Candle Care & Safety

 

Care & Safety for Candles

Our candles undergo rigorous safety and performance testing, but there are many factors while in use that can affect any candle’s performance, including: room drafts, debris that may have accumulated in the wax’s melt pool, wick length and proper pre‐burn trimming which is included on the instructions on the candle label.

To safely enjoy room-filling fragrance and aromatherapy, follow this important safety information when caring for your candle:

BEFORE LIGHTING

  • ALWAYS trim wick to 1/4 inch before lighting.
  • Dispose of wick trimmings and matches to keep debris out of wax pool.
  • AVOID drafts.
  • Set candle on heat-resistant surface.

WHILE LIT

  • Burn within sight. ALWAYS remain within line of sight of burning candles.
  • Extinguish candles before leaving room.
  • NEVER burn for longer than 4-hour intervals.
  • Keep away from things that catch fire.
  • NEVER burn candles on or near anything that can catch fire.
  • Keep away from children and pets. Children and pets could accidentally tip candle over.

AFTER USE

  • DO NOT extinguish with water.
  • ALWAYS allow wax to harden before relighting, touching or moving.
