P.F. Candle Co Lavender Terra Soy Candle

Soy wax candles are made from environmentally friendly, renewable materials, whereas classic paraffin wax is made from non-renewable, oil-based materials. Soy wax candles burn slower than paraffin wax, meaning you get a candle that can be enjoyed for longer. While all candles emit some black soot while burning, candles made from soy wax burn cleaner and results in less soot.

Once the candle has finished being burnt, simply wash out any residue wax and reuse it in your home. The terracotta is designed to be porous so it will make a happy home for a houseplant, or alternatively use it as a pencil pot or something else creative!

The below are our top tips of getting the best out of your candle:

1) Trim that wick. Before lighting, trim your candle wick to 1/4 inch.

2) Make each burn count. Allow the wax to melt to the edges of the jar during each burn to prevent pooling.

3) Most importantly, do not leave a flame unattended and never burn a candle on or near anything that might catch fire. We don’t recommend burning a candle for more than 4 hours at any one time.

4) Stop burning your candle when only 1/4 inch of wax remains at the bottom of the pot.
