Candle Care

Although our candles are great for display they have also been designed to be used. To ensure you get the most out of your WaveyWax candle please see the following guidelines:

THE FIRST BURN

When lighting for the first time please ensure the wick is pointing straight up before lighting. Light the candle and burn until a wax pool develops to the edge of the candle. Extinguish the candle and relight once the wax has hardened.

TRIM YOUR WICK

We recommend keeping your wick trimmed to approximately 5mm before every burn. Keeping it at this length will control the size of the flame.

MAXIMISING THE SCENT THROW

When burning indoors keep windows and doors closed. Burn for at least 30 minutes to achieve maximum scent throw.

EXTINGUISHING YOUR CANDLE

To extinguish your candle dip the wick into the melted wax pool and then straighten. This will stop the wick from smoking and will help when relighting the candle.

STORING YOUR CANDLE

Candle waxes and fragrances are sensitive to both temperature and light. When not on display try to store your candle in a cool, dark and dry place away from sunlight and heat.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Our candles are meant to be enjoyed, but it is important that you follow some common sense safety rules when burning them.

Never leave a burning candle unattended.

Extinguish all candles when you leave a room or before going to sleep.

Keep candles out of reach of children and pets. Only use candles on a stable, heat-resistant surface.
