Candle Safety

How to love your Rekindle candle

Please read the safety instructions on the base of the candle before use.

For best performance of your Rekindle candle:

  • Ensure you trim the wick before every use (to around 6mm), including the first time you burn the candle. This will help prevent soot from forming.

  • Re-centre the wick after each use whilst the wax is warm to prevent it from shifting. This will also ensure a slow and even burn each time.

  • Burn the candle for a minimum of 1-2 hours the first time to prevent tunnelling of the wax (as soy wax retains memory). Allow the wax pool to reach the edge of the candle vessel each time you burn it to prevent tunnelling.

  • Do not burn the candle for more than 3 hours at a time to ensure the candle does not overheat and the wick does not burn too quickly, causing it to 'mushroom'.

  • Do not burn the candle once there is only 10mm of wax left.

  • Use a candle snuffler or blow gently to extinguish flames.

Candle safety

  • Always light the candle on a stable and heat resistant surface.

  • Do not move burning candles. The candle vessel will become hot when burning.

  • Do not pour water or any other substance into the candle.

  • Do not leave lit candles unattended.
