CANDLE CARE

Following a few simple steps will allow you to get the most out of your candle as well as maintain the presentation of how your candle will look.

• When lighting your candle for the first time, please allow the wax to melt all the way to the edge of the jar. There is no set time for this process, so burn for as long as the candle needs. This will prevent tunnelling and create an even burn for the duration of your candles life.
• Please make sure you trim the wick before each use, this step is very important as it will minimise soot, prevent mushrooming, control the flame of your wick and stops debris from falling into the wax.
• Always burn your candle within sight, keep away from drafts and vibrations.
• Do not burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time. Here's why! By burning for extended periods of time, this can cause the wax to melt right down and may cause the wick to lift from the surface. This is also a safety precaution and will prevent the jar itself from getting too hot as well as the surface that the candle is sitting on.

 

ABOUT OUR CANDLES

 Here at Love & Light we want to give our customers nothing but the best service and products. Since soy wax is a natural product, you may notice slight variations throughout the year. The wax may be very soft in its solid state, or as hard as a rock during other times. Sometimes the wax melts so clear and translucent, and other times it may melt and look a little cloudy. All of this is normal and expected when choosing a soy candle. We take pride in the quality of our products and are always testing to find the best results.
