Why Unadulterated Candles?
We want to make our mark in the candle industry. All our candles are made with 100% soy wax and FSC Certified wooden wicks. We not only have sustainability in mind, but also a sassy edge to your ordinary candle. Candles are hand poured in small batches in Los Angeles, CA.

Why wooden wicks?
Great question! There are many benefits of using a wooden wick.

  • More eco-friendly and clean burning compared to a traditional cotton wick.
  • Wooden wicks will heat your wax more evenly for an even, slow burn. This will extend the life of your candle and fragrance.
  • Wooden wicks give off a mild, but pleasant crackling sound, similar to a fireplace.

I'm having trouble with my candle staying lit. How do I fix it?

Wooden wicks burn a bit differently that traditional cotton wicks, and there are a few common issues that will cause them not to stay lit. Not to worry! Follow our troubleshooting guide here.

Can your containers be recycled?
While we don't offer a recycling program, our jars can be reused! 

  • It is recommended to stop using your candle once it reaches 1/2" of wax.
  • Pour boiling water into the vessel (caution: the jar will get very hot, use a cloth towel or heat resistant gloves).
  • Wait a few minutes, and the wax and wick will float to the top. Discard.
  • Wash the jar thoroughly.
  • Reuse as a vase, desk organizer...the sky is the limit!
