tips on how to get the most out of your candle

Candle Care 101

How to Burn

To achieve a more even burn and to ensure you can enjoy your candle for longer, burn for a maximum of 4 hours at a time and trim the wick before every use.

Light the candle in a room with ventilation, away from potential drafts or fans – this can cause sooting and a rapid or uneven burn.

Burning for over the recommended period of time can cause your candle wick to move or slant. Ensure you stop burning your candle when approximately 10mm of wax remains at the bottom.

Wick Care

Trim the wick to approximately 5mm once the wax has set to prevent the candle smoking, sooting or creating a high flame. Ensure you keep your wax pool clear of wick trimmings and debris.

Once your wick has been extinguished, centre and straighten it for the next use. 

Storing your Candle

When your candle isn’t in use, store it in a cool dry place and avoid dusty areas.
