Candle Safety & Care

The Lighthouse Collection is passionate about the candle products that we sell and we want every customer to have to gain the maximum pleasure and longevity from their candles, so lets pass on a few tips so you can maximise your enjoyment!

1. Never leave a burning candle unattended, always burn within sight. Keep away from drafts, water and moisture or anything that can catch on fire.

2. Never extinguish a candle by using water , always use a candle snuffer or blow gently and directly on the flame until it is extinguished.

3.Keep the candle out of reach of children and pets.

4. For optimal preformance of your candle ensure the wicks of the candle are upright and trimmed to 7mm after use. After each burn ensure you maintain them to 7mm before relighting the candle again.

5. Depending on the candle size, for maximum longevity ensure you burn for the following time periods,

350gm candle burn for no less than 1 hour and do not exceed 3 hours at a time

200gm candle burn for no less than 30 minutes and do not exceed  2 hours at a time

6.Cease burning your candle when there is only 10mm of solid wax  left in the base of the candle vessel.

7. If  black soot forms on the candle vessel, when cool wipe off with dry paper towel.

8.Always store your candle after use and when  cooled with the lid on to protect the fragrance and dust formulating on the wax.

We hope you enjoy your candle products !
