Lalela Wellbeing

Some of the best memories are made far from the noise, deep in the heart of nature. Retreat is inspired by those family trips to hidden river spots, where crystal clear waters flow over smooth stones and the air is filled with the scent of wild herbs and citrus. The crisp notes of lemon verbena, orange, and grapefruit blend with the earthy freshness of thyme and eucalyptus, recreating the feeling of diving into cool waters and letting all worries drift away.

HOW TO USE

Trim wicks to 6mm with each burn. Place candle on a heat resistant surface or candle tray. Allow wax to melt to the candle’s edge every burn to prevent tunneling. Keep candles away from drafts to ensure a smokeless, clean burn. Discontinue burning a candle when less than 1/4 of wax remains.

FAQs

  • Our candles are all the same size- 30CL, 220g with an average of 45-55 hour burn time.

  • Each MelloBox includes 1 full-sized luxury candle (¬45-55 hour burn time), a reusable velvet pouch, our Mello gift box, a surprise wellness item, and a brochure detailing the story behind your candle maker and scent!

  • When you sign up with Mellobox you can opt to take our scent quiz which will help guide which type of MelloBox to purchase. Every month we offer scents that fall within the 4 main fragrance families: floral, fresh, woody & amber/oriental. We will match you based on the preference you select when you buy MelloBox, while supplies lasts.

  • We do offer 30-day returns, however we will only refund unused candles. In this case, we recommend that you smell your candle before lighting it to confirm you're happy with the smell. Please see our refund policy for full details.

  • Because we work with small-batch makers, some scent options may sell out quickly. If your match isn't available you'll still be able to choose from the remaining in-stock options! Or send us a message at contact@mellobox.co and we can help recommend a scent for you based on the ones available for that month!

  • It is partially! We significantly subsidise shipping costs (candles are heavy!) so that we can offer a flat UK shipping rate of only £1.85 per box within 2-4 days, tracked.

  • We partner with candle artisans who use 100% natural plant-based waxes and IFRA-approved fragrances & essential oils to make their candles. All our suppliers follow UK CLP regulations to ensure safe use at home. In addition, we target brands who retail at a price higher than our boxes so that you're getting a deal whenever you purchase a MelloBox! See our processfor more details!
