Living Light Soy Travel Tin Review

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.

This was a new product to me and I really love the concept of a wee scented candle you can take away with you while travelling. It is attractively presented Compact no mess tin. I had the Revive scent in my NZ Brands Beauty Box and I just want to keep on sniffing it despite it having some citrus that I normally don't like! The scent is still strong weeks later after some use. The only downside is it is expensive for it's size.

I love scented products and use plug-ins, candles, and incense, all the time. I hadn’t tried a Living Light candle though, so was excited to see this one in the BBBE. It is Revive Come Alive Butterfly.

It comes in an awesome little tin. On opening it, there came a strong citrus smell which scented my bedroom over a few days. I love citrus so that made me happy.

The candle is easy to light and just sit somewhere in its tin. I chose to burn it in my lounge as I’m usually in there. It is a medium sized room.

I sit the tin inside its lid so it doesn’t get too hot on the bottom.

Sadly, the strong citrus scent isn’t so easily detectable once the candle is lit. There is still a scent, but it is quite subtle and smells more like generic-burning-candle than citrus.

I think if I were to repurchase, I would leave the open tin on my duchess where it was, and not light it, as the scent is stronger that way.

Weight for weight, I think I’ll stick with incense and cheaper candles, as they give a stronger smell for a longer period, for much less cost.

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.

I received the "Kitchen" candle in the NZ Brands beauty box, such a lovely surprise! I hadn't heard of Living Light beforehand.

First of all I love the packaging, it's different to your typical glass candle packaging and it's a decent size. The labelling is simple and adds a simple nice touch to your decor.

The scent is really good, when opening the lid you're hit with a lovely smell which is quite perfect for getting rid of unwanted smells in the kitchen which is what I have been using it for. While it is lit, it gives off the smell a little bit more & filled the room nicely...bearing in mind my kitchen is quite small.

I love using this candle for home use. To be honest, I wouldn't personally use this for travelling unless I knew I wasn't going to be lighting it a lot. The whole candle turns to liquid after being lit for about 10-20mins which 1: makes the tin a little hot to touch, and 2.I wouldnt trust that the liquid would not tip out of the tin. If you werent going to light it up much then it would be nice to travel with..just take the lid off and let the scent of the wax fill your room. Another little thing I found a little bit annoying...it takes longer to light second time around then even longer 3rd time around...the wick seems to turn into a black clump and doesnt light very easily.

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 received this as part of the NZ Brands Beauty Box. I have to admit I am not one for burning scented candles, I prefer incense.

The scent I received was Pohutukawa. Upon opening the cute little tin, with pink patterning, I could small the scent immediately. It is a sweet, subtle scent, and is not overpowering. It reminded me of pomegranate, which I like.

The candle burnt well, although the wick was a little short which made it a bit tricky to light. The flame was slow and steady, and there was plenty of candle left after an hour. The tin was warm, but certainly not too hot to handle while the candle was burning.

I've loved burning this candle, the packaging is so cute. It is a small candle in a cute tin. I have this in the scent pohutakawa, it smells very christmasy and spicy. I have this burning for a couple of hours at a time, as I find that is all I need for the scent to waft through our living area. I think it is a nice treat to use, but I am used to purchasing larger candles, which work out to be a bit more economical.

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 :)
