Candle Burning Tips
How do you take care of a candle?
- Keep the wax free of debris and dust by keeping the lid on between uses.
- Don't put the lid on too soon after burning - let the wax cool first and refirm.
- Trim the wick after each burning - wait until the wax is solid before trimming to prevent debris getting stuck in the wax.
How to stop candle tunneling?
When you burn your candle, leave it burning long enough to allow the top surface of the wax to melt completely, from the wick all the way to the edge of the candle's container. Not only will this release as much scent as possible but it also will stop tunneling in its tracks.
How do you make a candle burn evenly again?
If you notice your candle is burning unevenly, you need to forcibly melt the entire surface of the wax in order to "reset" it's memory. Then allow the melted wax to settle back into a smooth, even surface.
