HOW CAN I GET THE BEST BURN FROM MY CANDLE?Updated 3 months ago

To get the most out of your candles and ensure a safe, long-lasting burn, here are some essential tips: 

  1. Trim your wick before burning your candle the first time and every subsequent burn thereafter.
    This helps the candle burn more evenly, reduces soot, and prevents the flame from getting too large. A well-trimmed wick also helps to extend the life of your candle

  2. We advise burning your candle for periods of no longer than 3 hours at a time
    For safety and optimal performance, avoid burning your candle for more than 3 hours at a time. This tip will make your candle last longer and burn smoothly

  3. Discontinue burning your candle when there is 10mm / 1cm of wax is remaining.
    This prevents overheating the glass which can cause stress on the vessel

  4. Always burn your candle on a stable and heat resistant surface, away from drafts or items that can catch alight.
    Drafts from open windows, air conditioning, or ceiling fans can cause uneven burning and flickering. Place your candle in a spot where the flame remains steady and safe

  5. Never leave a burning candle unattended, near children or pets

  6. If you’re burning more than one candle at a time, space your candles approximately 100mm (10cm) apart
