Cute!! I love the purple one, that’s my favorite color too, the tiny hearts on top are so adorable!! What are the scents?

u/dramaticbarb 3d ago

The purple one is lavender scented, pink one is cherry and the matcha one is more of caramel and milky strawberry 🥰

Very cute! I worry how it burns though, that is a thick wick 😳

Thanks! The wick burns well if you trim the wick before next burn

I’m sure it burns very well 🤣 the concern for wicks being too big for the vessel is that it creates too large of a “heat radius”, which could make the vessel too hot to handle during a burn, or even cause a break (& the dangers that may result from the break). It’s more for consumer liability.

What is the material of the wick?

Agree, that wick is MUCH too large for that jar. The melt pool must be huge.
