BEFORE BURNING
We recommended trimming the wicks gently to a height of 4mm to 7mm, depending on your candle size, before every burn. When the wicks are trimmed regularly, it prevents the insides of the candle from accumulating soot from the smoking flame and keeps blackened wicks from falling into the liquid wax. Please light all the wicks at the same time.
DURING BURNING
For the first burn, allow the wax to liquefy entirely on the surface before extinguishing the flame. By doing this, you can prevent your candle from tunneling during subsequent burns. The length of time required will depend on the size of your candle. Do not burn beyond 1cm of liquid wax once the surface has liquified. This will ensure that your candle will last longer as liquid wax evaporates much more quickly. Never burn it down to the base. Leave 1cm of wax at the bottom. Burning a candle past this point can damage the holder or even the surface it’s sitting on.
AFTER BURNING
Before the wax becomes completely solid, recentre the wicks with a wick dipper to ensure even burning. Make sure each wick is vertical. Feel free to wipe the insides of the candle after the wax has cooled down with a clean damp cloth to maintain its pristine condition.
