Candle Care
The first burn of your scented soy candle sets the burn memory. Allow at least 4 hours for this and DO NOT extinguish flame until the wax has melted to the edge of the glass
Note: the time this will take is dependent on the temperature of the room you are burning the candle in, a hot room will achieve this faster than a cold room
After the first burn...
burn for a minimum of one hour, but no longer than 3 hours at a time – this ensures your candle will always burn to edge of glass and minimises the chance of flooding the wick
Maintenance
After each burn, before the wax has set, re-centre the wick – this will help ensure an even burn
Trim the wick of your scented soy candle to 5mm once the candle is cold and remove any debris, as this can cause smoke
Keep your scented soy candles upright and out of direct sunlight. Soy wax has a low melt point and some oils will discolour in sunlight
Burning unevenly?
If your scented soy candle starts to burn unevenly, this is most likely from a draught. Turn the candle to even up the burn and then move to a different location as draughts will speed up the burn time
Safety First
Never leave a burning candle unattended
Keep candles away from children, pets and furnishings
Stop burning your candle once it is 1.5cm from the base of the glass – failure to do so can result in the glass exploding
Do not place / burn your scented candle on a heated surface (i.E. Heater/fire), this will speed up the burn time & could cause bottom of the candle glass to overheat & potentially explode
If burning more than one scented candle at a time leave at least 10cm between candles
