Frequently Asked Questions

What makes your candles unique? Each candle is hand-crafted and poured in small batches using all-natural soy wax derived from 100% American grown soybeans. We use custom blended, phthalate-free fragrance oils and premium grade essential oils. Our cotton-core wicks are both lead and zinc-free, while our wooden wicks are sustainably sourced right here in the US. Our 12 oz candles have a custom reclaimed wood lid. The Salvaged Wick is proud to create candles that are both eco-friendly and cruelty-free. Leaving out all the harsh chemicals, creates more room for what matters most.

How do I make my candle wicks last longer? It is always recommended that wooden and cotton wicks are trimmed to ¼” length prior to lighting or once your candle has cooled to room temperature. On your first burn, allow the candle wax to melt all the way across for a smooth candle surface. We recommend letting your candle burn 2-4 hours every time to achieve a good melt pool, and help your candle last longer. Remember to burn your candles within sight and keep out of reach from children and pets.
