Candle Care & Safety Guide

At [Your Business Name], we craft our candles with the finest ingredients to ensure a luxurious olfactory experience. To enjoy your candles safely and maximize their lifespan, please follow these essential safety guidelines.

The Golden Rule of Candle Safety

Never leave a burning candle unattended. Ensure your candle is within your sight at all times while lit. If you are leaving the room or going to sleep, extinguish the flame completely.

Essential Burning Instructions

The First Burn: To prevent "tunneling," allow your candle to burn until the wax melts across the entire surface to the edges of the vessel. This establishes a "memory" for the wax and ensures an even burn for the life of the candle.

Trim the Wick: Before every lighting, trim the wick to 1/4 inch (approx. 6mm). This prevents excessive smoking, flickering, and "mushrooming," ensuring a clean, controlled flame.

Placement Matters: Always place your candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface. Keep it away from drafts, ceiling fans, and air currents, which can cause uneven burning or accidental ignition of nearby objects.

Keep it Clear: Ensure the wax pool is free of wick trimmings, matches, or any debris. These can act as secondary wicks and cause the candle to overheat.

Safety Boundaries

Keep Out of Reach: Store and burn candles well out of reach of children and pets.

Distance Between Candles: If burning multiple candles, space them at least 3 inches apart to prevent them from melting each other or creating their own draft.

Know When to Say Goodbye: Discontinue use when only 1/2 inch of wax remains in the bottom of the vessel. Burning a candle past this point can cause the container to overheat and potentially crack.

General Health & Wellness

Our candles are formulated with premium oils and waxes; however, scents can affect individuals differently.

Ventilation: Always burn candles in a well-ventilated room to maintain air quality.

Sensitivities: If you have known respiratory sensitivities or allergies, we recommend a short initial burn to ensure the fragrance is comfortable for your environment.

Pro Tip: To extinguish your candle without smoke or splashing wax, use a candle snuffer or a wick dipper to gently submerge the flame into the melt pool.
