How to choose traditional candles for Valentine's Day?

To choose the best unscented traditional candles for Valentine's Day, you need to answer a few simple questions:

• Are you preparing dinner (and will spend most of your time eating)? If so, choose table or taper candles and place them in the candle holder. They can burn for up to 8 hours, so that's more than enough for even a fancy home-cooked dinner.
• Are you planning a date night at home in your living room (e.g. movie night, game night)? Pillar candles on a durable ceramic or glass tray fit perfectly. You can add unscented soy tealights in candle holders here and there.
• Are you looking for candles to light in your bedroom? Always choose candles that burn longer, such as pillar candles or long-lasting tealights. Place them in safe places and always in candlesticks or lanterns. More candles, more fun!
• Are you looking for something original? Be sure to try floating candles, preferably red, which is associated with Valentine's Day.

Candle light is very soft and comforting, so the perfect Valentine's Day candle theme will include more candles in one room, or even a selection of multi-wick candles or rustic candles.

What color candles should you choose for Valentine's Day?

Red is the color of love... the red color is also inevitably associated with Valentine's Day. Surprise your other half on this special evening with beautiful, sensual decorative red candles. Candles in this color enhance sensuality and make you feel even better together. You can choose from classic unscented candles in the form of practical pillars, aromatic red tealights and candlesticks, as well as from unique scented candles in red.

How does the color red work?

Red stimulates action, is associated with the element of fire, with the intensity of life-giving blood, with the power of desire, love, power and strength. The meaning of the color red is associated with strong emotional tension, the color red helps stimulate metabolism and also increases blood pressure. Red also gives courage and is one of the elements in many national flags. Red, however, is a color associated with sensuality and fascination, which is why we seductively choose red lipstick or red nails.

Another popular color chosen for a Valentine's Day evening for two is, of course, pink (and also shades of purple). Pink is associated with girlishness, delicacy and innocent charm. Some people say that the color pink is charming, sweet and innocent. However, pink candles can have very different color intensity, from delicate pastel pink and the so-called dirty pink, up to pink called candy pink and deep, strong pink with a shade similar to the color of a fuchsia flower. Depending on the selected intensity of the pink shade, you can achieve an effect in the interior ranging from girly and delicate to feminine, strong and very sensual.

What to combine pink with?

Pink is the perfect choice for Valentine's Day! Pink candles, both traditional and scented, will be a perfect reference to the style of this Valentine's Day. What color should you combine pink candles with? Pastel shades go perfectly with the so-called neutral shades, such as variations on white, cream and beige. Silver and gold accessories will also go well with them. You can combine dark shades of pink with the same neutral colors as a slight contrast, but you will achieve a truly sensual effect by combining expressive pink with an anthracite shade of gray and deep black.
