Candle Care
Why choose soy wax?
saide uses premium soy wax, a natural, eco-friendly alternative that is biodegradable and free from pesticides, herbicides, palm wax, and paraffin. It contains no genetically modified materials or unnatural additives, making it a cleaner and healthier choice for your home. Our wicks are also lead free using only 100% cotton wicks and natural wood wicks.
How long should I burn my candle?
For the best experience, burn your candle for up to 4 hours at a time or until an even pool of wax forms on the first burn. This helps prevent tunneling and ensures an even burn every time.
Should I trim my wick?
Yes! Trim your wick to 6mm before each burn. This ensures a clean, even burn and prevents excess smoke. A wick trimmer is recommended for best results.
Why is my candle producing black smoke?
This may occur if the wick is too long. Always trim your wick before lighting to avoid smoke and carbon buildup.
Why has my candle jar blackened?
If soot appears on the glass, allow your candle to cool before wiping it with a clean cloth or paper towel.
Can I repurpose my jars?
Absolutely! Our candle jars can be reused as planters, desk organizers, or storage for cotton buds and beauty tools. Our ceramic vessels make beautiful tea or coffee cups once cleaned.
How do I clean my jars?
Fill the jar with boiling water to loosen any remaining wax. Once cooled, remove the wax, then wash with hot, soapy water. Handwashing is recommended, especially for handmade ceramics. Do not place in the dishwasher.
Reed Diffuser Care
How often should I flip the reeds?
We recommend flipping the reeds once a week. However, if you'd like a stronger scent throw, you can flip them more frequently—2-3 times a week works beautifully.
Where should I place my diffuser?
Position your diffuser in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and heat sources. This will ensure optimal fragrance diffusion and longevity.
How long do reed diffusers last?
Our reed diffusers typically last 4-6 months, depending on room temperature and frequency of flipping the reeds.
Interior Fragrance Care
How should I use my interior fragrance mist?
Spritz your fragrance mist into the air or onto linens for an instant refresh. Avoid spraying directly onto delicate fabrics, and always test on a small area first.
Where should I store my fragrances?
Keep your candles, diffusers, and mists in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain their quality and scent potency.
How often should I use my interior fragrance mist?
Use as often as desired! A few spritzes will refresh your space, and reapply as needed for a continuous aromatic experience.
Eau de Parfum Care
How should I apply my perfume?
For the best scent experience, spray onto pulse points such as your wrists, neck, and behind your ears. Avoid rubbing your wrists together, as this can alter the fragrance composition.
How can I make my perfume last longer?
Apply your perfume to moisturized skin, as fragrance holds better on hydrated surfaces. Layering with an unscented lotion or oil can also help extend its longevity.
Where should I store my perfume?
To maintain the integrity of your fragrance, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Avoid keeping it in humid areas like bathrooms, as temperature fluctuations can affect the scent over time.
Can I travel with my perfume?
Yes! Our perfumes are available in both 50ml and 10ml travel-friendly sizes, perfect for on-the-go refreshes. Be sure to keep them securely closed when not in use.
Why does my fragrance smell different on my skin?
Fragrance interacts with your unique body chemistry, which can slightly alter how it develops. This is completely normal and makes the scent uniquely yours!
How long does perfume last on the skin?
The longevity of a fragrance depends on factors such as skin type, weather, and application. Typically, our Eau de Parfum lasts 6-8 hours, but reapplication may be needed for an all-day scent experience.
Is layering perfume recommended?
Yes! Layering your perfume with complementary body lotions or oils can enhance and prolong the scent. Try applying an unscented moisturizer before spritzing your perfume for better longevity.
Body Oil Care
How should I use my body oil?
Apply a few drops to clean, damp skin and gently massage in circular motions until fully absorbed. For best results, use after a shower or bath to lock in moisture.
Can I use body oil on my face?
Our natural body oil is designed for the body, but if you have dry or sensitive skin, you can apply a small amount to test how your skin reacts.
How often should I use my body oil?
Daily use is recommended for soft, nourished skin. You can also reapply throughout the day to areas needing extra hydration.
Can I layer body oil with other products?
Yes! Apply your body oil before or after lotion for deeper hydration or mix a few drops into your lotion for a lightweight, silky feel.
Where should I store my body oil?
Keep your oil in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat, to maintain its potency and freshness.
Is the body oil safe during pregnancy?
Our body oil is made with natural ingredients, but we recommend consulting your healthcare provider before use if pregnant or breastfeeding.
