Amavasya Healing StoreBundjalung Native Essential Oil Candle

For the best experience with your candle:

• The initial burn should be at least one hour, or as long as it takes for the melt pool to cover the entire surface of the candle. This ‘imprinting’ process will encourage an even burn for the candle’s lifetime.
• Following each burn, trim both the wooden and cotton elements of the wick down to approximately 3mm (you can use a wick trimmer, scissors or nail clippers).
• Remove any char from the wick before relighting.
• If the wick is burning poorly or drowning in the melt pool, extinguish the flame, remove some liquid wax by dabbing with a paper towel, then relight the candle.
• A white, frost-like coating may appear on the wax over time due to temperature fluctuations. This natural occurrence, known as frosting, is a sign that no artificial preservatives have been used.

Reusing your candle:

Once your candle is finished, remove the remaining wax:

1. Place the glass jar in the freezer for an hour.
2. Remove the jar and the remaining wax will pop out easily. Alternatively, place the jar in direct sunlight or use a hair dryer to soften the wax.
3. Pull out the wick tab and, using a paper towel, wipe off or pour out any remaining wax.
4. The label can be removed easily by hand with some water. Use tea tree or eucalyptus oil to rub off any glue residue.

The coloured glass is painted on the outside, so it’s not recommended to scratch it with a knife or put it in the dishwasher. Enjoy your new trinket pot, pen holder, planter or whatever you desire.

Compost the wax remains.

Recycle the wick tab, jar, label, lid and box.

• To reduce the risk of fire or injury, always burn on a stable, heat-resistant surface.
• Do not burn for longer than 4 hours at a time, or leave it burning out of sight.
• Keep away from children, pets and flammable materials.
• Avoid strong drafts and direct sunlight.
• Always handle with care, as the glass and wax may be hot even after the candle is extinguished.
• Keep the wick trimmed to 3mm before each burn.
• Discolouration may occur due to organic ingredients. This is no cause for concern, so burn as usual.
