Light Provisions Taper Candles

Yes. While they do not contain added fragrances or dyes, they emit a very subtle, natural honey aroma inherent to pure beeswax. It is faint and generally does not compete with other scents in a room.

Bloom is a natural, whitish film that develops on pure beeswax over time as it ages. It is a sign of authenticity and high quality, not a defect. You can easily buff it away with a soft cloth if you prefer a polished, shiny look.

Because each candle is hand-dipped, there may be slight variations in diameter. If a candle feels too snug for your holder, you can gently shave the base with a knife or warm the bottom slightly to mold it for a secure fit.

Beeswax is a natural, renewable material that burns cleaner and longer than paraffin. It also has a higher melting point, which generally results in a slower, more consistent burn with less dripping compared to other wax types.

While beeswax is generally less prone to dripping than paraffin, any taper candle can drip if exposed to drafts or if the wick is not trimmed properly. Keep the wick trimmed to a quarter-inch and avoid placing them in high-airflow areas to minimize mess.
