Extend the life of your French Lotus candles
Discover how to get the most from your French Lotus candles with our essential care guide. Learn simple habits for a cleaner burn, enhanced scent, and lasting enjoyment, ensuring safety and quality every time.
Mastering your first burn
The first burn is crucial for the longevity of your candle. Allow the candle to burn until the entire surface of the wax has melted, reaching the edges of the container. This prevents tunnelling, ensuring a consistent and even burn for future uses, and maximises the life of your French Lotus candle.
Trim your wick every time
Before each burn, trim your candle wick to about 5mm. A trimmed wick ensures a cleaner, brighter flame, reducing soot and preventing excessive flickering. This simple step helps maintain the quality of your French Lotus candle and promotes an optimal scent throw, allowing you to fully enjoy its luxurious fragrance.
Caring for French Lotus fragrances
Our French Lotus candles are crafted with carefully selected fragrance blends for a calm, uplifting atmosphere. While not complex to care for, ensuring a full melt pool and avoiding drafts is especially important for an even scent release. Some delicate fragrance components can be more volatile, so proper care guarantees a consistent scent throw over time.
General candle safety & tips
Avoid common mistakes to get the best experience from every French Lotus candle. Do not burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time, and always place it on a heat-resistant surface away from flammable items, children, and pets. Extinguish the flame gently to prevent debris in the wax, and avoid burning in drafty areas to ensure even melting and a consistent scent.
