Candle Care & Safety

1. NEVER burn a candle longer than our recommended times, no more than 3 hours is recommended for a small candle + 5 hours for a large candle. Allow wax to completely cool before relighting giving a minimum of 8 hour break in-between burns.
   
2. For first burn allow melt pool (Liquid wax) to reach edges of glass jar, this will ensure maximum fragrance and efficiency of your candle. 
3. Place jar on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from flammable objects and drafts. Keep candle away from objects that may fall into candle. Never burn candle if foreign objects fall inside jar.
4. Never use water to extinguish candle. 
5. Keep candle away from anything that could catch fire. Keep away from drafts, moisture and water. 
6. Never move candle while burning or if there's liquid wax, ensure wax is solid before handling.
7. Do not touch wax when in liquid state. 
8. Do not use lid to extinguish candle. 
9. Always ensure your wicks remain upright. Never allow a candle flame to become in contact with the side of the glassware.
10. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Jar may be hot when in use. Never move or touch a burning candle.
11. Trim the wick to 5mm tall before every burn. We strongly recommend using a candle snuffer to extinguish candle.
12. Candle is finished when 1cm of wax remains at the bottom of the jar. DO NOT BURN LOWER THAN THIS.
13. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Candles are recommended for use by adults.
14. Store candle in a dry cool place, below 24°C and away from direct sunlight.
15. Always use common sense and responsibility when using a candle. IT HAS A FLAME. Our candles are throughly tested and tried numerous times to ensure the highest level of safety according to these instructions. Florense is NOT liable for any damages from the misuse of our candles.
