holy smoke candle
smoke + skin + rooted
Smells like hushed hellos while you unroll your mat on the wooden floor. Like Thursday nights reserved for your practice. Like a recurring thought that doesn’t make it to the end of class.

What it's made of
The complexity of our scents comes from natural essential oils and dreamy fragrance molecules swirled in a creamy plant-based wax. Olive wax was an easy choice - not just for its audacious scent throw - but because it is the most sustainable of them all (i.e. it is the wax with the lowest carbon footprint currently available on the market).
Each and every one of our products is vegan & free from paraffin, phthalates, parabens and bad juju.
Ethics & sustainability
Every single product is made and packaged by hand in our South London studio (my kitchen) and we work in small batches to keep waste at a minimum. We make every effort to keep our supply chain as close to home as possible and to work with partners who share our values.
Our candle tins and spray bottles are made out of tinplate, an infinitely recyclable material.
The labels we use for all our products are not just a lush visual and tactile experience, they’re made out of sugarcane byproduct and - we’ve checked - printed using vegan inks and glue.
Llum Studios is a vegan and cruelty-free brand.
Candle care
First thing’s first, trim your candle wick to approx a quarter of an inch before every burn (we trim it for you the first time, but just in case!).
On the first burn, allow the melt pool to reach the sides of the vessel - this is important because wax has memory and this helps prevent tunneling down the line. This could take a couple of hours!
Make sure you light the candle on a heat safe surface, away from drafts or fans; this could result in uneven burning, sooting, etc.
When you’ve had enough (as if!), extinguish the candle by either placing the lid back on or with a candle snuffer - this prevents smoke and allows the true scent of the candle to linger in the air for longer.
Stop burning the candle when there is less than 4-5mm of wax left.
