FAQ:

  1. What are your candles made of? Glorified By Society’s no fragrance added candles are made with coconut soy wax, and crackling wooden wicks. Glorified By Society's scented candles are made with coconut soy wax, crackling wooden wicks, and high quality, perfume-grade, phthalate-free, mutagen-free, and carcinogen-free fragrance oils. Just wax, wick, and scent with no other additives or dyes.
  2. How long do your candles last? That depends on a lot of different factors. The temperature of your house. How long you burn them for. Whether or not you trim your wick. As a general rule, our 9oz candles last approximately 55-60 hours. 14 oz candles burn for 75-80 hours, Again, this can vary.
  3. Why should I trim the wick and only burn your candles for 3-4 hours at a time? These are standard instructions and good practices for any candle, and are meant to prolong a candle’s burn time. Keeping the wick trimmed and burning 3-4 hours at a time slows everything down so you get more out of your purchase. Additionally, burning your candle for 3-4 hours at a time ensures that the wax melts all the way to the edge of the container. The melted wax (not the flame) is what gives off your candle’s scent. Burning your candle for a minimum of 2 hours will also prevent your candle from “tunneling”, or burning a hole down the center of the candle while leaving a ring of un-melted wax along the inside of the container.
  4. Where are you candles made? All of our candles are hand-poured and hand-packaged in our home workshop here in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Due to COVID protocols, our workshop is not open to the public.
  5. Do you have a store I can visit in-person? We are a very small start-up company who have only launched our business in the first quarter of 2022. In time we hope to grow our business and make our product more accessible with product placements in retail stores. 
  6. Where do you get your materials? We try to support local as much as possible. Our vessels are purchased from a small business in Windsor.
