Candle Care

It is our desire at HIVE Fragrance Studio to produce a superior "scensory" experience.

Ultimately, our fragrances are designed to enhance your environment by infusing

love, luxury and well-being in every aspect of your life.

We are devoted to creating a spark, evoking a memory or creating a new one.

​

We recommend the following to extend the enjoyment of your fragrance and the feeling it will bring to your environment.

  • Never leave a burning candle unattended.

  • Never burn a candle on or near anything that might catch fire.

  • Keep candles out of the reach of children on two or four legs.

​

BURNING A HIVE CANDLE PROPERLY
BEFORE USE

  • Trim the wick to 1/8 inch each time before burning. The safest way to do this is with a wick trimmer. Trimming will alleviate uneven burning, dripping or flaring.

  • Burn candles in a well-ventilated room.

  • Place the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from a drafts or air currents.

  • Keep the wax pool clear of debris, always.

​

WHILE ENJOYING

  • Never touch or move a burning candle or when the wax is liquefied.

  • Discontinue burning a candle when 1/2 inch of wax remains.

  • Extinguish a candle if the flame becomes too high or flickers repeatedly. Allow the candle to cool, trim the wick and clear the wax pool of debris before relighting.

  • Always keep the candle within your sight.

​

WHEN EXTINGUISHING

  • Use a candle snuffer to extinguish your candle. Blowing may cause wax to splatter.

  • Never use water to extinguish a candle. Water can cause the hot wax to splatter and might break your candle vessel.

  • Make sure the candle is completely out and the wick is no longer glowing before leaving the room.

  • Don’t touch or move the candle until it has completely cooled.

​

WICK TRIMMING

  • Keep wick trimmed to 1/8 inch always.

  • Trim at a 45-degree angle to ensure proper wick length. (Short wicks burn improperly)

  • The wick should be trimmed every 4 hours of burn time.

  • Discard the remnant wick before lighting.

  • It is recommended that our candles burn for four hours, then extinguished and allowed to cool for two hours before relighting.
