Can I change or cancel my order?

As we aim for immediate dispatch (so you have your Artesano Candles ASAP!) We might not be able to change or cancel orders on time. If your order is incorrect you will need to wait to receive the order but can always conduct an exchange/return once it arrives here.

Of course! Once your order is dispatched you will receive an email letting you know your order is on it’s way. This email will have your tracking number and relevant information.

Can I change the address of my order?

This can be a tricky one! If your order hasn’t left yet our team can do what we can to make the changes. Otherwise you will need to organise for a redirection with the carrier who has your order.

Product & Care

Helpful tips: Candles (Dos)

  • Before lighting your candle, trim the wick to 3mm.
  • Place it on a heat-resistant tray. Light your candle in a well-ventilated space, away from draughts and flammable materials.
  • Burn for at least 1 hour to create a melt pool but for no longer than 3 hours at a time.
  • Before relighting your candle, trim your wick to 3mm and remove any wick debris.

Helpful tips: Candles (Don'ts)

  • Do not burn candles completely- discard when wax is 5mm from the base.
  • Never leave a burning candle unattended.
  • Keep out of reach of children and pets. Never touch or move a burning candle.
  • To safely extinguish the flame, use a candle snuffer to prevent hot wax from splattering.
  • Never throw water on a lit candle or candle fire.
  • When not in use, store your candle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and nearby heat sources to prevent discolouration.
