How To Use Your Candle
Place your candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface before lighting. Trim the wick to about 5 mm each time before use to maintain a clean, even flame. Allow the candle to burn long enough during the first use to melt the wax evenly across the surface, which helps prevent tunneling.
Avoid burning the candle for more than 3 to 4 hours at a time. When extinguishing, do so gently and let the wax cool completely before relighting to preserve the candle’s quality and scent 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 and keep it out of reach of children and pets. Avoid placing the candle near flammable materials or moving it while the wax is still liquid.
Use on heat-resistant surfaces and store upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources to maintain the candle’s integrity and fragrance longevity.

Each candle is carefully filled and handled using clean practices to ensure quality and safety. We prioritise environmentally responsible choices by using recyclable packaging materials that protect your candle during shipping while minimizing waste.

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.
