our ingredient standards
what you'll never find in our products
At Bask Hour, we believe you shouldn't need a chemistry degree to understand what's in the products you bring into your home. That's why we're committed to creating non-toxic home fragrance products made with thoughtfully selected ingredients and without many of the substances commonly found in traditional candles and scented products.
Here's what we leave out and why it matters.
-
1. phthalates
what are they?
Phthalates are chemicals sometimes used in fragrances to help scents last longer.
why do we avoid them?
Some studies have linked certain phthalates to hormone disruption and other potential health concerns. While regulations continue to evolve, we'd rather take a cautious approach.
our approach
We use phthalate-free fragrance oils so you can enjoy your favourite scents without the added worry.
-
2. carcinogens
what are they?
Carcinogens are substances known or suspected to increase the risk of cancer.
why do we avoid them?
Your home should be a place of comfort, not concern.
our approach
We carefully select ingredients and suppliers that meet strict safety standards and avoid ingredients known to contain carcinogens.
-
3. animal testing
what is it?
Animal testing involves using animals to assess the safety of products or ingredients.
why do we avoid it?
We believe beautiful products shouldn't come at the expense of animal welfare.
our approach
Bask Hour products are cruelty-free, and we work with suppliers who share our commitment to ethical practices.
-
4. plastics
what are they?
Single-use plastics are often used in packaging and shipping materials.
why do we avoid them?
Simple. Small choices add up. In a world driven by mass production and unnecessary waste, we focus on thoughtful, intentional choices that are better for your space and better for the world around us.
our approach
We use plastic-free packaging and continuously look for ways to reduce waste throughout our business.
why clean ingredients matter
When you light a candle, refresh your linens, or scent your home, you're bringing those products into the spaces where you relax, recharge, and spend time with the people you love.
That's why we focus on creating non-toxic candles, reed diffusers, and linen sprays made with carefully selected ingredients, premium fragrances, and thoughtful craftsmanship. For us "clean" isn't about fear, it's about transparency. It's about creating products you can feel good about using every day.
