Candle & Diffuser Care

Candle Care

Ensuring the safe and proper use of Ethel & Co candles is our number one priority and we advise you follow the below steps. 

  • First time you burn your candle from new, make sure the wax melts all the way to the container edges.  this will prevent future candle tunneling.
  • Never leave a burning candle unattended.
  • Never burn a candle for longer than 4 hours at a time.
  • Burn candle out of reach of children and pets.
  • Always leave at least 10cm between burning candles.
  • Do not burn candles on or near anything that can catch fire.
  • Do not place candles in a draught.
  • Trim wick to 5mm every time before lighting.
  • Candles should be placed on a heat resistant plate.
  • Don’t burn a candle all the way down. We recommend leaving at least 5mm of wax in the bottom of the container.
  • Always snuff out the candle. Do not blow out.
  • Keep the wax pool clear and clear of matches and other debris to avoid flaring.

Diffuser Care

Ensuring the safe and proper use of Ethel & Co diffusers is our number one priority and we advise you follow the below steps. 

  • Place your reeds in the fragrance oil & allow them to rest for 1 hour.  you should begin to see the reeds absorbing the oil.
  • Flip the reeds as this speeds up the diffusing through the entire reed.
  • Be sure to place your diffuser in a safe location away from children & pets where it can be potentially knocked over.
  • Keep away from electrical appliances & naked flames.
  • Do not attempt to light your reeds with a naked flame.
