Candle Care

How to care for your candles.

The First Burn

  • When you burn our soy candles for the first time make sure the wax melts to the edge of the container (approximately 2-4 hours depending on the size of the vessel).
  • This will give you a clean melt and will prolong the life of your candle and reduce tunnelling.

General Care

  • Keep the wick trimmed to 0.5 cm tall and keep wax clear of debris. 
  • Do not allow the melt pool to extend all the way to the bottom of the glass as this could loosen the wick sticker and allow it to move – potentially causing heat issues.
  • Place on a stable surface away from flammable objects.  Keep out of reach of children and pets. 
  • Never leave a candle unattended.

Scent Throw

  • Every time you light your soy candle burn for at least one hour but not longer than 4 hours.  
  • Burning the candle in a room appropriate to the size of the candle will assist the scent throw in filling the room. 

Candle Storage

  • If you’re not burning your candle leave in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight.

Diffuser Care

How to care for your diffuser.

Create your Diffuser

  • Unscrew the cap and remove the white protective cover from the cap. Replace the cap on the bottle.
  • Dip the reeds in the fragrance and turn up the other way. We suggest ‘’flipping the reeds’’ twice a week for maximum scent enjoyment.
  • Use a coaster under your diffuser to protect your surface.
  • Do not light the reeds.

General Tips

  • Place in a high traffic area as this encourages air circulation and lifts the fragrance.
  • Flip the reeds twice a week to freshen the fragrance, taking care not to spill the fragrance oil.
  • Please contact us for replacement oils.

Wax Melt Safety

Safety tips for your wax melter & melts.

The First Melt

  • Place your melts in an approved wax warmer/burner, never add water. Please see our hand-made range.
  • Place on a stable surface away from flammable objects.
  • Reuse melts until the scent fades then clean residue.  Do not put wax down the sink.  Add a new melt when required.
  • We suggest using two of our melts at a time.

General Tips

  • Don’t leave wax warmer on for more than 3 hours at a time.
  • Keep out of reach of children and pets.
  • Never leave a burning wax warmer unattended.
