Original Rechargeable Candle - Alvearia

Beeswax, propolis and honey contain essential oils, resins and terpene compounds that have a beneficial effect on our body and mood. In addition, the negative ions produced by beeswax neutralize pollutants in the air , purifying it.

The natural wood wick allows the slow combustion of the active ingredients of Alvearia and produces the typical crackling of burning wood. The flame of the wooden wick varies during lighting. Unlike a cotton wick, the natural wood wick creates a more delicate flame ensuring the diffusion of the beneficial effects and the Alvearia fragrance.

During the day, bring the Alvearia experience into the rooms where you stay to help you relax and relieve tension and stress. Turn on Alvearia in the bedroom 30 minutes before bedtime to facilitate sleep and night breathing.

Approximate burning time 30/35 hours.

Wax weight: 150gr.

Ingredients: 100% beeswax, propolis, pollen, honey, honey flavor.

CANDLE CARE (Please read carefully before use)

How to turn on Alvearia

Candles with wooden wicks need more care than the classic cotton wick. It takes longer to absorb the wax and light, so don't give up if the wick doesn't light on the first try, light it again and when the melted wax stretches into the wick you won't have to worry about it burning.

The wooden wick needs to be set alight to burn properly, so when you light it, tilt the candle over the flame of the match or lighter so that the flame itself is in contact with the wick along its entire length.

The first lighting determines the duration of the candle. Alvearia's natural wax has its own memory, a kind of behavioral model: the first time the wax melts determines the way in which the wax will continue to melt, so I recommend that you light Alvearia for the first time only when you are sure that you can dedicate the necessary time to melt over the entire surface area, so that it melts up to the circumference of the container. This means that it will be possible to extinguish the candle when the wax has melted from one edge of the container to the other.

If you blow out the candle prematurely, a crater will form around the wick the next time it burns.

From the second use onwards it is not essential to repeat the procedure, but it is recommended to fully enjoy the benefits of Alvearia, so that the wax can refresh your memory every time.

However, if you leave a candle lit for more than 2/3 hours you risk overheating the wax, burning the fragrances and reducing the overall life of the candle.

It is therefore recommended not to leave the candle lit for more than 3 consecutive hours.

Such prolonged burning often causes the wick to drown in the wax, if this should happen you can try to absorb the wax with a paper tissue so that the wick is long enough for the next lighting.

Caring for Wooden Wick:
Before each lighting, cut or break the wooden wick to a length of about 2.5 mm and clean it from the burnt residues of the previous burning. Wire cutters or nail scissors are excellent for trimming a wooden wick while you can collect the ash with a handkerchief or your fingers. To clean the wick, first let the wax cool and harden.
