Candle Aftercare Instructions


Extend the life of your flame. Protect your space. Honor the experience.

Upon Purchase & Each Use

Trim the Wick:
Before each burn, trim the wick to ¼ inch to ensure a clean, even flame and to prevent soot or mushrooming.

First Burn Matters:
Allow the wax to melt fully to the edges of the vessel (approximately 2–3 hours) during the first burn. This helps prevent tunneling and promotes an even melt pool.

Burn Time

Burn Time:
Do not burn your Alias Los Angeles™ candle for more than 4 hours at a time. Extinguish, let cool, and trim before relighting.

Stay Safe:
Always place your candle on a heat-resistant surface, away from drafts, flammable items, and out of reach of children and pets. Never leave a burning candle unattended.

Reuse With Intention

Extinguishing the Flame:
For a smoke-free experience, use a candle snuffer to extinguish the flame. Avoid blowing out the candle, as this can disturb the wax and create excess smoke.

Once your candle has burned down to ½ inch of wax, discontinue use. Clean the vessel and repurpose it—each one is designed to live beautifully beyond the burn.
