1. Burn in small intervals

Ensure your soy wax candle has the longest life possible by burning in 1.5 - 2 hour intervals or until the entire surface of the candle melts. This will prevent tunneling, excess wax build up around the sides of the vessel, and will lead to an even clean burn and maximum scent throw.

2. Trim the wick

Before lighting, trim candle wick to 1/4”. Keeping your wick at this length will avoid mushrooming which can result in unnecessary soot and smoke. This will also control the size of the flame giving you a longer burn time overall.

3. Avoid soot

If soot does form on the inside of the candle vessel, extinguish the candle, wait for it to cool, and then wipe the vessel with a clean damp cloth. Trim the wick and relight.

4. Don't burn all the way down

The flame and wick need a solid base of wax to avoid overheating your vessel. When a 1/4” of wax remains it is time to reuse or recycle your vessel or retire your beeswax pillars.

5. Store in a cool, dry spot

When candles are not in use store them in a cool, dry environment and keep them out of direct sunlight to care for them. Colors may fade or change over time as soy wax is a natural product. Keeping candles out of the sun will help to preserve the look of your candle.

Place your candle carefully

Never leave a lit candle unattended and always place it on a stable, heat-resistant surface. Avoid drafts, open windows, and direct sunlight. Keep out of the reach of children and pets.
