Candle Care Essentials

Proper candle care is essential to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. By following these simple tips, you can prolong the life of your candle and get the most out of your purchase.

Trim the wick: Before lighting your candle, trim the wick to about 1/4 inch. This will help prevent soot buildup and ensure a clean, even burn.

Burn time: For optimal burn time and fragrance release, burn your candle for at least 2-3 hours at a time.

Avoid drafts: Keep your candle away from drafts and air currents, as these can cause uneven burning and soot buildup.

Extinguish properly: To extinguish your candle, simply snuff out the flame with a candle snuffer. Do not blow it out, as this can cause smoke and soot.

Store properly: When not in use, store your candle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Discontinue use: If the candle becomes uneven or the wax is burning too quickly, discontinue use.

Never leave burning candles unattended.
