About our candles
Before the first lighting, read the prayer to the patron saint aloud, then light the candle. On the first burn, leave the candle lit for 30 minutes to one hour, until the wax has become liquid across the entire surface — this prevents tunneling. Trim the wick to 3–5 mm between uses, and center the wick after each burn for even consumption.
Special Edition votives (3 oz, 2.5 oz pour) burn for approximately 18 hours. Standard Patron Saint and Sacred Heart candles burn longer — see each product page for specifics.

Essential oils, isolates, absolutes, and resins are blended at high concentrations for a sacred aromatherapeutic experience.
An Italian prayer coin honoring the patron saint is hand-embedded into every SAINT candle. It reveals itself only after the candle has burned all the way down — a small, lasting object of devotion. Keep it in your wallet, purse, or car as a constant reminder of faith and spiritual guidance.
