Using Our Candles

At AuraLux, we take pride in creating handcrafted, artistic candles that enhance your space with warmth and beauty. To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience, please follow these important candle care guidelines.

1. Choosing the Right Surface & Enclosure

• Many of our candles do not come in jars, so it is up to you to place them in a heat-resistant dish, tray, or jar to catch melting wax.
• Use a non-flammable, stable surface to prevent heat damage or spills.
• Avoid placing candles directly on wood, fabric, or other sensitive materials.

2. Burning Time & Best Practices

• To prevent overheating and extend the life of your candle, we recommend burning for a maximum of 3 hours at a time.
• Never leave a burning candle unattended or near flammable objects.
• Keep away from drafts, pets, and children.

3. Wick Care & Flame Control

• Trim the wick to ¼ inch before each use to avoid excess soot and ensure a steady, clean burn.
• If the flame becomes too large or flickers excessively, extinguish the candle, let it cool, and trim the wick before relighting.

4. Extinguishing Your Candle

• Use a candle snuffer or gently blow out the flame to prevent wax splatter.
• Allow the wax to fully cool and harden before moving or relighting.

5. General Candle Safety

✔ Burn candles in a well-ventilated area.
✔ Do not burn a candle all the way down—stop using when ½ inch of wax remains.
✔ Never add foreign objects to the wax.

By following these safe burning practices, you can fully enjoy the beauty and craftsmanship of AuraLux while ensuring a safe environment.
