Candle Care

CANDLE CARE

First Burn – When you light your candle for the first time allow the wax to burn across the entire surface to the edges of the container. This will assist in preventing tunnelling & help promote an even burn for the duration of the candle’s life.

Trim Wick Before Every Use – It is normal in Candle Wax for the wick to mushroom. This is easily fixed by trimming your wick to 1/4inch. Trimming will ensure your candle does not burn hotter than it should & thus will prolong the life of the candle. However, be sure not to cut the wick too short or it will drown in the wax.

Avoid Draughts – Keep candle away from draughts around the home so as not to disturb the flame & help to keep an even clean burn.

Burn Time – For safety reasons DO NOT BURN your candle more than 4 hours at a time.

Putting Candles Out – It is always best to use a Candle Dipper rather than blowing out to prevent debris discolouring the wax. This will help to maximise the candle’s burn time.

Keep The Burn Pool Clean – If you get any black at the rim of your glass, simply wipe it away with a tissue, this may be a sign that your wick is too long.

End of Candle – Extinguish the flame when there is approx. 10mm of wax in the bottom of candle jar.
