Honestly, these aren't so much for burning, per se. We know this feels kind of silly as they're CANDLES, but they tend to have short burn times (a lot of these featured won't last longer than an hour) and, honestly, they're way too pretty to light. Keep 'em as decorations for your dressing table, WFH set up or your coffee table instead – that's how to get the most out of them.

It's the little things that make a space feel like home, tbh – like a proper shelf to keep your pretty stash of crystals, or a perfectly-placed candle on your dresser. So, we're all about the modern body candles we still keep seeing all over Insta. Our feeds have been full of curvy beauties that are ornaments in their own right – even without burning them. GIFT SET - Contained in this soy candle set are two different candles: The female body candle measures 3.9in x 2.3in and weighs 4oz. The bubble candle measures 2.36in x 2.36in and weighs 5.6oz. All delivered in our Charlotte Elise gift box. ECO-FRIENDLY - Long lasting and clean burning, these natural soy/palm candles will burn longer than conventional soy candles . Enjoy a smokeless, clean burn. Soy and palm wax candles are an eco-friendly alternative to paraffin wax and have no harmful fumes. The lush scents are long lasting and will give your space a delightful warm fragrance.

The best body form candles

While candles are usually for burning, given these candles' stunning form we actually wouldn't recommend lighting these for a while so you can admire their beauty. Besides, most of the candles are on the smaller side, with a burn time of around one hour. We advise placing yours on a pretty decorative tray (we like this marble one from The White Company and this set of two glam gold numbers from West Elm), and enjoy them as objects in their own right.
