How to use

Learn how to use your handcrafted candles safely and efficiently. Follow these tips to make the most of our products.

  • For the first burn, keep the candle lit for at least 1–2 hours.
  • Do not burn the candle for more than 4 consecutive hours.
  • Keep the wick centered and trimmed, removing the burned portion after each use, leaving about 0.5 cm.
  • Always burn the candle under supervision, on a flat, smooth, heat-resistant surface, away from flammable materials, and out of reach of children and pets.
  • Take safety measures when lighting candles. Keep them away from flammable objects and avoid moving them while lit. Be cautious when lighting and extinguishing the flame.
  • Place the candle in a well-ventilated area and ensure there is at least 90 cm between the flame and any surface above it. If you’re burning more than one candle in the same space, keep a safe distance between them to avoid contact and intense flames.
  • Check for drafts, such as open windows, and avoid placing the candle near them. If needed, close the window or move the candle to a sheltered spot. Do not leave the candle in direct sunlight.
  • Always keep the candle in sight and never leave it unattended while burning.

I hope these tips help ensure the safe use and optimal enjoyment of By Madame Nina’s handcrafted candles.
