PRODUCT CARE

Here are a few tips to help you take care of your home fragrance products.

CANDLE CARE

We use a blended wax with Rapeseed & Coconut Oil (RCX) due to its environmental impact being significantly less than any other wax. This is a natural wax which does not contain any additives or enhancers. Please be aware that it is common for imperfections to appear after burning.

 

To the get the best out of your candle we recommend the following;

​

  • Before each burn pinch off the top of the wick to avoid black residue spreading onto the surface.

 

  • Minimum burn time: 1 hour is recommended or until the wax has melted all the way across the top.

 

  • Keep the flame away from moving air, do your best to avoid burning your candle near windows, fans or heavy trafficked areas, as this can disturb the flame and cause an uneven burn.

 

  • Maximum burn time: No longer than 4 hours.

 

  • Never leave your candle lit after the wax has melted away as this can cause the container to overheat and explode.

​

  • Always keep out of reach of children

DIFFUSER CARE

  • Room temperatures can alter the performance for your diffuser, higher temperatures can increase the scent throw and speed up use.
 
  • Reed Diffusers usually last between 3 – 4 months, we recommend turning the reeds every 1 - 2 weeks.
 
  • Always use gloves to maintain your diffusers, always wash your hands after handling.

OAK PRODUCT CARE

​

To clean your products, please use wood friendly antibacterial solution only.

Keep away from raw meat products.
