Paracoco is a proprietary bled that uses both Paraffin and Coconut wax. The combination of these two waxes gives you the rich smooth texture of Coconut wax and the ability to have a better cold and hot throw from the Paraffin wax.

Coconut wax is exactly what it sounds like, wax derived from the fruit of the coconut. The coconut is a sustainable and renewable crop. It burns slower and cleaner then soy, and helps with both the hot and cold throw of the fragrance.

Our candles are scented with a blend of synthetic and essential oils specifically designed for candles. Essential oils burn at a lower temperature and once exposed to a flame reduces the throw of the scent. Our candles contain no phthalates. We use scents that have been tested safe by the IFRA (International Fragrance Association)

The 7.5oz candles will burn between 40-50 hours The 14.5oz candles will burn between 60-70 hours

There are a few basic candle tips to get the best candle burning experience. 1. Always trim your wicks! This is a crucial step in the care and longevity of a candle. A good measurement is approximately 1/8 inch. This length with help with a cleaner, brighter burn. It will also avoid smokey vessel walls as well. Trim before each use and never trim the wick while the candle is lit. Always wait to trim the wick when the wax has solidified and cooled. 2. Try to create a 'memory pool' the first time you light your candle. After you trim your wick burn your candle approximately 1 hour for every inch in diameter of your jar/vessel. For example JAC Candles are about 3 inches in diameter so you would burn the candle 3 hours the first time so the wax melts to the edge of the vessel. Every time you relight your candle the wax should melt out to the edge. Not burning it long enough the first time could cause a 'tunneling' effect for the life of the candle. 3. Be safe. Always burn your candle on a heat resistant surface. Keep it out of drafty areas, as well as out of reach of childern and pets. NEVER leave the candle unattended while lit.

That's a candle term for patches in the candle that look 'wet' that aren't really wet. The spots occur with shrinkage of the wax from the change in temperature in or around the candle. This is a very common occurrence where the wax pulls away from the glass or container. This happens in very well know brand name candles and high end lines as well. It in no way afffects the burnability of the candle.

We know it's hard to smell the strength and fragrance of the candle through the computer, but we hope to give you the best description possible along with customer reviews. JAC candles have both a cold and hot throw, which means you will smell the fragrance when it is unlit (cold throw) and lit (hot throw). Our 7.5oz candles are the perfect size to fill a small to medium size room and be just right. Our 14.5oz candles fill medium to large rooms.
