Taking Care of Christobell Candles
The first burn is very important
When you light your Candle for the first time always allow the Wax to burn so that it melts across the entire surface to the edges and pools to the edges of the Container. This will effectively assist in preventing tunnelling and help promote an even burn for the duration of the Candles life.
Avoid light and hot temperatures
Candle waxes and fragrances are sensitive to both temperature and light try to be careful when storing Candles. Try to always store your Candles in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight
Keep your Wick trimmed

Try to ensure you’re your Wick is kept to 5mill long at all times. We recommend trimming the Wick every three hours of burn time. When trimming, always extinguish the flame, let the Candle cool down to room temperature, remove any Wick debris and trim the Wick before relighting
Follow the half inch Wax rule
Once wax falls below half an inch (1.27 cms) discontinue use. The container can heat up when the flame nears the base of the Jar and there is not much remaining Wax. Following this rule will help prevent heat damage to the Container and the surface surrounding the Candle
Putting out your Candle

Try to always use a proper Candle Snuffer to extinguish your Candles as this will prevent the Wick from moving and the Wax form spilling. This will also assist maximising your burn time
