Trim the Wick: To ensure your candle, like our Seaside 150g, burns efficiently, always trim the wick to about 1/4 inch before lighting it. This simple step keeps the flame from growing too large and minimizes soot accumulation. Essential Candle Care

Ensure Even Wax Melt: The secret to preventing tunneling in your candle is to allow the wax to melt all the way to the container’s edge during the first burn. This ensures all the wax is utilized, not just the middle portion. Our Authority 90g candle is a great example of a candle that benefits from this practice. Essential Candle Care

Limit Burn Time: To maintain candle integrity and safety, avoid burning your candle for more than 4 hours at a stretch. Extended burn times can overheat the wax, leading to a distorted candle or, worse, a fire. Essential Candle Care

Position Away from Flammables: Always place your candles on a heat-resistant surface and maintain a safe distance from flammable materials like curtains, paper, or other combustibles. This reduces the risk of accidental fires. Essential Candle Care

Keep Out of Reach: Always prioritize safety by keeping candles out of reach of children and pets. This simple precaution can prevent potential injuries and fires. Essential Candle Care

Store Properly: To prolong your candle’s life, store it in a cool, dry place. Heat and moisture can degrade the candle, affecting its burn quality and fragrance. Our Jasmine 250g candle, for instance, retains its delightful scent when stored properly.

Know When to Discard: When your candle burns down to the last 1/2 inch of wax, it’s time to say goodbye. The heat from the flame can make the container’s bottom dangerously hot, posing a fire risk.
