Candle care for the sun and moon round candles is as follows:
The sun and moon candle may be burned as you wish. They do not need to be prepared as the pillar candle does. They have a burn time of approximately 5 hours.
Good candle care also should be taken for the wick. Always keep your candle wick to 5mm before each new lighting so that you get a nice clean burn. When extinguishing gently dip the wick into the melted wax pool, and stand it back up again. This will prime it for your next burn. Thereafter, keep the wick trimmed to 5mm before each use.
It is suggested to burn your candles out of direct breeze, for longevity and brightness.
For safety, always burn your candle on a stable, level, non-flammable, heat resistant surface. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Burn your candle out of reach of children and pets. Avoid drafts. Never burn candles on or near anything flammable. Handle lit flame with care as wax will become hot.
Your flame should burn straight upwards and calmly, not flicker wildly or at a slant. A draft will push your wick to one side, causing the candle to burn unevenly and even drip down one side if left long enough. Position your candle in an area away from vents and open windows to avoid drafts.
If your flame is flickering excessively, your wick may be too long or have too much carbon build-up on the tip. Put out the flame, trim your wick, and re-light it.
Pure beeswax is a very hard, dense wax that shrinks while cooling, and you may find this can lead to cracks in container candles or larger diameter candles if the wax hardens quickly. The crack will fill in with liquid wax when the candle is lit again, and it will not impact the burning of your beautiful candle.
We see these cracks as part of the nature of pure beeswax candles. Being a hard, dense wax can lead to cracks, but it is also the reason why beeswax burns for much longer than any other wax. Instead of using unwanted additives, we embrace this unique property of beeswax as part of having a truly hypoallergenic and long-burning candle.
Every beeswax candle is truly unique.
Like honey, the flowers that the bees have gathered their pollen and nectar from will affect the composition of their beeswax. As a result, beeswax burns very differently from other types of candles. Treat this beeswax candle with care, and it will return the same to you!
