Candle Care

Each Posie candle is hand-poured with as much care possible with every effort made to maintain quality and consistency. To ensure you receive the most out of your burn time, you'll need to give your candle a little extra care by following the information below:

Always trim your wick to 5mm before lighting your candle to ensure you receive the maximum burn time.

• When burning your candle for the first time, allow the wax to melt until it reaches the edges of your vessel before extinguishing. This will create a candle memory and clean and even burn.

• Never leave your candle burning longer than 3 hours at a time. Once the wax reaches half way down your vessel, carefully monitor the burn time and extinguish the flame after 1 hour.  

• Discontinue use when the wax reaches 1-1.5cm from the bottom of your vessel.

• After use when the wax has cooled and re set, trim your wick to 5mm again before relighting to avoid 'mushrooming' of the wick.

GENERAL CARE

• Never leave your burning candle unattended
• Burn your candle on a heat resistant surface
• Never move your candle while lit
• Store in a cool dry place, away from sunlight

SHELF LIFE

Our candles have a shelf life of approx. 1-2 years to guarantee best performance. Due to the delicate nature of soy wax, over time candles can degrade with the potential to become difficult to light, burn or give off a weak/no scent throw.

Soy wax candles can be sensitive, please store in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive temperatures.

REUSE YOUR VESSEL

When finished burning your candle, simply wash out any left over soy wax with hot water and detergent to use for whatever you wish!
