Lilith - Premium Soy Candle by Sybs

the candle of halloween

lilith is known by cultures and religions throughout world history, often as the mother of demons, or the first woman demonised because she wouldn't submit. there are all sorts of things written about her, podcasts (some of which i've listened to) and she has always been so fascinating to me.

in astrology, lilith is known as the dark moon, and to put it bluntly, considered your inner bitch. lilith is the part of you that rises up and takes the wheel when someone fucks with you. your lilith astrological sign reveals how u defy convention and push back against fuckery.

some dear friends like to talk about the concept of your dark passenger, the ruthless self who just will not be fucked with, who might get you into trouble but it feels good doing so. to me, this feels synonymous with the idea of lilith. 

light lilith and release yr inner demon, let it take u over, even if just for a night.

Scent Profile

Lilith is made up of Tobacco Flower, Lemon Peel and Cedarwood.

Care Instructions

How to ensure you get the most out of your candle and ensure your own and other's safety:

• Ensure you light your candle on a heatproof surface and with no hazards such as curtains, plants or paper close by.
• It's also important to minimise the amount of breeze, particularly for the first burn.
• The first time you light your candle, ensure that you allow it to burn long enough to melt right to the edges of the candle jar. This prevents tunnelling and means that your candle will always melt to this point.
• Never leave your candle unattended, particularly around children and pets.
• Do not burn your candle for longer than four hours at a time.
• Ensure that you trim your wick to approximately 5mm in length before you light it, to prevent smoke and an overly large flame.

For wood wick candles only:

• When you first light your wood wick, you'll want to turn it on it's side and run the flame of a lighter (not a match) along the top of the wick to ensure an even catch.
• It's likely you will need to do this two-three times before it lights properly.
