Candle Safety
Candle Safety
Each candle includes care card and lighting instructions on the bottom label. Candles add a fragrant enhancement to living and work spaces and are safe to enjoy, but we encourage care and attention to the following guidelines:
- Always burn candles in a well-ventilated room and on a heat-resistant surface.
- Do not leave a burning candle unattended.
- Avoid drafts, vents, ceiling fans or other moving air pathways to encourage even burning and minimize smoke or a flickering wick.
- Never touch a burning candle or move a candle when the wax is liquid.
- Never extinguish candles with water.
- Make sure a candle is completely extinguished before leaving the room.
- Keep candles out of the reach of small children and pets.
- Never burn a candle on or near anything that can catch fire.
Burning Your Candle
Before
Always trim your wick to 1/8” – 1/4” before lighting. Every time. Your candle will burn longer, cleaner and more evenly.
During
For the initial burn, allow the candle to create a full melted wax pool across the entire candle. This will ensure even burning and maximum fragrance release for the life of your candle and is typically achieved within 3 hours.
For subsequent lightings we recommend a burn time of 3-4 hours, fully melting the wax across the top each time. If you like to leave a candle burning for an extended time, we strongly recommend extinguishing the flame, trimming the wicks and relighting every 3-4 hours. This will prolong the burn time and reduce the possibility of excess carbon build-up on the wick tip.
If your wick begins smoking or flickering excessively, extinguish the flame and trim the wick – then relight the candle.
Keep the wax pool clear of wick trimmings, matches and debris at all times.
After
Use care when extinguishing the candle; a short, directed puff of air aimed at each wick is usually sufficient.
Do not move candles until the wax is cooled and set. Use caution as containers can be hot to the touch.
Discard candles when there is 1/4 inch of wax remaining.
Always
Enjoy your candles!
Consider using several candles for a permeating fragrance in large spaces with high ceilings or open floor plans.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What wax do you use?
We use 100% soy wax which is natural, sustainable, vegan and non-toxic. You can expect an even and long-lasting burn from our candles.
Do you use essential oils?
We use high-quality, 100% essential oils for all our products that are specifically extracted using steam distlled method. In addition, all of our fragrances are free of phthalates, parabens, and petroleum.
What about dyes or other additives?
Nope, and nope. Our candles are natural wax and essential oil only and we use wood wick for all our candles.
What size candle do I need for my space?
One candle works great in bathrooms, kitchens, bedrooms and typically sized living/work spaces. Larger rooms or spaces with high ceilings or open floor plans may need multiple candles for the best fragrance permeation. You can have multiple candles of the same scent, or mix and match them for your own unique blend.
Can your containers be reused?
Yes! Once there is about 1/4 inch of wax left, stop using the candle. Use caution and care when removing the remaining wax, wicks and any labelling. Our suggestion is to pour warm water into the wax and let it melt. Once melted the wax will float up you can either wash it out or wait for the wax to thicken on top of water to clean it. Then place the container in hot soapy water to soften any residue and labels, and wash, rinse and dry. Note: we assume no liability for candle containers or subsequent results of reuse by the consumer, once purchased.
