Care & Fragrance Notes
Stellar Candle Care
A refined guide to help you enjoy your MachMoon candles safely, beautifully, and with their full celestial aroma.
The Flame Ritual (Burning Instructions)
1. Trim Before You Ignite
Before each burn, trim the wick to ¼ inch to ensure a steady flame, minimal soot, and an even melt.
2. Let It Pool
Allow the candle to burn until the top layer of wax melts edge to edge. This prevents tunneling and creates the perfect, even glow.
3. The 4-Hour Rule
Never burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time. Extinguish, cool, and relight for the cleanest burn.
4. Safe Extinguishing
Use a snuffer, not the lid. This keeps smoke low and preserves the candle’s fragrance integrity.
Candle Safety Essentials
Heat-Resistant Surface
Always place your candle on a stable, heat-safe surface — never directly on wood or fabric.
Keep Away From Drafts
Airflow can cause the flame to flicker, smoke, or burn unevenly.
Stay Within Sight
Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep away from pets, children, and flammable materials.
Stop at ½ Inch
Once ½ inch of wax remains, discontinue use for safety.

How to Make Your Candle Last Longer
Store with Care
Keep your candle covered or in a dust-free place to preserve the wax and wick.
Rotate Your Candle
Turn the candle 180° every few burns to help it melt evenly in rooms with subtle drafts.
Use the Right Accessories
A wick trimmer, snuffer, and ceramic plate elevate both safety and style.
