To ensure the best performance possible in your candle range, our candle fragrance oils are designed and developed in Sydney, Australia and are completely vegan and cruelty-free. As the are produced specifically as a candle making and soap making supply, they are synthetic in substance to ensure the best performance when used in soy wax. Many of our fragrance oils do contain a high percentage of essential oils for an accurate and natural scent. Silk fragrance oils are non-toxic and do not contain palm oil.
THE FIRST BURN - When lighting for the first time, burn the candle until wax melts across the entire surface up to the sides of vessel as this will prevent tunnelling, and create an even burn for the duration of the candle’s ‘life’. This may take up to 2-4 hours, but we promise it will make your candle last longer.
TRIM YOUR WICKS - We recommend trimming your wick before every lighting. The wick only needs to be approximately 6mm in length, keeping it this length will avoid mushrooming which can result in unnecessary soot. This also controls the size of the flame allowing you to get the most time out of your candle
KEEP THE WAX CLEAN - Keep the wax pool free of wick trimmings, matches and debris at all times
HOW TO EXTINGUISH A CANDLE - Extinguish candle with a snuffer, or dip the wick into the melted wax and then straighten wick to prevent smoking and also prevent hot wax from splattering. Do not blow out.
KEEP AWAY FROM WINDY SPACES - Draughts decrease burn time, cause uneven burning, smoking and diminished scent throw.
HOW TO STORE CANDLES - Always store your candles in a cool, dark and dry place. Scented candles also look great stored under a glass cloche, which also protects from dust.
