Candle Care: These Candles Won’t Self-Care Themselves

Step 01

Trim

Prior to each lighting, trim the wick to 3-5mm for a clean and smoke free burn.

Also, always protect the surface on which the candle sits.

 

Step 02

Burn

On your first light, allow the entire surface of wax to melt — Minimum of 3 hours. There will be some “wax wall hanging,” but that’s normal.

For all burns, never let it go on for more than 4 hours.

 

Step 03

Center

Ensure the wick is centered.

After each burn, adjust the wick while the wax is still molten.
