Candle Safety Advice
At Pure Luxury Candles, we want to ensure that all of our customers are safe when using our products.

We absolutely love the atmosphere of a burning candle. But we should remember that they are still a naked flame. So, when using one of our candles, always ensure you follow these simple safety guidelines:
Always keep a burning candle in sight
Ensure candles are fully extinguished when leaving a room and before going to sleep
Never burn candles on or near anything flammable (furniture, curtains, bedding etc)
Keep burning candles out of reach of children and pets
Ensure that candles are placed on heat resistant surfaces
Do not burn a candle for longer than 3 hours
Keep burning candles away from drafts, ceiling fans and air currents
Always burn candles in a well ventilated area
Never touch or move a burning candle (or one that has recently been extinguished)
Do not burn a candle all the way to the bottom, leave at least 1cm of wax at the bottom
Do not light if the glass holder is damaged or cracked
Place burning candles at least 3 inches apart from one another
Always use a snuffer to extinguish a candle
Never extinguish candles with water or any other liquid
Be very careful if using candles during a power cut, torches are a safer source of light
If the flame becomes too high, extinguish the candle immediately. If this happens, leave to cool and trim the wick before re-lighting
Never use a candle as a night light
Never light a candle under a shelf or with items above it
Always double check that candles have been fully extinguished
