Are you a candle junkie? Do you treat your candles as they deserve? When we met Almira last month, we didn’t love just her passion – you can truly see how much she loves what she does – but also hows she goes beyond on a topic most of us haven’t really thought about, candle care.

Now that self-care is at its peak; we wanted to share her recommendations to ensure the longevity of your LUMIRA candles and some candle care maintenance tips.

  • Prior to lighting your LUMIRA candle, diffuse some room spray in your space until the candle’s scent begins to throw.
  • To ensure an even and smoke-free burn, the wick should be trimmed to a length of 5mm each time before lighting. Candles should never be left burning unattended and discontinue when 10mm of wax remains to prevent cracking.
  • In order to get the most out of your LUMIRA candle, burn it until the entire surface of the candle melts. Wax has memory, it will follow the first burn so make sure not to extinguish the candle until the whole surface has melted.
  • To preserve the fragrance, do not burn your candle for more than four hours at a time and use our LUMIRA Snuffer to extinguish the flame so that there is no smoke created.

To ensure your candle burns evenly each time, make sure to trim the wick to about 3-5mm prior to burning. If you leave your candle burning longer than four hours, extinguish the flame, trim the wick and then re-light it. We recommend using our LUMIRA Wick Trimmer, Almira said.

Do not leave a candle burning unattended. Keep away from children, curtains and pets.

Always protect the table or surface on which the candle rests.

To repurpose your vessel:  Once there is 10mm of wax in the vessel, place in the freezer for 15-20 minutes and the wax will pop up out its own.  Wipe the inside of the vessel and repurpose with beauty brushes, pens and more.

Now is your turn to enjoy even more of your candles and upgrade your self-care routine to its finest!
