Candle Care Guide
At Room No.5, each candle is thoughtfully hand-poured to create a warm, luxurious atmosphere in your space. Proper candle care will help you enjoy the best scent experience, longer burn time, and cleaner performance from your candle.
First Burn Matters
The first burn sets the memory of your candle. Allow your candle to burn until the entire top layer of wax has melted evenly to the edges of the container.
This usually takes 2–3 hours depending on the candle size.
This prevents tunneling and ensures your candle burns evenly for the rest of its life.
Trim the Wick
Before each burn, trim the wick to ¼ inch.
Keeping the wick trimmed helps:
- Prevent excessive smoke
- Maintain a steady flame
- Extend the life of your candle
- Prevent soot from forming on the container
If the wick becomes too long, the flame may burn too hot and cause uneven melting.
Burn Time
For best results, burn your candle for 2–4 hours at a time.
Burning longer than recommended may cause:
- The wick to mushroom
- Excess heat in the container
- Faster wax consumption
Allow the candle to cool completely before relighting.
Keep the Wax Clean
Always keep the wax pool free from:
- Wick trimmings
- Matches
- Dust or debris
Foreign objects in the wax can affect how the candle burns.
Candle Safety
To ensure safe use:
- Never leave a burning candle unattended
- Keep candles away from drafts
- Place on a stable, heat-resistant surface
- Keep away from children and pets
- Stop burning when ½ inch of wax remains
Storage Tips
To maintain fragrance quality, store your candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This helps preserve the scent and prevents discoloration.
Pro Tip for the Best Experience
Lighting your Room No.5 candle during moments of relaxation—after a long day, during self-care routines, or while
winding down for the evening—helps create the calm, luxurious atmosphere the brand was designed for.
