Our candles

Nos bougies

Our collection of candles is handcrafted by our team in our workshop/boutique in Le Touquet.
They contain European soy wax and coconut oil, their burning time is approximately 45 hours.

Find here the best practices to adopt for your safety and for the maintenance of your candle :

When using for the first time: the wax melt should be uniform over its entire surface. If you want to maximize the life of your candle, let it burn for a few hours until the surface of your scented candle is liquid. The top layer of wax should be perfectly uniform. This will prevent a small crater from forming around the wick and dripping onto the edges of the container.

  • Never leave a burning candle unattended.
  • Do not place your candle directly on a table or on an unprotected piece of furniture, use a suitable support to safely enjoy your candle
  • Keep out of reach of children and animals
  • Keep the candle away from any combustible and/or flammable source (curtains, tablecloths, net curtains, furniture, etc.)
  • Do not burn the candle for more than 2 consecutive hours.
  • Make sure the candle is on a flat surface when burning.
  • Do not move a lit candle, or when the wax is still liquid.
  • Never leave match pieces or wicks on a burning candle.
  • Trim the wick regularly so that it does not exceed 5mm in height.

It is essential to shorten the wick by about 0.5 cm to 1 cm from the surface. Indeed, a wick that is too long results in a higher flame and faster consumption of the wax. As a result, your candle emits black smoke that can be harmful to your health. Black carbon deposits are found at the end of the wick and are deposited in the liquid wax, which results in the alteration of the quality of diffusion of the scents .

  • Do not let a candle burn completely: extinguish it when there is about 2 cm of wax left (even if it is annoying to think that your candle is finished when there is still wax left)
  • Never place a candle near a heat source.
  • Always remove flammable packaging and decorative elements before lighting: lid, packaging
  • Respect the use for which the product is intended

All our candles can be found on our eshop and in our stores in Le Touquet and Lille .
