Review on 🕯️ TOMOKO White Sage Candle with Sage Leaf, Rose, Lavender, Himalayan Salt & Essential Oil by Alicia Jones

I feel so bad leaving anything other than a great review for something that is supposed to be spiritually cleansing, healing and positive. sigh. but here I go: I was so excited to get this, basically for the case. First, the case isn't as aesthetically pleasing as one might expect from company photos. Mine was very, very rough on the outside and felt quite rough and brittle both inside and out. I ordered a large one and unfortunately mine has a few natural holes which as far as I know are natural and don't necessarily need to help but there is a large piece missing in the middle which has chipped off the center so much of the (natural?) Iridescence has disappeared. The reason I doubt the naturalness is that I've decided to use my entire Palo Santo wand tonight - I've been going through some major life changes and so many sad/bad things are happening so fast lately happened. The interior paint of the case (of course?) literally started to melt right before our eyes! You can see in my last photo that he melted part of the middle as well. Which makes me think/realize that it needs to be painted somehow and isn't flameproof. Palo Santo burns quickly, but I can't imagine what a sage would do with the bowl if it keeps burning. a bit more. Due to multiple holes, I can't fill it with the ritual sand I bought to protect it from the flames; but isn't it about the bowl? Also for flame protection?
