Candle Care

• Trim the candle wick to 5mm before each use to keep the wax clean.
• While many use pillar candles decoratively, if you do wish to burn them, we’d recommend burning them for no more than 1-2 hours at a time due to their size and shape. If burning for more than 2 hours at a time, you'll run the risk of the wax leaking through the sides of the candle.
• Although leaking is likely to happen at the latest stages of your burn, you want to enjoy as much of the candle as possible before this happens. We’d advise placing the candles on a heat proof surface such as a tray or on a specific candle mat just in case you do experience a leakage of wax.
• Remember to also trim the wicks to 5mm before every burn thereafter. All candles should be extinguished once there’s around 1cm of wax left.
• The burn time of these bubble candles is around 8 hours each (based on our tests of burning the candles in 2 hourly intervals, allowing them to fully set and harden again in between).

Container Candles

• Trim the candle wick to 5mm before each use to keep the wax clean.
• When lighting your candle for the first time, burn until the wax melts across the entire surface to the sides of the container. This helps prevent tunnelling and creates an even burn for the duration of the candle’s life. This may take 2-4 hours, depending on the size of your candle.
• Drafts will decrease burn time, cause uneven burning, smoking and a diminished scent throw.
• Avoid burning your candle for more than 3-4 hours at a time and cool for at least 2 hours before relighting. Remember to also trim the wicks to 5mm before every burn thereafter.
• All candles should be extinguished once there’s around 1cm of wax left.

Frosting is common with this type of wax, especially where colouring has been added. This in no way affects the performance of your candle.
