Loobylou
MORE THAN THIS
Details
One of two candles in the Leukaemia Foundation Fundraising Collection, I AM & MORE THAN THIS are inspired by the scents that helped to raise the spirits of Loobylou Candles creator, Kere Baker while she was fighting Stage 4 Angio-immunoblastic T-Cell Lymphoma.
Kere created these candles to lift the spirits of others walking this journey. As a reminder that there are others out there who have fought, or are still fighting. It is a physical prompt to remind you that YOU ARE ... & that you are so much MORE THAN THIS.
MORE THAN THIS is a relaxing combination of ginger, cucumber, aloe, agave, mint, lemon, mimosa & cedar.

The Specs
Materials: Soy wax, glass jar with wooden lid.
Scents: Ginger, cucumber, aloe, agave, mint, lemon, mimosa & cedar.
Burn time: 80 Hours.
Burn tips: To get the most out of your candle make sure to burn it for 1-3 hours at a time & trim the wick to 5mm before lighting.
When you first burn your Loobylou candle, make sure to burn it until the wax pool reaches the edge of the glass. This will ensure your candle always burns even & you get the most from your candle, avoiding the wax forming into a tunnel in the centre.
Always trim your wick before you light your Loobylou candle. This ensures the wick doesn’t ‘mushroom’ & smoke.
Discontinue burning when you have 1cm or less in your Loobylou candle.
Always burn your Loobylou candle on a heat resistant surface.
Do not leave your Loobylou candle unattended.
Do not burn your Loobylou candle for more than 3 hours at a time.
If you are burning more than one candle in the same room, ensure you leave at least 10cm between both burning candles.
If your Loobylou Candle glass has formed soot around the edge (because you haven’t been trimming the wick), use a damp paper towel to gently wipe it off & your candle container will look as good as new.
