How to Light Your Candle:
- Trim the Wick: Before each burn, trim the wick to about ¼ inch. This length helps ensure a cleaner burn and prevents the flame from becoming too large.
- Let It Burn: The first time you light your candle, allow it to burn until the wax pool reaches the edge of the container. This process, known as “the first burn,” prevents tunneling and ensures an even burn in future uses.
- Use a Candle Snuffer: To extinguish your candle, we recommend using a snuffer. This method minimizes smoke and preserves the integrity of the wax.
- Safety First: Never leave a lit candle unattended, and keep it away from drafts, children, and pets. Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface.
Additional Tips for Candle Care:
- Avoid Drafts: To prevent uneven burning, keep your candle away from fans, air conditioners, and open windows.
- Wax Pool: Ensure the wax pool is free of debris, such as trimmed wicks or matches, as these can become a fire hazard.
- Storage: Store your candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent warping and discolouration.
By following these candle care tips, you can enhance the life span of your candles, enjoy their full aromatic potential, and maintain a safe and cozy atmosphere in your home. Happy burning!
