Candle Care

What is the candle made of?

Our candles are made of a 100% natural soy-coconut wax blend with added fragrance and the scents are produced by a high-quality fragrance house

How do I burn my candles safely?

1. Never leave a burning candle unattended and make sure it is always in sight.
2. Do not light or burn candles on, or near anything that might be flammable i.e: near paper, fabric, bedding, etc.
3. Do not light or burn candles near any flammable liquids or gases, such as alcohol-based or petroleum-based fragrance, body care or other liquid products, or near any sources of natural gas or propane.
4. Keep lit candles away from open windows, vents, fans, or any drafts
5. Keep lit candles out of reach from any pets or children
6. Put out the flame if it becomes too high or repeatedly flickers. Before re-lighting, trim the wick and check for drafts.
7. If you’ve created a large wax pool during your burn, use a candle snuffer or blow it out gently to avoid splattering.

What are tips for candle care?

1. On your first burn, make sure your first light liquefies the entire top layer of wax otherwise you will be left with a memory ring. Having a memory ring will cause the wax to the tunnel and the candle will melt unevenly. 
2. After your first burn, trim the wick to about ⅛ inch in height. This will make the flame look clean and bright for a smooth burn. Untrimmed wicks are a lot more likely to take on a weird mushroom-esque shape that dulls the flame.
3. We recommend that you burn your Wakeheart candle for no more than four hours at a time because it will cause carbon to collect on the wick, leading it to “mushroom.” The wick will then become unstable and produce a dangerously large flame. 
4. Swap out your candle for a new one when about ½ inch of wax remains because the bottom of the candle could get dangerously hot and ruin the surface that it is on.

Do you test on animals?

• No we do not. Our candles are cruelty-free and vegan.

How do I get the crystal out of my Wakeheart candle?

• To get the crystal out of your Wakeheart candle, use a small spoon to scoop it out and then run under lukewarm water to clean. Be careful! The candle wax will still be hot.
• Please keep the crystals away from children and pets! They are colorful and attractive and could be accidentally swallowed by them.

Why are there air pockets in my Wakeheart candle?

• Our candles are made of vegan and natural ingredients so air-pockets are very likely to form. The same place you are seeing a “bubble” today might be gone tomorrow. What it actually is, is the wax slightly pulling away from the glass and the glass creates an optical illusion to make the space between the wax and glass look bigger than it is. When the room is warm the wax can expand right back against the glass and the “bubble” disappears. 

Can I return my candle?

• All Wakeheart Crystal Candles are considered FINAL SALE items and are not eligible for returns or exchange. Wakeheart reserves the right to refuse any returns at any time.

Are the crystals in the candles real?

• Yes! The crystals are ethically sourced, real, and natural.
• Please keep the crystals away from children and pets! They are colorful and attractive and could be accidentally swallowed by them.

How should I store my candle?

• To maintain the quality of your candle, make sure to store at room temperature.

What is the maximum burn time for each candle?

• The recommended burn time for each candle is no more than four hours to ensure quality of the burn. 
• Candles are 100% natural soy- coconut wax blend made for clean burning. 
• Scents are produced by a high-quality fragrance house 
• Crystals are ethically sourced, real, and natural.

When you pre-order an item, your payment will be processed up front. As soon as the product gets to our warehouse we ship it out to you ASAP. You will receive a shipment confirmation email with tracking once your items have shipped. We do our best to estimate when items are expected to ship and we post this information on each individual product page with an estimated time period. 

What does it mean when an order in on Backorder?

Products on backorder mean they are currently out of stock, but more are on the way! Place your order as soon as possible to make sure you get in on our items.
