Caring for your candle

How to love and care for your candle
  1. Trim wick before lighting 
  2. Keep your candle's wick to the specified length on the instruction label and before relighting
  3. Protect your surfaces
  4. Never leave a burning candle unattended 
  5. Ensure you place your candles on a heat-protected surface before lighting.
  6. Allow wax to form a melt pool
  7. Safely extinguish

  8. Wax has a ‘memory’. If you only burn the candle for a short period of time on the first burn, you will create a small pool of wax. Subsequent burns will also burn to the same diameter thus creating a tunnel in the candle.

  9. It is recommend that after the first burn, you only light your candle for a maximum of 4 hours at one time as longer periods can cause the wicks to drift and move if the melt pool becomes too deep.

  10. For safety, we recommend that you leave at least 10mm of wax at the bottom of your vessel prior to disposal. Burning the wicks below this level can be dangerous and cause the candle jar to overheat and possibly even crack.
