A premium candle deserves premium care. Follow these tips for max burn time, bold scent throw, and safe enjoyment.
🕯 Candle Care: Burn Like a Boss
Your candle deserves VIP treatment — here’s how to get the most burn time, best scent throw, and safest experience every time.
1️⃣ Trim That Wick – Before each burn, trim wick to ¼". Long wicks burn too hot, make soot, and waste wax.
2️⃣ First Burn = Foundation Burn – Let the wax melt all the way to the jar edges before blowing out (usually 2–3 hours). Prevents tunneling and wasted scent.
3️⃣ No Marathons – Burn for max 4 hours at a time. Longer burns overheat wax, fry fragrance oils, and shorten lifespan.
4️⃣ Pick a Draft-Free Zone – Fans, vents, and open windows mess with your flame and steal your scent.
5️⃣ Respect the Last ½ Inch – Stop burning when ½" of wax remains to protect your jar and surfaces.
6️⃣ Store Smart – Keep away from sunlight and heat to preserve fragrance and wax quality.
🔥 Pro Tip: Follow these rules and you can get 50+ hours of bold, even burn from an 8oz candle.
