At Indulge In A Scent, your safety is our priority. To ensure a beautiful and safe experience with our hand-poured candles, please follow these guidelines:
1. General Safety Warnings
WARNING: TO PREVENT FIRE AND SERIOUS INJURY
• Burn within sight. Never leave a burning candle unattended.
• Keep away from combustibles. Never burn a candle on or near anything that can catch fire.
• Keep away from children and pets. Store and burn candles out of reach of children and animals.
2. Prior to Lighting
• Trim the Wick: Always trim your wick to 1/4 inch before every burn. This prevents smoking and ensures an even burn.
• Check the Surroundings: Place your candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from drafts, open windows, ceiling fans, and flammable objects (like curtains or books).
3. During the Burn
• Never Leave Unattended: Always keep an eye on your candle. Extinguish it before leaving the room or going to sleep.
• Avoid Drafts: Drafts can cause uneven burning, smoking, or even cause the flame to flare up.
• Burn Time: Do not burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time.
• Keep Away: Keep candles out of reach of children and pets.
• Don’t Touch: Never touch or move a burning candle or one where the wax is still liquid.
4. Extinguishing the Flame
• Use a Snuffer: We recommend using a candle snuffer to extinguish your candle to prevent wax from splattering.
• Check the Flame: Ensure the flame is completely out and the wick is no longer glowing before leaving the candle.
• Safety Margin: Discontinue use when only 1/2 inch of wax remains in the bottom of the jar. Burning past this point can cause the glass to overheat and crack.
5. Product End-of-Life
• Discontinue Use: Stop burning the candle when only 1/2 inch (1.27cm) of wax remains in the bottom of the vessel. Burning beyond this point increases the risk of the glass overheating and breaking.
• Vessel Upcycling: Once the candle is finished, the vessel may be cleaned and repurposed for non-food use.
6. Limitation of Liability
Indulge In A Scent, LLC is not responsible for any damage or injury caused by misuse or failure to follow these safety instructions.
