HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR COCONUT-SOY CANDLES

1st burn - ALLOW A FULL MELT POOL at least 2-3 hrs.

Be sure to keep your candle lit long enough for the melted wax to almost reach the sides of the vessel.  This is called a full melt pool. This process could take 2 - 4 hours to be achieved. 

A major benefit of our switch to coconut-soy wax is that this wax is a little more forgiving and, most times, does self-correct!

TRIM YOUR WICK

Pinch the black portion of the wick between your thumb and index finger and remove before re-lighting candle - or, use a wick trimmer.

Failure to trim your wick can cause the candle to extinguish itself, or in contrast, the candle flame could burn too high. You may melt a bit of the wax around the wick with your lighter before lighting the wick, to assist the wax flow, which helps keep the candle lit.

If your candle flame is burning too high (over 1 inch), you are burning your candle in a drafty location, or your wick has not been trimmed enough.

PRACTICE SAFE CANDLE BURNING

Never leave your candle unattended (always be in the same room as your candle), keep away from drafts, burn on a level fire-resistant surface, and always extinguish the wicks when the melt pool has almost reached the sides of the vessel.  Never leave your candle where it could be reached by children or pets. 

Discontinue use when silver wick clips are visible, or a 1/2 inch of wax remains at the bottom of the vessel. 

NEVER BURN CANDLE FOR LONGER THAN 4 HOURS

An ideal candle burn time is between 2 and 4 hours - if burned longer your candle may overheat, will not burn as clean, and could cause serious harm.
