Candle Care

Each Three More Days candle is handmade with as much care possible with every effort made to maintain quality and consistency. To ensure you receive the most out of your burn time, you’ll need to give your candle a little extra care by following the information below:

• Burn your candle for at least 2 hours or until the wax is melted all the way to the glass to prevent an uneven burn, and to imprint the candle memory.
• Always trim your wick to 5mm before lighting your candle to ensure you receive the maximum burn time.
• Allow the candle to cool before relighting, and before cutting the ball at the end of the wick.
• You may notice a ‘mushrooming’ on your wick, regular trimming will prevent this.
• Keep candles away from sunlight and heat sources - candles will lose their scent and may discolour when placed in direct sunlight. When burning many candles together, place them apart to prevent uneven burning.
• Never burn your candle for longer than 4 hours to avoid a larger flame.
• If the candle is creating an uneven burn, simply adjust the wick to the centre of the container or the side that needs more heat.
• Do not leave your candles unattended and placed away from draft, children and pets and always place candles on a heat-resistant base and set on a level stable surface.
• Note it is normal in soy wax for the shade to change in colour and develop a dusty looking layer overtime.
