FAQ

How do I prevent tunneling?

To prevent tunneling, allow the candle to burn long enough for the melted wax to reach the edges on the first burn. This creates an even surface for future burns.

Why should I trim the wick?

Trimming the wick to about 5mm before each burn helps maintain a clean, steady flame, reduces smoke, and prevents soot buildup.

How long should I burn my candle?

For best results, burn your candle for 2–4 hours at a time. This helps preserve the fragrance and ensures an even burn.

Can I travel with my candle?

Yes, our candles especially the mini sizes are perfect for travel. Always allow the wax to cool before moving and keep the lid secured.
