Instructions & Safety

Luminescent Powder candles are simple to create and safer than traditional candles once used correctly. Here's how to use your Luminescent Powder to create your own candle.

Begin by selecting your favorite container and gently pour the powder into it. For the best experience, choose a fireproof vessel—one that's sturdy and wide enough to maintain a safe distance between the melt pool and the container’s edges. Ideally, the container should have a minimum width of 4 inches at its narrowest point to ensure the heat remains contained. As you light the flame, pay close attention to how the container reacts, ensuring it remains cool to the touch while the powder burns, so you can enjoy your creation safely and beautifully.

To create a perfect burn, carefully insert the wick into the powder, ensuring that only a 1/4" tip peeks out—just enough to catch the flame. Extending it further may cause the wick to burn too quickly, shortening the candle's life. For optimal results, surround the wick with at least 2 inches of powder. This will protect the melt pool from spreading to the edge of the container or any decorative elements you choose to include. If your container is larger, consider using multiple wicks, or trim the wicks shorter for a more compact setup. We advise leaving at least 1 inch of powder beneath the wick, allowing it to self-extinguish gracefully before it reaches the container's base.

Step into a world of warm, inviting glow with Luminescent. Once your candle is lit, let its gentle, plant-based flame fill your space with clean, comforting light, safe for both you and your beloved pets. But why stop there? Unleash your creativity by adorning your candle with thoughtful touches—perhaps a sprinkle of natural elements or a carefully placed trinket.

Just remember, for the safest burn, keep all decorations at least two inches from the wick.

Safety

In the enchanting glow of a Luminescent Candle, safety is paramount. Crafted with care, these candles offer a safer alternative to traditional flames, provided they are used with wisdom.

To ensure the best experience, it is vital to keep the wick away from the edges and base of the container. Imagine a protective cushion—at least 2 inches of powder surrounding the wick in a container no less than 4 inches wide, and a 1-inch layer beneath. This thoughtful arrangement allows the flame to naturally extinguish itself once the wick has burned through, preventing the container from overheating. Even if the candle is accidentally tipped, the flame will flicker out harmlessly.

However, like all things beautiful, a Luminescent Candle requires respect. Always remember:

1. Never place your candle near anything that might catch fire.
2. Keep it out of reach of curious children and playful pets.
3. Shield it from drafts and other flammable objects.

Our Scent-Free Luminescent Candles are pure, naturally odorless, and elegant in their simplicity. If you wish to add a fragrance, a few drops of compatible oil placed near the wick *before* lighting can enhance the experience. But tread carefully—some oils are more suited than others, so experiment gently and avoid adding any oils to a burning candle, as they are highly flammable. Remember, any modifications such as adding color or scent are at your own risk.

Luminescent Powder, though plant-based and non-toxic, are not to be consumed. Take care to keep them away from your eyes to avoid irritation.

At its heart, a Luminescent Candle is still real fire—a timeless element that commands respect. Please review and follow all safety instructions provided in the box. Use with care and let the gentle, safe glow of Luminescent light up your world.
