How To Use Your Candle
Place your candle on a heat-resistant surface before lighting. Trim the wick to approximately 5 mm each time to promote a clean and even flame. Allow the candle to burn long enough during the first use to melt the wax evenly across the surface, preventing tunnelling.
Avoid burning the candle for longer than 3 to 4 hours at a stretch. When extinguishing, do so gently and allow the wax to cool fully before relighting to maintain optimal performance.
Care, Safety And Storage
For external use only. Do not apply wax or fragrance oils to the skin. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep out of reach of children and pets, and away from flammable materials. Do not move the candle while the wax is still liquid to avoid spills or burns.
Avoid placing the candle on heat-sensitive surfaces. Store the candle upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources to preserve its quality and fragrance.
