Living Light Soy Travel Tin Review

This was such a neat addition to the New Zealand BBBE.

I got the Green/Blue labeled tin in 'Kitchen' which the scent was Lemongrass. And what an amazing smell this is! Very citrus.

Can we talk about how cute the tin is?! Really it's not very practical as the tin does get hot after it has been burning for and hour or two. Keep out of reach of kids. But the tin is such a cool idea, I really love it. Screw top lid.

The candle itself when lit doesn't fill the room with the scent but for a small candle it does release a pleasant scent in the area the candle is. Once you blow it out though I find the fragrance to be stronger.

This candle turns to liquid after half an hour of burning so it's not ideal to take it to another room once lit. I have this candle in my bedroom but it really would make the perfect addition to the kitchen or bathroom :)

I've been burning it for 2 hours everyday for 4 days now and have over half the candle left. For $18 I think it's value for your money.

I have the pohutukawa scented tin candle by Living Light. When you open the tin, the unlit candle is very beautifully scented, quite strong - citrus, berries and spice make a very unique smell that is very pleasant. In fact I loved the scent so much I gave a set with a spray, diffuser and larger sized candle to a friend overseas who adored it. I only burn my candles for a couple of hours at a time and the candle is still half full after using it 5 or 6 times. The burning scent is subtle when you are in the same room as the candle, but if you go outside into fresh air and then go back in again you can definitely notice the lovely smell. I think the tin can be a tad dangerous as it can get warm while in use so place it on a heat proof surface and let it cool completely before handling after use. I like that it has a secure lid so it can be packed away easily and conveniently after use (when cooled). I think it is a tad on the pricey side for the soze that it is, great as a gift but to purchase for myself it would have to be a special treat.

A candle in the Best Beauty Box Ever was the icing on the cake for me... I have been longing to buy a Living Light soy candle and even better is the scent that arrived in my pack... Pohutukawa!! It is so beautifully soft and yet so familiar and inviting.

The small metal tin meant my candle was safe from bumps and knocks and the scent stayed fresh. The soft scent is hard to pinpoint exactly, it has a warm spice kind of hint to it but more like a subtle gingerbread, a sweet aroma with maybe a hint of lemon... or citrus of a kind. It's very beautiful and enticing.

I imagined the candle to be smaller (pleasantly surprised there) and it takes up the whole tin. It burns well and melts the wax evenly, part and parcel due to the heat absorption of the tin itself. I wouldn't sit this on any painted surfaces as the heat could damage it. I don't think I quite got 18hrs of burning but it would have been pretty close. I wish I could afford to justify buying these more often as they are simply divine

This little tin with the candle in is a real gem.It is a cute round tin and the one I received in my Beauty Box was a kitchen one with lemon grass, rosemary and bergamot scent. The tin is a silver tin with a screw top lid. This tin has lovely light aqua label with a dark aqua strip and white writing.Made in NZ and pure soy wax. The scent is lovely and gives 8 hours of burn time which is amazing for the size and having a lid is so practical when you want the candle to stop burning.It eliminates that horrible smell when the wick is snuffed out. The scent of this is really lovely and lightly permeates the room. I love it on before I go to bed as I find it relaxes me totally.

I received a Pohutukawa Living Light Soy Candle. This is one of the nicest smelling candles I have ever used. I am really into my soy candles and essential oils. This ticked all the boxes for me. It smells beautiful, it is made of natural ingredients, it doesn't release harmful chemicals while burning, it is made in NZ and it comes in lovely packaging.

I got the lavender candle as part of the Best Beauty Box ever and found it very handy for my kitchen. I love the size and the fragrance was nice and strong for me. I also loved how I can just put the lid on the candle to put it out instead of blowing out the candle.

I really liked this candle. The tins is cute and for someone who fears fire, putting it in a tin is smart. I feel confident putting it nearly anywhere and no risk of dripping wax. The smell is lovely - before lighting it the smell kind of reminded me of bananas - but in a pleasant way. The candle is easy to light, a good wick, not covered in wax - yah! the smell when lit is really nice too. I'm not a big candle user, but I am really enjoying lighting this while I do my makeup each morning.

i can see me using it in the bathroom when relaxing in a bath too. And the size of it and handy lid means that travelling with this baby is simple and safe.

I was so excited that the BBBE included in their NZ brand box. It smells gorgeous even when it is not lit but it smells even better when lit up. You just need to remove the lid and you can smell the beautiful aroma in the room. The scent just freshens the room and uplifts my mood.

The candle comes in a metal tin with a lid. I love the packaging! The scent is so gentle and lovely, not overpowering. I am very sensitive to different scents, there are some scents that can be too strong for me, can cause me having a headache.

The candle claims to last for 18 hours. It does last for ages and I am still burning it at night for a while before bed. The retail price for the small one is $18.00 is totally worth it. Nothing makes a home seem more romantic, cosy, or sophisticated than having beautiful scented soy candle.

Overall, it is a brilliant soy candle, I enjoy it so much! I would definitely repurchase and would recommend this to everyone.

Before I received this in our BRBB NZ brands, I never knew that this exsisted. So glad I know now! The scent I received is called Kitchen. It is a blend of Bergamot, lemongrass and rosemary. Such a fresh fragrance, fill my whole apartment.

The candle come in a gorgeous blue and white tin that fits with my decor. I sit the tin on a glass coaster and light it.

They say it will burn for 18 hours, I havent had it going for that long, but it seems that it will last that lenght of time. Good value for money.

These candles in a tin are available in a variety of different fragrances. I am keen to try more of these.

I love the packaging. I like that the size is small enough to take with you but big enough to burn for a decent amount of time. The lid means you can keep the candle nice while in transit, but also means if you leave it out you can prevent dust from getting on he candle. I took mine away with me on holiday and it added a beautiful scent to the hotel room, I hardly got though much of it while I was away due to the slow burning nature of the candle- such great value. I wouldn't say the scent is amazing, however I would highly recommend this candle for the travel purpose :)
