How to take care of my soy candle

31 Jan

Soy Wax Candles need some level of care for the best results.

The first burn is the most important: let the candle burn until an even “wax pool” is created and it burns to the edge of the vessel. Candles have memory and it’s important to burn it evenly the first time so it continues to burn that way.
Trim the wick after each burn: this limits the amounts of fuel (because of the burnt wood available for burning). This results to a more even and clean burn.
Embrace any changes of your candle’s appearance: the beauty of soy wax is that it’s versatile, meaning that bubbles can be created and slight changes might appear on the surface- but this doesn’t affect the quality or burning at all!
It is advisable to burn it no longer than 3-4 hours at a time. This ensures an even burn while providing enough scent.
