Top Tips for Caring for Your Aromatherapy Candles and Diffusers

Aromatherapy candles and diffusers can transform your space into a calming sanctuary, but to get the best experience and longest use from them, proper care is key. Here are our top tips to keep your candles burning bright and your diffusers smelling fresh.

Why Proper Care Matters

Taking good care of your aromatherapy products not only enhances their scent and lifespan but also ensures safety and a better overall experience. Small habits can make a big difference!

Candle Care Tips

  • Trim the Wick

    Before every burn, trim your candle wick to about ¼ inch. This prevents excessive smoke, uneven burning, and soot buildup.

  • Burn Time

    For the best scent throw and to avoid tunneling, burn your candle for at least 2-3 hours at a time. This allows the wax to melt evenly.

  • Avoid Drafts

    Keep your candle away from fans, air conditioners, or open windows. Drafts cause uneven burning and flickering flames.

  • Keep the Wax Pool Clean

    Remove debris like wick trimmings or matches from the melted wax pool to prevent flare-ups or unpleasant odors.


How to Look After Your Cloud 9 Aromatherapy Diffuser

To keep your diffuser looking beautiful and working at its best, a little care goes a long way:

1. Choose the perfect spot

Place your diffuser on a stable surface away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and draughts to protect the fragrance quality.

2. Rotate your reeds

Flip the reeds ever 4 days for a fresh burst of scent. Always do this over a tissue or sink to avoid spills.

3. Handle with care

Essential oils can mark surfaces, so wipe any drips immediately and place your diffuser on a coaster or mat.

4. Refresh when needed

When the liquid runs low, replace with a fresh refill and new reeds to ensure the scent remains strong and true.

✨ With a little care, your Cloud 9 diffuser will fill your space with long-lasting fragrance and uplifting aromatherapy benefits.
