Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Carbon Clear Candle?

Carbon Clear is our initiative towards a low carbon dioxide emissions world. We have carefully formulated our candles with the finest natural ingredients including locally sourced beeswax which supports the wider eco-system. Additionally, we use eco-friendly wooden wicks for a clean and pure burn. We all need to play a part to save our planet and future generations from global warming and its systemic impacts on our surroundings. All our products and ingredients are locally sourced endorsed under our Australian owned & made license.

What wax do you use?

We use a custom blend of beeswax and soy wax - natural, sustainable, and non-toxic. You can expect an even, clean and long-lasting burn from our candles. 

Why buy a beeswax candle?

Our candle formula is a pure composition of beeswax and soy wax. There are many pre-blended waxes available to candle makers, and those manufacturers do not disclose their full formulas, other than stating what waxes are in the blend. This means there is potentially risk of those candles containing approximately (or more) 49% paraffin, palm wax, or coconut wax. 
We ONLY use natural beeswax + natural soy wax. Our wax is Australian made, fine quality and considered natural indicating it does not contain any other wax.

What kind of fragrance do you use in your candles?

Our mission is to create planet-friendly all the while bringing Sukoon to the environment and a prosperous future. Therefore, we use high-quality, “therapeutic essential oils” that are specifically made for mental clarity and stress relief. All other oil blends are free of phthalates, parabens, and petroleum and are compliant with Australian Consumer Law guidelines and are aligned with the IFRA standards.

*pn: our candles diffuse the surroundings with a bright flame, faint and clean toxic-free scent. 

message from our major fragrance oils manufacturer:

“All of our fragrance oils are composed of approved natural, naturally-derived, and specialty aroma ingredients. All of our fragrance materials have been studied by RIFM (Research Institute for Fragrance Materials) for safety, and IFRA (International Fragrance Association) and approved with a code of practice for use of the materials. This ensures that all the fragrances we sell are safe for consumers” 

What size candle do I need for my space?

Our candle jars come in two sizes. They work effectively on conference/dining/coffee tables, living/work/study spaces, kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms. Large rooms/spaces with high ceilings or open floor plans may need multiple candles for a more impactful permeation. You can have multiple candles of the same scent, or mix and match them for a unique blend.

How are your candles unique?

We are only using high quality and eco-friendly materials throughout the candle making lifecycle. This is costing us more than an average candle. Despite the delicate and costly nature of our candle making, we have priced them very reasonably so that they can be a part of every home/ living space. We are offering carbon neutrality, stress relief and clean burn at an affordable price making them exclusive and inclusive for everyone!

Why is there a crack on the surface of my candle?

Beeswax candles are the healthiest candle choice for your space. If you notice a crack around the middle of your candle top, it does not mean your candle is faulty — do not despair! This is not a flaw but rather a common feature of a beeswax candle. As beeswax shrinks when cooled, sometimes it will form a crack as wax pool hardens. Once candle is lit, the crack will fill in to an even surface.

Can your containers be reused?

Absolutely! When approximately 1/4 inch of wax left, stop using the candle. Use caution and care when removing the remaining wax, wicks and any labeling. We suggest to scrape out the wax and wick/wick stickers with a utensil (never put wax down the drain or garbage disposal). Let the container sit in hot soapy water until wax has softened. Now sponge wash, rinse and dry with dish towel/paper towel. 

*pn: we assume no liability for candle containers or subsequent results of reuse by the consumer, once purchased.
