Candle Care & Safety

 

Enjoy your Avril’s Aromas candle safely and get the best from every burn by following our simple care guide.

Before Lighting

Always place your candle on a stable, level and heat-resistant surface, away from draughts, children, pets and anything that could catch fire.

Before each burn, trim the wick to approximately 5mm. This helps maintain a controlled flame and reduces smoking and soot.

The First Burn

On the first burn, allow the wax to melt evenly across the surface towards the edges of the vessel. This helps encourage an even burn throughout the life of your candle.

While Burning

• Never leave a burning candle unattended.

• Keep away from children and pets.

• Keep away from draughts and flammable materials.

• Keep burning candles at least 10cm apart.

• Do not burn for longer than 4 hours at a time.

• Never move or touch a candle while it is lit or while the wax is hot.

• Keep the wick centred and upright.

• Do not allow the flame to touch the side of the glass.

• Never add anything to the melted wax.

After Burning

Carefully extinguish the candle and allow the wax and vessel to cool completely before touching or moving it.

Trim the wick back to approximately 5mm before relighting.

Stop using your candle when approximately 5mm of wax remains at the bottom of the vessel.

Please remember that candle containers can become hot during use.

Never leave a burning candle unattended.
