One of the most crucial aspects of candle care is trimming the wick. Over time, candle wicks can become too long, causing the flame to burn too hot and too fast.

Using a wick trimmer, cut the wick to about 1/4 inch before lighting the candle. This prevents excessive soot buildup and ensures an even, controlled burn.

A wick trim is also necessary before the flame becomes too high. If you burn your candle for several hours at a time (which we recommend), wait for the candle to cool and then trim the wick again. This will ultimately lengthen your candle burning time because it will burn evenly.

By properly caring for your candles, you can prevent issues like tunneling and uneven melting. Tunneling occurs when the candle burns down the center, leaving unused wax on the sides.

Candle care is not only about enhancing the candle's performance but also about safety. Trimmed wicks and controlled flames reduce the risk of accidents and help you enjoy your candles worry-free.
