Candle care
Always burn within sight, on a heat-safe surface away from drafts. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Burn for no more than 4 hours at a time and stop when 1cm of wax remains.
On the first burn, let the wax melt all the way to the edge of the jar (about 3–4 hours) so it doesn’t tunnel. Trim the wick to about 5mm before every burn for a cleaner flame.
What it’s made of
Wax: 100% soy wax — no paraffin. Fragrance: candle-grade fragrance oils used within IFRA guidelines, with no essential oils. Wick: cotton-based and lead-free.
Why no essential oils? Candles are a high-heat application, and many essential oils have low flash points and are hard to formulate consistently in wax — so we use candle-grade fragrance oils made for burning.
How does the custom profession candle work?
You tell us the profession and we personalise the "A Legendary [Profession] Has Retired" label — nurse, engineer, chef, teacher, anything.
Who is this candle for?
It's for any retiree in any career — from colleagues, teams or family who want the label to fit exactly.
What is it made of?
It's made from 100% natural soy wax with a lead-free cotton wick and phthalate-free fragrance oils, hand-poured in NSW, Australia.
How long does it burn?
Soy wax burns cleanly and slowly for a long-lasting scent; trim the wick to 5mm before each burn for the longest, most even burn.
Is it safe to burn around pets?
The fragrance oils are phthalate-free and contain no essential oils (verified by Safety Data Sheets), with a lead-free cotton wick — always burn in a ventilated space away from pets.
Can I personalise it?
Yes — enter your custom text on this page before adding to cart; we hand-finish each label in NSW.
How fast is shipping?
