Did you know that burning candles for too long can be dangerous? When you burn a candle longer than the manufacturer’s instructions recommend, carbon starts to collect on the wick.

To avoid this, always follow the manufacturer’s instructions – in general, You should not burn candles for longer than four hours, and they should be allowed to cool for at least two hours before being relit.

Candle Care Tips
1. Time for the wax to melt completely
Allow enough time for the wax to melt completely to the edges of the container to prevent tunneling is a main Candle care tip and can be easy avoided. Once you allow your wax to melt to the edges it will evenly melt not allowing the walls of the candle to cave in on themselves. We recommend planning to have the candle on for 2 to 3 hours max ensuring that the candle melts evenly to get the most use. If you turn on a candle, let it burns for an hour then turn it off it will start forming wax walls not allowing you to fully use all the wax. We also recommend trimming the tip of the wick after or before every use to get a clean burn the next time you turn on the candle.
