Are Votive Candles Safe?

Yes, our votive candles are generally safe to use, but like all candles, they require proper handling and safety precautions to prevent accidents and ensure a safe environment. Here’s a detailed look at how to use our votive candles safely and what precautions to take:

Use the Right Candle Holder

Designed for Votives: Votive candles are designed to be used in specific votive candle holders, which are typically small glass or ceramic containers. These holders contain the melted wax, prevent it from spilling, and protect the flame from drafts. Always use a holder that fits the votive candle snugly to contain the wax effectively.

Heat-Resistant Material: Choose votive candle holders made from heat-resistant materials such as glass, metal, or ceramic. Avoid using holders made from plastic or other materials that could melt or catch fire when exposed to heat.

Keep Candles Away from Flammable Materials

Clear Surroundings: Place our votive candles in an area free from flammable materials like curtains, papers, clothing, or other combustible items. Ensure that the candle is at least a foot away from anything that can catch fire.

Stable Surface: Set the candle holder on a stable, heat-resistant surface to prevent it from tipping over. Ensure the surface is free from vibrations and not prone to being knocked over.

Do Not Leave Burning Candles Unattended

Supervise the Candle: Never leave a burning votive candle unattended, especially in areas where children or pets are present. Always extinguish the candle when leaving the room or going to bed.

Extinguish Properly: We recommend using a candle snuffer to extinguish the flame, which is safer and prevents hot wax from splattering. Blowing out a candle can cause the wick to smolder and release smoke, which may trigger smoke alarms.

Trim the Wick Regularly

Wick Maintenance: Before lighting our votive candle, trim the wick to about 1/4 inch. A long wick can cause the flame to burn too high, creating excessive smoke, soot, and a higher risk of the candle tipping over.

Prevents Soot and Smoke: Trimming the wick reduces the amount of soot produced and helps the candle burn evenly. It also minimizes the risk of a tall flame, which could cause the candle to overheat.

Avoid Burning Candles All the Way Down

Leave Some Wax: Avoid burning votive candles all the way down to the bottom of the holder. Leaving about 1/2 inch of wax at the bottom helps prevent the holder from overheating and cracking, which could cause wax spillage and increase fire risk.

Replace as Needed: When the candle has burned down to about 1/2 inch, extinguish the flame and replace the votive candle with a new one. This helps maintain safety and prevents the holder from becoming damaged.

Keep Away from Drafts

Draft-Free Zone: Avoid placing our votive candles near open windows, fans, air vents, or areas with high foot traffic. Drafts can cause the flame to flicker, which may lead to uneven burning, increased smoke production, and the risk of the candle being blown out, causing hot wax to spill.

Stable Flame: A steady flame ensures that the candle burns evenly and safely, reducing the risk of accidents.

Use Proper Ventilation

Well-Ventilated Area: Burn our votive candles in a well-ventilated area to prevent the buildup of smoke or fumes. This is especially important if multiple candles are being burned at once. Proper ventilation ensures that the air quality remains safe and pleasant.

Avoid Enclosed Spaces: Do not burn our votive candles in enclosed or small spaces, such as closets or confined areas, where there is limited airflow. This reduces the risk of fire hazards and ensures that smoke does not accumulate.

Keep Candles Out of Reach of Children and Pets

Safety First: Place our votive candles in areas that are out of reach of children and pets. Curious hands and paws can easily knock over candles or touch the flame, leading to burns or fire hazards.

Educate Family Members: Teach children about candle safety and the importance of not touching or playing with burning candles.

Are Votive Candles Scented?

Yes, votive candles can be both scented and unscented. Our scented votive candles are quite popular and are widely used to create a pleasant aroma and enhance the ambiance of a space, some of them are also used in massage. Here's a detailed overview of our scented votive candles:

Common essential oils used in our scented votive candles include lavender, Rose and Geranium.

Using Scented Votive Candles

Proper Ventilation: While scented votive candles can enhance a room's ambiance, it's important to ensure proper ventilation. Burning multiple scented candles in a confined space can lead to an overpowering scent, which may cause headaches or respiratory discomfort.

Combine with Other Candles: For a layered and complex scent experience, consider combining different scented votive candles. For example, mixing lavender with Geranium can create a calming and comforting aroma. Just be sure to choose complementary scents to avoid overwhelming the senses.

Use in Appropriate Holders: Always place votive candles in proper votive holders to ensure they burn safely and effectively. Holders help contain the melted wax and maximise the candle's fragrance throw.

Consider the Occasion: Choose from one of our scents that match the mood or occasion. Relaxing scents are perfect for unwinding after a long day, while invigorating scents can help boost energy and focus.

Test Different Scents: If you're new to using scented votive candles, start by trying a variety of scents to see which ones you prefer.

Look for Quality Ingredients: Our votive candles are made with high-quality ingredients, such as natural waxes and pure essential oils. These candles tend to provide a cleaner burn and a more authentic fragrance experience.

How Best To Use Votive Candles?

Our votive candles are a versatile and popular choice for creating ambiance, enhancing home decor, and even complementing skincare routines with their soothing presence and scent. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to use our votive candles effectively and safely to get the most out of them:

Choose the Right Votive Candle Holder

Style and Design: Choose holders that complement your decor and the ambiance you want to create. Our glass holders allow more light to shine through, creating a brighter glow, while colored or frosted holders can diffuse the light for a softer effect.

Placement for Safety and Effect

Stable Surface: Place the votive candle on a stable, flat surface to prevent tipping. Ensure the surface is heat-resistant to avoid damage from the candle holder or the candle's heat.

Away from Flammable Materials: Keep all votive candles away from curtains, paper, and other flammable materials. Ensure there is enough space around the candle to prevent anything from catching fire.

Out of Reach: Position the votive candles where they are out of reach of children and pets to prevent accidental tipping or burns.

Create the Desired Ambiance

Grouping Candles: For a more dramatic effect, group several of our votive candles together. This can create a beautiful centerpiece or focal point on a dining table, mantle, or shelf. Grouping candles can also amplify the light and fragrance, enhancing the room's overall ambiance.

Layering Scents: If using our scented votive candles, consider combining complementary scents to create a unique and inviting aroma.

Strategic Placement: Place our votive candles in areas where you want to draw attention or create a specific mood. For example, placing candles in a bathroom can create a spa-like experience, while candles in the living room can provide a cozy and intimate setting.

Lighting and Extinguishing Votive Candles

Lighting Safely: Use a long match or lighter to light votive candles, especially if they are in deep holders. This helps you light the candle safely without burning your fingers. Avoid using short matches that might cause you to reach into the holder dangerously.

Extinguishing: Use a candle snuffer ideally to extinguish the flame. This method is safer than blowing out the candle, as it reduces the risk of hot wax splattering or embers flying. If you do blow out the candle, do so gently to avoid these risks.

Optimising Burn Time

Burn Long Enough to Melt the Top Layer: When lighting votive candles, let them burn long enough for the top layer of wax to melt completely. This helps prevent tunneling, where only the center of the candle burns, leaving a ring of unused wax around the edges.

Trim the Wick: Before each use, trim the wick to about 1/4 inch. A trimmed wick produces a cleaner burn with less smoke and soot and reduces the risk of the flame becoming too large.

Avoid Drafts: Place votive candles away from drafts or open windows, as drafts can cause uneven burning and flickering. A steady flame burns more evenly and prolongs the candle's life.

Using Votive Candles in Different Settings

Indoors: Our votive candles are perfect for indoor use, creating a cozy, intimate atmosphere. Use them in living rooms, bedrooms, and bathrooms to enhance relaxation and comfort. They are also great for setting the mood during special occasions like dinners, celebrations, or quiet evenings at home.

Outdoors: Our votive candles can be used outdoors in enclosed or sheltered areas, such as patios, porches, or garden lanterns. Ensure they are protected from the wind to prevent the flame from blowing out. Outdoor use can create a warm and inviting atmosphere, ideal for entertaining or relaxing in the evening.

Integrate Votive Candles into Self-Care Routines

During Bath Time: Place votive candles around the bathtub or on the bathroom counter to create a spa-like ambiance. Choose calming scents like lavender or Rose to enhance relaxation. The soft glow and soothing scent can elevate your bathing experience, helping you unwind and destress.

Meditation and Yoga: Use our votive candles during meditation or yoga sessions to create a peaceful environment. The gentle flicker of candlelight can help you focus, while the aroma can enhance the meditative state.

Skincare Routine: Lighting a votive candle while you follow your skincare routine can make the experience more luxurious and calming. Choose a scent that complements your products or adds to the feeling of relaxation, turning your routine into a soothing ritual. Some of our votive candles are suitable for massage.

Maintenance and Care

Replace as Needed: Votive candles typically burn down completely within their holders. Once a candle has burned down to about 1/2 inch of wax, extinguish it and replace it with a new votive. This helps maintain safety and ensures a clean burn.

Use Scented Votive Candles for Aromatherapy

Choose Therapeutic Scents: If using votive candles for aromatherapy and massage, select scents known for their therapeutic benefits. For example, lavender promotes relaxation, and citrus scents can uplift mood and energy levels.

Follow Candle Safety Guidelines

Never Leave Unattended: Never leave a burning votive candle unattended. Always extinguish the flame if you leave the room or go to bed. Candle safety is crucial to prevent fire hazards.

Keep Away from Flammable Objects: Ensure that votive candles are placed away from flammable items, including fabrics, papers, and other combustibles. This helps prevent accidental fires.

Check Local Regulations: In some places, there may be regulations about using candles, especially in commercial or public settings. Always check local guidelines and follow safety recommendations.
