Candle Care

THE FIRST BURN

When lighting for the first time, be sure to let the wax melt across the entire surface up to the sides of the vessel. This ensures an even burn for the duration of the candles life. This can take between 2-4 hours but we promise it will make your candle last longer.

TRIM YOUR WICKS

The importance of trimming your wick before each burn is crucial to having a high performance candle that looks and smells great.

An untrimmed wick can cause black smoke, curling of the wick and a flickering flame which are all detrimental to a long life burning candle.

If your candle shows any signs of these, extinguish your candle, allow to cool, trim your wick and re burn.

KEEP THE WAX CLEAN

Keep the wax pool free of wick trimmings, matches and debris at all times.

DON’T BURN ALL THE WAY DOWN

Although tempting to burn your candle all the way down til there is no wax in sight it can be quite dangerous.

Allow no less than 10 mm of wax at the bottom of the vessel as the flame needs a solid base of wax to avoid overheating the glass jar.

HOW TO EXTINGUISH A CANDLE

Extinguish candle with a snuffer, or dip the wick into the melted wax and then straighten wick to prevent smoking and also prevent hot wax from splattering. Do not blow out.

MAXIMIZE YOUR SCENT THROW

Keeping windows and doors closed whilst burning will really extenuate your candles fragrance 

HOW TO CLEAN CANDLES

Your can remove dust and fingerprints from a candle by gently rubbing the surface with a piece of nylon or a soft cloth. The cloth can be dry or slightly dampened with water
