When lighting your candle for the first time, burn the candle for at least 1 to 1.5 hours, so the candle melts equally across the entire surface to the side of the vessels. Lighting for less time can cause the candle to "tunnel," leading to wax build-up around the jar. Always burn within sight. Do not leave burning candles unattended or lit while sleeping.
Use the Lazy Royal candle lid provided to extinguish the candle; this prevents smoking and ensures the candle is completely out with no glow present at the wick.
Do not burn your candle for longer than 3 hrs at a time. This helps to preserve the fragrance.
Do not burn your candle all the way down. Always leave at least ½ inch of non-molten wax at the bottom.
Do not touch or move the candle when burning. Avoid moving candles when the wax has melted until it has thoroughly cooled.
Extinguish the candle if it smokes, flickers or if the flame is too high. Let the candle cool, trim the wick, then check for drafts before relighting.
How should I trim my wick?
Make sure to trim the wick to 1/4" before each burn (except the first burn) and remove any mushrooming that occurs on the wick.
If soot forms on the sides of the jar, extinguish the candle, wait for it to cool and clean the sides with a damp cloth. Trim the wick and relight!
Please keep the wax pool free of wick trimmings, matches and debris at all times.
Where should I light my candle?
Keep your candle at an ideal location where it cannot be knocked over. Make sure the surface is even and away from children or pets.
Burn in desired space for at least 30 minutes. Be cautious of open windows and doors since it will disperse the scent.
Always store your candles in a cool, dark and dry place. Avoid placing your candles where they will be directly exposed to sunlight or harsh indoor lighting.
Avoid placing candles near anything that can catch on fire, such as draperies, books, loose fabric etc.
Light your candle away from drafts or vents; this can cause fast or uneven burning and soot stains (black marks on the candle jar).
