CANDLE CARE AND SAFETY

Here are a few things to keep in mind to help you enjoy your candle from the first burn to the very last flicker of the flame.

​

The first time you burn your candle, make sure you light it long enough for the entire surface to melt. This will ensure your candle has a nice, even burn.

You should aim to have your candle lit for approximately 2 hours for the first time.

​​​

Make sure you burn your candle in a well-ventilated room and keep it away from any drafts. â€‹

​

Once your candle has cooled you will want to trim the wick (you can also pinch off the excess wick with your fingers). You should always leave approximately 4mm of wick and just remove the excess soot head from the previous burn. Keeping the wick at the correct length will help your candle burn evenly, prevent it burning too fast and will increase its throw (how the candle scent fills a room).​

​

Always stop burning your candle when approximately 10mm of wax is left and never leave a lit candle unattended.
