Candle Care

”How to love your candle” 

• The first burn is the most important burn. To prevent tunnelling, allow enough time  (typically 3-4 hours on a large candle) for the wax to melt completely forming a pool of liquid  to the edge before blowing out. 
• Never move the lit candle and always place the candle on a stable and heat resistant surface.  • Do not burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time 
• Avoid exposure to drafts and never leave a lit candle unattended. 
• Always store your candle in a cool, dry place below 25 degrees and away from direct sunlight  as this can cause discolouration. 
• Ensure the wicks are trimmed to 7mm (1/4 inch) prior to lighting the candle. Keeping wicks  trimmed prevents sooting, mushrooming and blackened glass. It is also important that wick  trimmings are not left in the candle wax, as this will cause black soot and will discolour your  candle. 
• We recommend regularly wiping the inside of the glass with a dry cloth prior to each burn to  remove any soot build up. Please do not trim wicks too short as this will result in too small of  a flame and an uneven melt pool. 
• Do not burn candle when wax level is below 7mm (1/4 inch) from the bottom of the jar.
