When you light a candle for the very first
time, let it burn for a while to ensure the
entire surface of the candle melts before you put it out, ideally around 3 - 4 hours. If you don’t, your candle could end up with a rim of solid wax that never ends up melting.
✅ If you want all the wax in your candle to burn, it’s important to let it burn evenly before you put it out.
Once you’ve used your candle a few times, you may notice that soot and other debris have started to accumulate inside the container.
✅ Remove any debris the moment you see it. You can use tweezers (or something similar) to pluck wick trimmings from your candle’s wax whenever you see them.
✅ For a clean, even burn, make sure your candle’s wick is the right length. Ideally, 5mm will give a nice even burn. If it’s longer than 5mm use scissors for a neat trim.
❌ Be sure not to cut it too short as this will cause the wick to get lost in the melted wax and fail to light.
Follow these tips to get the best performance from your candle.
Enjoy!
