FAQs

Are these candles dripless?

While these candles are designed for a clean burn, environmental factors like drafts can still cause wax to drip. Always use a proper holder.

Can I use these candles outdoors?

They are designed primarily for indoor use. Wind will likely cause them to burn unevenly or drip.

How do I extinguish the candle safely?

Use a candle snuffer to avoid blowing hot wax, or carefully submerge the wick in the melted wax pool using a metal tool and pull it back up.

How should I store these candles?

Store them flat in a cool, dark, and dry area to maintain their shape and prevent the wax from softening.

What is the best way to clean wax off a holder?

You can place the holder in the freezer for a few hours, allowing the wax to harden and pop off easily.

Troubleshooting

Candle is dripping excessively

Ensure the candle is standing perfectly upright and is not exposed to drafts from windows, fans, or air conditioning vents.

Flame is too high or flickering

Extinguish the candle and trim the wick to about 6mm, then relight it in a draft-free environment.

Candle wobbles in the holder

Use a small amount of candle adhesive or melt a small drop of wax into the base of the holder to secure the candle in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up these candles, ensure you use a compatible taper candle holder that fits the base width securely to prevent wobbling. When lighting, use a long-reach lighter to keep your fingers safely away from the wick. For care, keep the wick trimmed to approximately 6mm before each use to ensure a clean, steady flame. Always store your candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent warping or discoloration. Never leave a burning candle unattended and ensure it is fully extinguished before leaving the room.
