1.  Candle care & Safety 


• Remove all packaging and discard prior to lighting.
• Always burn candle within sight, never leave a burning candle unattended.
• Before lighting trim your wick to 1/2 inch.
• Always Remove any debris from around the flame. This includes gold leaf.
• Always burn candles in an appropriate heat proof container, and also on a protected, non-combustible, heat-resistant, level surface.
• If you purchased a candle with gold leaf, make sure to keep gold leaf clear of flame.
• Keep the wax pool free of wick trimmings or anything that may present a fire hazard.
• Keep away from children, pets, or anything that could cause the candle to tip or fall.
• Always keep candles away from anything that can catch fire.
• Keep your candle in a draft-free area, away from fans, vibration, wind or anything that could present a fire hazard.
• Extinguish a candle with a high or flickering flame. This is a definite fire hazard. Safely extinguish the flame, let the candle cool. Trim the wick and inspect your home for any drafts before relighting.
• Never extinguish candles with water. Water can cause hot wax to splatter and may cause glass containers to break.

• Never use candles as a night light. Use extreme caution during power outages.

• Never touch or move a burning candle, or melted wax.

• When creating decorative arrangements, candles should be set out at a distance of at least 4 inches apart to prevent burn problems.
 
 

2. Wax Melt Care & Safety

The Repose Comforts Wax Melts consist of sustainable soy blend wax and essential &/or fragrance oil.  My wax melts are suitable for use in tea light burners and electric burners. 

How to use

  • Remove from packaging, break off or choose appropriate size for chosen burner
  • Place into burner properly.  As the well heats up the wax will begin to warm up and melt, releasing delectable aromas into your home.
  • When the tea light has been extinguished or the burner turned off, the wax will re-harden ready for next use.
  • Unlike candles, wax melts do not evaporate.  You can continue to use the wax multiple times, until all the smelly goodness is gone. Usually about 3-5 uses.
  • When finished with the melts, the best way to remove wax is to wait until melted, then use a cotton ball to absorb wax. Also heating up wax slightly and popping out the disk works well. Dispose these into the trash bin.

 

 

Important Stuff

 

  • Always use within sight. Never leave unattended!
  • Always ensure that you do not overfill your bowl!
  • Always keep flame & melted wax away from pets, children, open windows, fans, vibrations, or anything that could cause it to tip or be of danger.
  • Do not eat! EVER! yuck..
  • Never pour melted wax down sinks or any pipes. 
  • Caution: Wax & burner will remain hot after the tea light has been  extinguished / burner switched off!
  • Do not try to move the burner until it has cooled completely and the wax has hardened! Never handle hot wax!
  • Do not add water or fragrance oils to wax melt well or wax!
  • Keep wax clear of debris!
  • Only ever use unscented tea lights as fragrance ones burn too hot.
  • Only use standard sized 4hr tea lights.  Never use the larger 8hr tea lights or multiples as these can cause the burners to break. Only melt wax 4 hours at a time, allow a little break so warmer doesn't get too hot.
  • Never place burner in freezer to help dislodge wax.  This can weaken structure of the burner.
  • Ensure that the surface under the burner is heatproof. Never melt in container or surface that is not heat proof. 

 

3. Shower Steamers

 

instructions for use: 

 

- Place shower steamer on the floor, or shelf of your shower.

- Turn shower on & let water quickly pass over steamer. This will activate it and it will start to bubble similar to a bath bomb. 

 TIPS:

- Don't put your steamer somewhere where the water is gonna be hitting it constantly. the water will quickly wash away the steamer before it can reach its full potential.

- The more steam your shower is making the more you'll smell your steamers. So make sure your water is a nice tolerably hot temp. 

 

Safety: 

NOT EDIBLE!

Keep out of reach of children! Choking hazard!! Packaging contains plastic!  Discontinue use if any irritation occurs. 

Keep container in a dry place. Do NOT eat.
