  • Why is my product a different colour to the photos on this website?

    Our base products are generally clear/white however, due to the ingredients of some fragrance additives they can change the colour of the base.

    This is generally most noticeable in our reed diffusers with some of them appearing a yellow colour.

    We can assure you that these products, whilst a different colour are still held to the same high standards as all our other products and does not change the way the products act.

  • My product arrived with slight imperfections. Why is this?

    At M&M Luminous Haven, we pride ourselves on being able to say that each and every one of our products was hand made by our team.

    As such, some products will inherently have slight imperfections such as stickers not being 100% straight all of the time, wicks not having the exact same placement across the board etc..

    We can however, assure you that each of our products is made and filled by weight so the amount of product you receive will remain the same.

    If you believe that an imperfection in your product is disproportionate, please contact us via the form on this website and we will help where we can.

  • Can I return my order for a refund if I change my mind?

    In short, no.

    If you change your mind after placing an order or upon receiving your product please use the 'Enquiry' form on our website advising us of this and we may offer a store credit.

    See 'Terms and Conditions' for a full outline of our returns guidelines.

  • Why is my candle putting off black smoke?

    This is most likely caused by a wick that is too long.

    We recommend to trim the wick to approximately 1cm above the wax prior to burning your candle.

    Candles work by melting the wax surrounding the wick, this wax is then drawn up the wick and burnt. If the wick is too long, there is a disproportion to the heat vs fuel which can lead to excess black smoke. Trimming the wick can lead to a cleaner burn.

    Black smoke may also occur temporarily upon the first time lighting the candle. This should rectify itself quickly.

  • How long should I burn my candle for at a time?

    It is important to burn the candle for long enough to allow the wax to melt right to the edge of the container. This will prevent tunnelling and lead to a cleaner burn and less wax waste.

    This is particularly important on the first burn however, we recommend to allow this to occur on each burn.

    The safety of yourself, others and your property is of utmost importance. Never leave a candle burning unattended or while you sleep. Full safety details can be found on the warning label affixed to your candle.

  • Can I spray my bed/linen with a room spray?

    We recommend only using the room spray by spraying the mist into the air away from any delicate items.

    Avoid allowing the spray to come into contact with surfaces and fabrics that may be affected by moisture, essential oil or fragrance.

    Take care when handling. Avoid spills as it may permanently stain or damage upon prolonged contact.

  • Do you have a shop I can visit in person?

    No, whilst we are always looking to expand and improve our brand at this stage our store is wholly online.

  • I want to test an item for free before I commit to purchasing. How can I do this?

    Whilst we do not offer specific 'free test' items, if you wish to try a product or experience the scent before making a full purchase. Please contact us via the form on this website and we may be able to offer a small scale item in the scent you wish to try.

    If an agreement is able to be made, we may choose to provide this to you at a discounted rate.

  • Why is shipping a flat fee and not based on weight?

    Our shipping is set at a set rate. This is to ensure the best value for our customers. Having a set shipping amount allows us to keep our product costs low so we can ensure that our customers get the best value.
