Lovely Scent!

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.

Light, too light

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.

Long lasting scented candle

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.

Travel light with Living Lights

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.

Pohutukawa Beauty.

I received this candle in the scent, Pohutakawa as part of the New Zealand beauty box. I had never heard of this New Zealand brand before so I enjoyed using it. The candle smelt amazing and was not to overpowering so would be suitable for everyday use. It is a reasonably small size candle for the price and I didn't get the 20hour burn time as stated however for a treat I would repurchase it.

Living Light Soy Travel Tin

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.

The nicest smelling candle

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.

Beautiful Candle

I loved receiving a candle in the NZ best beauty box ever, i didn't expect it so it was a great surprise! I am a huge fan of candles and they have to have a strong smell of which this one does. The smells goes all the way round my living room when i have it burning and its last a long time which is good, i wasn't sure how much burning time it would have. i reckon i still have a few hours out of it. Price wise, i think its a bit out of my range so a small candle but ill look out for it on special :)

Pohutukawa - NZ Goodness at it's best

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

Tips: $18 a candle for 18hrs burn time not sure if this is a good deal or not but it lays outside my expenditure range at the moment for the repurchase of it.
