Candle Safety

Candle Safety Advisory

Your safety is our top priority. Please take a moment to read these important guidelines to ensure a safe and enjoyable candle-burning experience:

 

  • Do not burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time. Allow the wax to cool and reset completely before relighting.

  • Always place candles on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from drafts, flammable materials, or anything that may tip over.

  • Never leave a burning candle unattended. Extinguish all flames before leaving the room or going to sleep.

  • Keep candles out of reach of children and pets to prevent accidents or injuries.

  • Trim the wick to ¼ inch before each burn to promote a steady flame and minimize soot or mushrooming.

  • Ensure the wax pool is free of debris like matches or wick trimmings to avoid flaring or uneven burning.

 

At Silk Candles, all of our products are crafted with care and comply with U.S. candle safety standards (ASTM F2417) for flame height, container stability, and self-extinguishing performance.

 

✨ Thank you for burning responsibly and safely. Enjoy the glow!
