Trim the Wick: Before each lighting, trim the wick to 1/4 inch to ensure a clean, even burn and to minimize soot. This helps the candle burn longer and more efficiently.
First Burn: Allow the candle to burn until the wax pool reaches the edges of the jar during the first use. This prevents tunneling and ensures an even burn throughout the candle’s life.
Avoid Drafts: Keep your candle away from drafts, vents, or open windows to prevent uneven burning and excessive soot.
Burn Time: For optimal performance, do not burn your candle for more than 4 hours at a time. This helps prevent overheating and extends the life of the candle.
Cool Before Moving: Allow the candle to cool completely before moving or touching the jar to avoid spills and burns.
Store Properly: Store candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain their quality and fragrance.
Safety First: Never leave a burning candle unattended and keep it out of reach of children and pets. Always place candles on a heat-resistant surface.
By following these tips, you can enjoy a longer-lasting, cleaner burn and make the most of your candle experience.
