Candle Care
Luxury should always burn beautifully — and safely.
At Puff & Blow, every candle is crafted to elevate your wellbeing and your space. To ensure your experience is both indulgent and safe, follow our simple guide to caring for your candle with intention.
🕯️ How to Burn a Candle Safely
-
Never leave a burning candle unattended. Always extinguish your candle before leaving the room.
-
Keep candles away from anything flammable — curtains, books, bedding, or paper.
-
Always keep candles out of the reach of children and pets.
-
Place your candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface that can contain any wax drips.
-
Avoid burning near drafts, vents, or open windows to prevent uneven flames or smoke.
-
Do not touch or move your candle while it’s lit or while the wax is still liquid.
-
Stop burning when about 1 cm of wax remains — burning beyond this can overheat the vessel.
-
Extinguish your candle gently using a snuffer or wick dipper — never use water.
✨ How to Get the Best Burn
-
Trim the wick to 6 mm (¼ inch) before each burn to ensure a clean, even flame.
-
On the first burn, allow the wax to melt completely to the edges to prevent tunnelling.
-
Limit each burn to 3–4 hours for optimal performance and to preserve fragrance quality.
-
Keep the wax pool clear of wick trimmings, matches, or debris.
-
If the flame flickers or smokes, extinguish the candle, let it cool, trim the wick, and relight.
-
Store your candle in a cool, dry place away from sunlight to preserve its natural scent and form.
🌿 Sustainable Luxury & Wellbeing
Every Puff & Blow candle is hand-poured, vegan, and crafted from natural, eco-friendly ingredients. Our clean burns are free from harmful additives and toxins — because true luxury should never compromise your health or the planet.
