How do i get the best burn and scent throw from my Thistle & Glow candle?

• First burn: Let the melt pool reach the edges of the candle jar, we recommend 2-4 hours.
• Trim the wick between each use to around 1/2cm before each burn to prevent mushrooming and soot.
• Burn for between 2-4 hours at a time.
• Keep away from drafts and heat sources to ensure an even burn.

What can i do if my candle tunnels, mushrooms or soots?

• To prevent tunnelling, let your candle burn long enough to fully melt to the edge of the candle. If tunnelling has started, a longer supervised burn is advised to help level the wax out.
• If your candle begins to soot and your flame is too high, this is due to the length of the wick being too long. Make sure to trim your candle wick to 1/2cm in length before each burn.

Is it safe to burn my Thistle & Glow candle to the bottom of the jar?

For safety reasons you can stop burning your candle until there is about 1cm of wax left at the bottom to avoid damaging the surface. However our Thistle & Glow candles all come with a silver lid which can be doubled as a candle coaster.

Basic Safety Measures
