WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO USE MY ORGASMIC HEALING LLC CANDLE?

Because our wood wick candles are unique, they can occasionally display different burning characteristics than other candles. Here are a few simple steps to ensure the best burn every time:

  • Light the wick all the way across, not just on one end. This helps the candle to burn evenly.
  • Allow the candle to burn until the wax melts out to all the edges of the vessel. This may take about 30 to 60 minutes. The flame height may vary at times and occasionally even appear to self-extinguish, but it's OK. Even if you are experiencing a “low” flame, it will continue to heat and the flame height will return. The recommended burn time is 3-4 hours.
  • Keep the candle away from drafts, such as ceiling fans, air conditioners or breezes.
  • Never move or handle the candle while burning. This is very unsafe, and pouring or removing liquid wax from the vessel will cause the wick to extinguish.
  • Keep the wick trimmed to ¼ inch. If the candle begins to smoke, or if the flame height is greater than 1½ inches, gently blow out the candle, allow the wick and wax to cool, and trim the wick. Remove all wick trimmings before relighting.
  • For your safety, the candle is designed to self-extinguish when ⅜ inch of wax remains.

 

WHAT IF MY CANDLE STARTS TO TUNNEL?

Tunneling can be caused by a few things and here are some tips to prevent and fix it:

1) Let the candle burn for several hours when first lit. This will allow the whole top layer of the candle to melt out to the very edges. This will also form a ‘memory’ melt the next time you light the candle.

2) Never burn your candle underneath a ceiling fan or drafty area.

3) If your candle has already tunneled, make your candle a tin foil hat with a small hole on the top. This will allow heat to radiate down and melt the edge wax. In most cases, the wax will melt to the edges within 15 - 30 minutes with the foil. When removing the foil hat, remember it will be hot and may burn you. CLICK HERE to view a short video we found to give you an example of how to fix your candle with foil.
