LESSONS: HOW TO PROLONG THE LIFE OF YOUR CANDLE (TIPS AND TRICKS)

We want every one who purchases our of our elegant candles to get their full use of them. With being in the business for so long, you naturally pick up a few tricks to help keep your candle burning for longer. Today, we would be happy to share some with you. 

We proudly use sustainably sourced soy wax and blend high quality fragrance and pure essential oils. We do not add any synthetic chemical fillers to modify it’s true nature of soy wax compared to commercial paraffin-based waxes. Because each and every batch of all natural soy wax can vary due to it’s natural surroundings such of temperature and climate changes, we are always striving to ensure the best consistency by continuing to hand-pour in small batches. Take care with our candles to prolong its life - trim the wick down to 1/4" prior to burning to ensure a clean-burning flame.

Leaving the wick too long may cause the flame to enlarge which will burn the wax faster and shorten the lifespan of your candle. To extend the life and scent shelf-life of your candle, we recommend not to burn a candle for more than 4 hours at a time. 

Please be mindful to always use precaution during an open flame. Here are other helpful safety tips:

• A burning candle will get hot. Always burn a candle at least 12 inches away from flammable objects and surfaces. 

• Keep a burning candle away from drafts, open air vents or ceiling fans / open windows as this can make a candle burn more rapidly. 

• Always remember to keep matches out of children’s and pet’s reach. 

• Never leave a child or your furry pets alone in a room with a burning candle.

• Extinguish the flame before it burns down to the bottom when there’s 1/2” of wax. 

• Candle wax and water don’t mix. This can cause the wax to spatter or sparks the wick. 

• Avoid moving a candle while it is burning or while the wax is liquefied.
