CANDLE CARE GUIDE

How To Burn Your Candle Safely

Place your candle on a stable, heat resistant surface. Light your candle in a well ventilated room and avoid any drafts, wind or humidity which can cause the candle to soot (black marks on the vessel), or cause rapid, erratic and uneven burning.

Upon burning your candle for the first time, make sure the melt pool has reached the edges of the vessel. This could range between 2-4 hours. Burning for less time could cause the candle to “tunnel”, also known as Candle Tunnelling, which will leave a build up of wax around the sides of the candle. Wax has a ‘memory’. If you only allow a small pool of wax to melt, subsequent burns will also burn to the same diameter thus creating a tunnel in the candle.

However, we suggest after the first burn to only light your candle for a maximum of 4 hours at one time as longer periods can cause the wicks to move, slant or soot the jar. For safety, we recommend that you leave at least 10mm of wax at the bottom of your vessel prior to disposal.

How To Care For Wicks

When your candle is lit, always keep the wax pool clean of any debris as this can act as a secondary wick causing your candle to burn faster. After extinguishing the flame, always centre and straighten the wick as burning for longer periods of time will deepen the melt pool and can cause the wick to slant.

Long or slanted wicks can create high flames, smoking or sooting. To prevent this, we suggest trimming the wick to 5mm after every burn, once the wax has set. If the wicks are left untrimmed, any future burns will be less fragrant.

Candle Burn Time

Our candle jars have varying maximum burn times depending on how they are cared for. Below is an approximate number of ‘burn hours’ for each of our candles when burnt correctly.

Small Jar ( Double Wick)  – 30hrs +

Small Refill (Double Wick) – 30hrs +

Large Jar (Triple Wick) – 25hrs +

Large Refill (Triple Wick) – 25hrs +

Triple wick candles will burn faster than candles with fewer wicks. However, they provide more flame, light and stronger scent throw.

How To Clean A Vessel For Refills

Before using your chosen refill candle, we recommend that you clean your vessel. We suggest filling the vessel using warm water and washing up liquid. The remaining wax and wicks will rise to the surface and solidify, making it easy to remove. Wash the vessel by hand and take care not to scratch any paintwork on the outside.

Your refill candle will be supplied with sticky pads to keep the wicks firmly placed inside the vessel. Failure to use the sticky pads could cause your wicks to move & float due to a lack of support when the wax is melting.
