How to take care of your favorite scented candle to keep it log lasting.

It's important to understand the proper care techniques to ensure a clean and long-lasting burn. Follow these expert tips to maximize the life and fragrance of your favorite candles.

1. Trim the Wick

Before each use, trim the wick to about 1/4 inch to prevent excessive smoking and maintain an even burn. A trimmed wick also helps control the size of the flame, reducing the risk of soot buildup on the container.

2. Avoid Tunneling

To prevent tunneling, allow the candle to burn long enough for the wax to melt evenly across the surface. This helps avoid the formation of a tunnel down the center of the candle, which can waste wax and reduce burn time.

3. Burn in Intervals

For optimal performance, burn candles in intervals of 2-3 hours. This allows the fragrance to disperse effectively without overheating the container. Remember to extinguish the candle before leaving the room or going to bed.

4. Store Properly

Keep candles away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent discoloration and melting. Store them in a cool, dry place to maintain their quality and fragrance. Avoid placing candles near drafts or vents that can affect the burn.

5. Use a Snuffer

Instead of blowing out the candle, use a wick snuffer to extinguish the flame. This helps prevent hot wax from splattering and keeps the wick centered for the next burn. Avoid touching or moving the candle while the wax is still liquid.

6. Clean the Container

After the candle has burned down, clean the container to remove any remaining wax residue. You can repurpose the container for storage or decoration, or recycle it according to local guidelines. Avoid using harsh chemicals that can damage the finish.

By following these expert tips for proper candle care, you can enjoy a safe and aromatic experience with your favorite candles. Remember to always read and follow the our instructions for specific candle types and materials. Happy burning!
