BENEFITS OF 100% BEESWAX CANDLES
Clean Burning - Beeswax candles burn cleanly with little to no soot, reducing indoor air pollution. They are an excellent choice for individuals with allergies or sensitivities to artificial scents.
Long Burning Time - Beeswax candles have a longer burn time compared to paraffin or soy candles. The slow burn ensures your customers can enjoy the candle for an extended period.
Non-Toxic and Hypoallergenic - Beeswax is a natural, renewable resource, and burning it does not release harmful toxins. Hypoallergenic properties make these candles a great choice for those with allergies or asthma.
Negative Ion Emission - Beeswax candles release negative ions when burned, which can help improve air quality by neutralizing pollutants.
Drip-Resistant - Beeswax has a high melting point, making these candles drip-resistant and reducing mess.
Environmentally Friendly - Beeswax is a sustainable resource, and its production supports beekeeping, vital for pollination. The candles are biodegradable, leaving a minimal environmental footprint.
CANDLE CARE & BURN INSTRUCTIONS
Burning a candle may seem simple, but getting the most out of your new beeswax candle involves a few key tips:
Trim the Wick:
Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before lighting to remove carbon build-up and ensure an even flame. This prevents uneven burning and soot production.Burn Time:
Burn your candle for 1 hour for every inch in diameter. The initial burn should last 3-4 hours until the liquid wax pool almost reaches the edge. Subsequent burns should match the candle's diameter in hours.Taper Candles Exception:
Taper candles with narrow diameters can be burned for varying durations.Avoid Short Burns:
Burning for short periods causes tunneling around the wick. Ensure the liquid wax pool reaches the edge for an even burn.Drafts and Wicks:
Position candles away from drafts and vents to maintain a straight, calm flame. Trim wicks if necessary.Extinguish Properly:
Use a wick dipper or candle lid to put out cotton wicks without smoke. For wooden wicks, a candle snuffer or loosely covering the flame with the lid works well.Cracked Beeswax:
Cracks in pure beeswax are natural due to its density and cooling properties. These cracks fill in with liquid wax upon relighting and don't impact the candle's burn.Unique Composition: Each beeswax candle is unique, influenced by the flowers from which bees gather pollen and nectar. Embrace the nature of pure beeswax for a truly hypoallergenic and long-burning experience.
SAFETY FIRST
- Never burn a candle that is not within sight.
- Keep burning candles away from drafts, vents, ceiling fans and air currents.
