Candle care & safety

A few simple steps to enjoy your candle safely and get the best from it.

Before you light

  • Trim the wick to about 5mm before every burn.
  • Place the candle on a flat, heat-resistant surface, away from draughts, curtains and anything that can catch fire.
  • Remove the lid before lighting. The tin will get hot, so let it cool before touching it.

While it burns

  • Never leave a burning candle unattended, and always put it out before leaving the room or going to sleep.
  • Keep out of reach of children and pets.
  • On the first burn, let the wax melt right across the top. This helps it burn evenly.
  • Burn for no more than about four hours at a time.
  • Do not move the candle while the wax is liquid.

Putting it out

  • Put the lid on to snuff the flame, or use a snuffer. Avoid blowing it out, which can spray hot wax.
  • Stop using the candle when about 1cm of wax is left in the tin.
  • Never add water to a burning candle.

Made on St Agnes

Every candle is made from soy wax on our family farm on St Agnes, inspired by the walks, flowers and sea air of the island. Meet us or visit St Agnes.
