Candle Care & Tips
Proper candle care enhances safety, extends burn time, and maximizes fragrance enjoyment. Here are essential tips to maintain your candles effectively:
Initial Burn Duration
During the first use, allow the candle to burn until the wax melts evenly across the entire surface, reaching the edges of the container. This typically takes about 1 hour per inch of the candle's diameter. Achieving a full melt pool prevents tunneling and ensures an even burn in future uses.
Regular Wick Trimming
Before each lighting, trim the wick to approximately ¼ inch (5mm). This practice helps control the flame size, reduces soot production, and promotes a cleaner, longer-lasting burn.
Optimal Burn Time
Avoid burning candles for more than 4 hours at a time. Extended burning can cause the wick to mushroom, leading to soot buildup and an uneven burn. After extinguishing, let the candle cool for at least 2 hours before relighting.
Safe Extinguishing Methods
Use a candle snuffer or wick dipper to extinguish the flame. Blowing out a candle can cause hot wax to splatter and produce smoke. Proper extinguishing methods help maintain the candle's integrity and reduce soot.
Proper Storage
Store candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration and melting. Covering them when not in use helps keep the wax clean and free from dust.
Safety Precautions
Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep candles out of reach of children and pets. Place candles on stable, heat-resistant surfaces away from flammable materials. Avoid placing candles in drafty areas to prevent uneven burning and soot.
When to Discontinue Use
Stop burning the candle when approximately ½ inch (12mm) of wax remains at the bottom. Continuing to burn beyond this point can cause the container to overheat and pose a fire risk.
