To help you make the most of your candles and reed diffusers we've pulled together some care tips.
Sure, you might think it’s just a candle and there's nothing to it, right? However, in order to maximise your candles there’s a few measures you can take to prevent the dreaded lopsided burn and sooty glass.
To help gorgeous Katie Loxton candles live the life they deserve we recommend following these best care practices:
- Trim wick to 5mm before lighting each time. 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
- Always snuff out the flame, do not blow it out.
- To ensure the wax burns evenly, burn for a minimum of 2 hours and a maximum of 4 hours. 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'.
- Never leave a burning candle or reed diffuser unattended.
- Be sure to turn the reeds of your diffuser on a regular basis. This will generate a scent boost!
- Please take note of product label before use.
- Burn candles and set reed diffusers out of reach of children and pets.

How to Tell if Your Candle is Burning Properly...
Efficient burning means flame is not flickering, teardrop shaped and upright. You can tell if your candle is burning properly by extinguishing a candle; if it smokes, flickers, or the flame becomes too high. These signs indicate the candle is not burning properly and the flame isn't controlled. Let the candle cool, trim the wick, then check for drafts before re-lighting.
