Ingredients & Candle Care

Our candles are made of a premium blend of coconut soy wax with 100% cotton core wicks. They are paraffin-free and contain perfume grade paraben-free and phthalate-free essential and fragrance oils. Our candles are hand-poured in the United States.

How do I care for my candle?

Trim the Wick: Before each use, trim the wick to 1/4 inch.

Burn Time: Allow the candle to burn for 2-4 hours at a time, or until the wax melts evenly across the surface. Do not burn for more than 4 hours at a time. Always follow the care instructions on the candle.

Safety First: Always burn candles on a heat-resistant surface, away from drafts, flammable materials, children, and pets. Never leave a burning candle unattended.

Extinguish Properly: Use a candle snuffer to extinguish the flame, or gently blow it out. Avoid using water, as this can cause the hot wax to splatter, or the candle lid.

Storage: Store candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

If you have any questions or need assistance with anything, please contact our
customer service team at hello@kinkette.com. We would be happy to assist you.

Why doesn't my candle smell strong immediately?

Patience is key. What you're interested in is called "hot throw", the release of scent from the candle while it is burning. Hot throw relies entirely on the melt pool: fragrance molecules are released from the liquid wax, not the flame itself. To get the best experience, we recommend burning your candle for at least 2 hours or until the melted wax reaches all the way to the edges of the vessel on the first burn. This technique will also prevent the candle from tunnelling.

Also take note of whether your candle is placed near a draft as this could prevent the scent from building.

How long do Kinkette candles burn?

Our 8.5 oz Signature candles burn for up to 50 hours. Our 3 oz Discovery candles burn for approximately 20 hours. To maximize burn time, always trim your wick to 1/4 inch before each use and allow a full melt pool to form on the first burn.

Are Kinkette candles safe to burn indoors?

Yes. All Kinkette candles are made with coconut soy wax and 100% cotton core wicks. They contain no paraffin and no lead. Our fragrance oils are perfume grade, paraben-free, and phthalate-free. Coconut soy wax burns cooler and cleaner than paraffin, producing significantly less soot. Always follow standard candle safety guidelines: burn on a heat-resistant surface, keep away from drafts and flammable materials, and never leave a burning candle unattended.
