#4 How to enjoy your candles safely and comfortably

Candles can bring a small moment of "resetting time" into your daily life.
Simply by savoring the flame and scent with all five senses, your daily rhythm naturally adjusts, leading to a peaceful time for both mind and body.
To help you enjoy such wonderful daily moments safely and pleasantly with ESSU candles, we've put together some tips.
This time, we will share the correct way to use candles and some small tips for comfortable use.

For Safe Lighting

・Placement
Place on a flat, stable surface, away from wind and vibrations. Do not light near flammable materials such as curtains or paper.

・Preparation before lighting
Straighten the wick and gently light it from the base. Always remove any packaging or stickers.

・During use
Do not leave the candle unattended while lit, and always extinguish it before going to bed. Enjoy in a place out of reach of small children and pets.

・When extinguishing
Do not use water to extinguish; use a snuffer or other tools to extinguish gently.

Tips for Comfortable Use

When lighting for the first time, let the candle burn until the entire surface has melted for a beautiful burn. If you repeatedly light and extinguish the candle for short periods, only the central part of the candle will melt and form a hollow, making it difficult to return to its original state.

If the flame is too large or produces soot, extinguish the flame and trim the wick to 3-5mm. It is recommended to keep the wick of an aroma candle at a length of about 1-2cm from the base of the wick.

After use, cover the candle with a lid or cloth to prevent dust from entering, which helps the scent last longer. ESSU products come with a transparent lid that can be used even after the candle has been used.

We hope you can enjoy your time with candles in your own relaxed way, cherishing these small tips.
