Candle Care & Safety

 

The first time you burn your candle is important as it sets the memory for future burns and makes sure you don't get those annoying tunnels down the center. Make sure the wax melts almost all the way to the edges of the jar, this usually takes about 3 hours.

• Trim the wick to 5mm before each burn removing the excess wick which can cause the flame and heat to increase, don't skip this!
• Always burn your candle on a heat resistant surface
• Keep away from draughts 
• Keep out of reach of children & pets
• Never burn for more than 3 hours at a time
  
• Never leave a lit candle unattended
• Do not burn the candle all the way down as this can cause overheating. Leave approx. 5mm of wax at the bottom of the jar. 
• Do not move or carry the jar when the wax is hot or the candle is lit. If you accidentally get hot wax on your skin, wash off immediately with running cold water.

You can find safety instructions on the base of all of our candles.
