How To Use Your Candle
Place your candle on a heat-resistant surface away from flammable objects. Before lighting, trim the wick to approximately 5 mm to ensure a steady flame. For the first burn, allow the melted wax to reach the edges of the jar to prevent tunnelling. Avoid burning the candle for longer than three to four hours at a time. When extinguishing, do so gently and let the wax cool completely before relighting.
Care, Safety And Storage
For external use only. Do not apply wax or fragrance directly to the skin. Never leave a burning candle unattended and keep it out of reach of children and pets. Avoid placing the candle near flammable materials or in drafty areas. Do not move the candle while the wax is liquid, and always set it on a heat-resistant surface. Store your candle upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources.

Do not store candles inside parked vehicles or in areas that become very hot, especially during South African summers. Keep out of reach of children and pets and away from food, food preparation areas and open flames when not in use.
