Candle Care & Safety
Follow these guidelines to maximise scented candle performance, burn time, and safety.
STORAGE
Scented candles should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Temperature fluctuations, humidity and UV light can degrade product ingredients and cause discolouration.
CANDLE CARE
Burn for 2-4 hours at a time to maintain a full, even wax pool. This will achieve optimal scent throw and avoid tunneling.
Centre the wick after each burn whilst wax is still pliable. Allow wax to cool and solidify completely before relighting.
Trim wicks to approximately 0.5 cm and remove foreign debris and wick trimmings before burning. This will reduce sooting & improve overall burn time. Never exceed 4 hours of burning on a standard size candle. Smaller votive candles should not be burnt for longer than 2-3 hours.
SAFETY
Remove all outer packaging before lighting. Place on a heat resistant surface, away from draughts and flammable material. Always burn candle within sight. Keep away from children & animals. Never move a lit candle. Snuff, do not blow out a burning candle. Do not burn the last 1-1.5cm of wax. This can cause the glass to crack from excessive heat. Trim wicks to 0.5cm before burning to avoid sooting & overheating. Never exceed 4 hours of burn time.
