Candle Care Tips for Soy Wax Candles!
To get the best experience from your Blue Honey Soy Wax Candles, follow these simple tips to ensure a longer, cleaner, and safer burn:
1. Trim the Wick
Before each burn, trim the wick to ¼ inch to prevent excessive smoke and ensure an even flame. This helps avoid mushrooming of the wick and keeps your candle burning longer.
2. First Burn Matters
On the first burn, allow the candle to melt across the entire surface to avoid tunneling. This helps create an even burn and maximizes the candle's life.
3. Burn Time
For optimal results, burn your candle for 2-4 hours at a time. Avoid burning for more than 4 hours to prevent the container from overheating.
4. Keep Away from Drafts
Burn candles in an area free from drafts to avoid uneven burning or excessive smoking.
5. Extinguish Safely
Use a candle snuffer to extinguish the flame, or gently blow it out. Avoid using the lid or other objects to smother the flame, as this may cause smoke or damage to the wick.
6. Recenter the Wick
After each burn, gently reposition the wick to the center while the wax is still soft. This ensures an even burn during the next use.
7. Stay Safe
- Always burn candles within sight.
- Keep away from flammable objects, children, and pets.
- Never leave a burning candle unattended.
8. Clean the Jar
Once your candle has burned down to ¼ inch of wax remaining, it’s time to stop burning. Clean out the jar to re-purpose it for storage, decor, or other uses!
