwhelming. If this feels familiar, then let us choose for you.
- Reduce Waste: In the spirit of transparency your decision to let us choose will sometimes help us manage our stock levels. We only make refills in small batches but sometimes a cancelled order, or us making too many candles, means we have extras. We hate waste and your choosing a curated suprise helps us manage our stock.
- Save Money: As a thank you for helping us reduce waste we offer a discount so you are also saving money.
We will send a random candle refill from our range. It may be aligned with a season, a mood or a place. Exciting isn't it?
- All Natural Ingredients
- Sustainably Made
- One Tree Planted With Every Refill
- Important Note. Please read this.
- Our hand made wax essence refills should only be used in our Vessels. They should not be burned like Pillar candles. The natrual vegetable waxes we use have much lower melting points than the petroleum based waes used in pillar candles. Each of our candle refills has been designed, made and tested to work only inside its recommended Vessel(s).
Refill Instructions
-
1: Clean your existing Vessel using warm water and soap.
2: Remove the old wick base that may still be stuck to the glass. Make sure your jar is completely dry.
3: Open the refill packaging and hold your candle refill by its wick.
4: Put the wax refill into your jar, and push the wax refill firmly into place. Straighten the wick if required and use as normal.
5: Minimise touching the wax with your bare skin as it may soften and melt on your hands. If this happens there is no cause for concern as your refill only contains natural vegetable waxes and essential oils. We recommend washing with soap and water.
6: On your first burn let the candle burn for at least 2-3 hours so that there is an even melt pool across the top of the whole candle.
7: Use a "snuffer" to extinguish. Do not blow.
FAQs
What type of wax do you use?
What type of wax do you use?
We use a blend of coconut and rapeseed wax. Here are our reasons.
🌱 Sustainability & Eco-credentials
- Renewable sources: Both coconut and rapeseed oils are plant-based, renewable crops.
- Lower environmental impact than soy in some regions; soy often involves deforestation, whereas rapeseed is widely grown in the UK and Europe.
- Biodegradable: No petroleum / parafin / mineral based wax.
- Vegan friendly: Absolutely no animal products. Bees love us.
🔥 Burning Qualities
- Clean burn: Produces little to no soot compared to petroleum based waxes.
- Slower, longer burn time than paraffin or soy blends, so our customers get more hours per candle.
- Even burn: Less tunnelling, better melt pool formation.
👃 Fragrance Performance
- Excellent scent throw (hot and cold): Coconut wax especially is known for holding and releasing fragrance oils well.
- Stable blend: Rapeseed helps balance the softness of coconut wax, giving a reliable consistency.
🇬🇧 Local Benefits
- Rapeseed is a common UK crop, so you're tapping into a local, sustainable supply chain.
- Blending with coconut (yes we know coconut is imported) still gives you the fragrance and performance benefits, but with a UK grown soy component the end product has a lower carbon footprint.
Why do you use essential oils and not fragrance oils?
Why do you use essential oils and not fragrance oils?
We choose to use essential oils rather than synthetic fragrance oils because they’re natural, plant-based, and kinder to both you and the environment.
Each one is carefully extracted from real botanicals, meaning you’re getting a scent that’s authentic and full of character.
Whether it’s calming lavender, uplifting citrus, or refreshing peppermint. Essential oils don’t rely on artificial chemicals or phthalates, so they offer a cleaner, more natural way to enjoy fragrance.
It’s our way of giving you products that feel like genuine, sustainable luxury rather than a synthetic imitation.
I’ve read fragrance oils can be better than essential oils. Is this true?
I’ve read fragrance oils can be better than essential oils. Is this true?
You’re right, fragrance oils do have some advantages. They’re really consistent, there are loads more scents to choose from, and they can sometimes give off a stronger throw in candles.
But for us, essential oils just feel more special. They’re natural, plant-based, and bring that extra layer of authenticity and wellbeing that synthetics can’t match.
We love that every oil has a story and a real connection to nature, and that’s what we want to share with you.
