The Miniature Candle
We invite you to discover our usage tips to enjoy your candle in the best possible conditions.
Caring for your candle
-
Preparing your space
To protect your surfaces, especially if they're delicate (like wood or marble), it's best to place candles on a stand.
-
Light the candle
Your journey starts here. We recommend lighting your candle with a match to avoid any risk of burning yourself.
-
Coax out the scent
Do not let the candle burn for more than 2 hours. Never leave a candle unattended. Keep candles out of the reach of children and pets, and away from curtains and any other flammable materials.
-
Snuff out the flame
Snuff out the flame using a snuffer is recommended to avoid splashing hot wax.
After each use, trim the wick (ideal length: 3 to 5 mm) to avoid the risk of fire and unnecessary smoke. Recenter it with a wick trimmer while the wax is still liquid for optimal burning next time.
-
Final notes
We recommend you stop lighting your candle once the wax is only 5 millimeters thick (about 1/5 of an inch) or the metal wick sustainer becomes visible.
-
Ventilate your space
We recommend airing out your indoor space after burning a candle.
