TRIM THE WICK

Always trim the wick to ¼ inch before lighting to ensure a clean, even burn and prevent soot.

BURN EVENLY

Allow the wax to melt across the entire surface during the first burn to prevent tunneling and maximize your candle's life.

STAY SAFE

Always burn your candle on a heat-resistant surface, away from drafts, flammable objects, children, and pets. Never leave a candle unattended.

EXTINGUISH + REPURPOSE

Use a snuffer or gently blow out the flame, and discontinue use when ¼ inch of wax remains. Repurpose the vessel for storage or décor!

These simple steps help you enjoy your ILLUME candles safely and beautifully.

We use a sustainably sourced, vegan wax blend in our candles. This blend contains a majority of soy wax with a variety of other plant waxes. We use a blend of waxes to ensure a high quality fragrance.

Our blend is a proprietary formula that we cannot share.
