🔮 Is It Safe to Burn Candles with Crystals Inside?
If you’ve ever laid eyes on a gorgeous crystal-infused candle and thought, “That’s way too pretty to burn” - we get it. But yes, you can safely burn candles with crystals in them (when they’re made right, of course). And the good news? Ours are of course made so that you can burn them safely as soon as they arrive.
So, let’s talk about crystal candles, what makes them safe, and why they’re one of the best self-care mood-boosters going 'round.
💎 Wait, First - What Are Crystal Candles?
Crystal candles are just like your regular luxe candles… but way more vibey. They’re topped with real crystals like Citrine, Rose Quartz or Amethyst - each one chosen for its energy and intention. Think: relaxation, motivation, love, strength, good vibes only. ✨
At Three Suns, we hand-place each crystal to make sure they’re safe to burn and don’t mess with your flame.
🕯️ So... Are They Actually Safe?
Yep - totally safe to burn as long as:
The crystals are small chips (ours are 🙌)
They’re heat resistant (all ours are too)
You don’t let your candle burn right to the bottom always stop burning at 1cm from base (safety first, always)
We’re all about safety and sparkle. So, every crystal in a Three Suns candle is carefully placed to stay clear of the flame while the wax melts evenly around it.
🧯 Safety Tips (You Know… Just in Case)
Here’s how to burn your crystal candles like a pro:
✅ Trim the wick to 5mm before every burn
✅ Let the wax melt all the way to the edges on the first burn (no tunnelling here!)
✅ Keep it away from breezes, curtains, or curious pets
✅ Don’t leave it burning for more than 4 hours
✅ Stop burning when there’s about 1cm of wax left - give those crystals a safe landing
