Q:  Why does my candle look separated from the glass?
A:  Due to weather conditions, sometimes a slight slippage from the glass occurs.  Your candle is not damaged and this issue will resolve while burning. During the drying process, depending on the room's temperature, the wax can pull away from the glass as it cools, creating this effect. However, once the candle is lit, it will go away as the glass heats up.
