Does my candle need a warning label? What should it say?

What labels are best for candles?
The best labels for candles are made from durable film materials, which hold up to heat, moisture, and handling. A strong permanent adhesive helps labels stay applied to glass jars and tins. Matte finishes offer a clean, upscale look, while glossy finishes help colors stand out on retail shelves.
