Candle Care & Ingredients
What We Use
At Coastal Living Co, we believe in transparency and quality. Every candle we create is made with carefully selected, natural ingredients designed to provide a beautiful, safe, and sustainable home fragrance experience.
Our Wax
All Natural Soy Wax
We use 100% all-natural soy wax in every candle. Our soy wax is made in Australia and is beautifully white in colour. Soy wax is:
•Renewable and biodegradable
•Made from soybean oil, not petroleum
•Burns cleaner and slower than paraffin wax
•Holds fragrance beautifully
•Better for your home environment
The natural soy wax we use is sourced responsibly and poured by hand in small batches to ensure the highest quality and consistency in every candle.
Our Fragrances
Australian-Made, Safe Fragrances
All of our fragrances are made in Australia and are formulated to be safe for you and your family. Our fragrance supplier specialises in premium, phthalate-free fragrance oils that are:
•Phthalate-Free: No harmful chemicals that can affect your health
•Paraben-Free: Free from preservatives that may cause concern
•High Quality: Premium fragrance oils that smell beautiful and last
•Responsibly Sourced: Ethically made with care
Our Wicks
100% Cotton Wicks
Every Coastal Living Co candle features a 100% cotton wick that is:
•Lead-free
•Carefully sized for each candle
•Burns cleanly and evenly
•Produces minimal soot
•Designed to prevent tunneling
Our cotton wicks ensure a beautiful, consistent burn every time you light your candle.
Our Jars
Reusable Glass Containers
Our candles come in beautiful, reusable glass jars that are:
•Perfect for holding your candle while it burns
•Ideal for repurposing after the candle is finished
•Durable and long-lasting
•Part of our commitment to sustainability
Once your candle has burned down, the jar can be cleaned refilled, used for storage, decoration, or as a votive holder for tea lights.
Why These Choices Matter
For Your Health: Natural soy wax and phthalate-free fragrances mean you're breathing in only the best. No harsh chemicals, no synthetic additives—just beautiful, safe fragrance.
For the Environment: Soy wax is renewable and biodegradable. Our cotton wicks produce minimal waste. Our reusable jars reduce packaging waste. Every choice we make is designed to be kinder to the planet.
For Quality: Hand-poured candles with premium Australian-made fragrances mean superior scent throw, longer burn times, and a more beautiful experience every time you light a candle.
Candle Care Tips
To get the most from your Coastal Living Co candle:
First Burn: Allow the wax to melt completely across the top surface on the first burn. This prevents tunneling and ensures an even burn for the life of the candle.
Wick Trimming: Trim the wick to approximately 5mm before each burn. This prevents excessive smoking and ensures a clean, even flame.
Burn Time: Burn your candle for 2-4 hours at a time. Avoid burning for more than 4 hours in one sitting.
Placement: Keep your candle away from drafts, heat sources, and flammable materials. Place on a heat-resistant surface.
Storage: Store your candle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the fragrance and wax quality.
