Care & safety
Make every burn calmer, cleaner and more even
A little care helps your candle last well. Always read the label on your specific product first, then use these notes as a simple guide.
Candle care basics
Let the first burn reach the edges
On the first burn, allow the wax to melt across the full surface. This helps reduce tunnelling and supports a more even burn later.
Trim the wick
Before lighting, trim the wick to approximately 0.6 cm when needed. A tidy wick helps the candle burn more evenly.
Burn for 2-3 hours
A steady burn of around 2-3 hours works well for most sessions. Do not burn a candle for more than 4 hours at a time.
Let it cool before touching
The container and wax can stay hot after use. Let everything cool fully before moving, cleaning or refilling the jar.
Safe use
Final launch wording should match the product labels and CLP safety documents. These are the current general care notes from the product brief.
- Never leave a burning candle unattended.
- Keep away from children, pets, draughts and anything flammable.
- Place candles and burners on a stable, heat-resistant surface.
- Do not move a candle while it is burning or while the wax is liquid.
- Keep the wax pool free from wick trimmings, matches and other debris.
- Stop use when the recommended amount of wax remains.
- Follow the product label and any container-specific instructions, especially for Unwind in its coffee-cup format.
