When you first burn your candle, plan to let it melt for 2-3 hours or until the wax has pooled all the way to the sides of the vessel. It’s normal for the coconut crème wax candles to have some level of hang up on the interior edges until the next burn period.
Always burn your candle on a heat-safe surface.
Keep your cotton wick trimmed to 1/4-inch and your wood wick around 1/8-inch for safe burning
Always keep candles away from tiny humans and beloved pets.
Want your candle to burn longer and with less soot? Ensure you trim the excess carbon buildup from your wick before each burn.
As your candle burns, carbon naturally accumulates on the wick. Relighting a wick with this buildup can lead to increased soot and heat, diminishing the candle's performance. This is the cause of the black smoke you may have seen clinging to the sides of your glass candles or even from the flame. This does not mean that you don't have a "clean-burning" candle. This means that there's an imbalance in the candle's heat and fuel, which is most-likely caused by a wick that needs to be trimmed back a bit.
