Benefits of the Beeswax Travel Candle
Long, Consistent Burn

Natural Honey Fragrance
As it burns, the candle releases a gentle honey aroma that comes naturally from the beeswax itself. The fragrance is light and soothing, never overwhelming, making it perfect for creating a calming atmosphere wherever you go.
Eco-Friendly & Non-Toxic
Made from a renewable and biodegradable resource, our beeswax candles are a healthier alternative to paraffin, which is derived from petroleum. Free of synthetic dyes, fragrances, and harmful chemicals, the Travel Candle ensures a clean burn that’s safe for both you and the environment.
Handcrafted with Care

How to Use the Beeswax Travel Candle for Best Results
To enjoy the cleanest and longest burn from your Beeswax Travel Candle, follow these simple care tips:
Trim the Candle Wick
Before lighting, trim the wick to about 1/4 inch. This helps maintain a steady flame, reduces smoke, and ensures the candle burns efficiently.
Keep the Lid Handy
Your travel candle comes in a protective tin. Use the lid to safely cover and extinguish the flame when you’re finished. Always allow the wax to cool completely before replacing the lid.
Avoid Drafts
For steady light and even burning, place the candle in a draft-free area. Breezes from fans, vents, or windows can cause the flame to flicker and shorten burn time.

Let a Melt Pool Form
On the first burn, allow the wax to melt evenly across the surface. This prevents tunneling and ensures the candle burns evenly for its full 20 hours of use.

These are very cute, and I thought they would make great stocking stuffers for Christmas this year. I also bought larger candles. I read How to Winter this summer, and I decided to buy candles to help create "cozy" this winter, and I searched for ones that won't irritate me when they are burning. (not toxic)
Lovely candle! I like bees wax candles best!
