Candle memory and burn times
When lighting for the first time, burn the candle until wax melts across the entire surface up to the sides of vessel as this will prevent tunnelling, and create an even burn for the duration of the candle's 'life'. This may take up to 2-4 hours.

Never burn a candle for longer than three hours at a time. Over burning a candle can cause excessive heat build-up and excessive wick ‘mushrooming’.

How to trim the wick of your candle
Prior to lighting, always trim the wick to 6mm using a wick trimmer giving the wick a nice clean straight edge.

Remove any wick debris that may have fallen onto the candle surface.

Whilst your candle is burning, ‘mushrooming’ at the end of the wick is normal. Wick ‘mushrooming’ must be removed by wick trimming prior to every burn and periodically during the burn if it becomes excessive. This ensures the cleanest burn possible.

Keep the wax clean
Keep the wax pool free of wick trimmings, matches and debris at all times.

How to extinguish a candle
Extinguish candle with a snuffer or dip the wick into the melted wax and then straighten wick to prevent smoking and also prevent hot wax from splattering. Do not blow out.

When using a snuffer, simply hover the snuffer directly above the flame and wait until fully extinguished. Using a snuffer to extinguish your candle can also help prevent wicks from drifting off centre to ensure your candles last longer.

Keep away from windy spaces
Draughts decrease burn time, cause uneven burning, smoking and diminished scent throw.

Don't burn all the way down
Don’t burn candles completely. Discard when candle wax is 3cm from the bottom to avoid overheating the glass jar.

How to store candles
Always store your candles in a cool, dark and dry place. Scented candles also look great stored under a glass cloche, which also protects from dust.

For all massage candles: Let your skin-safe wax cool to room temperature before using it on your skin.
