Candle Lighting Tips
* Always trim your wick before lighting. The shorter, the less wick it burns making for a much cleaner burn. These ‘cleaner burns’ are what you want because these produce the scent that fills the room when mixed with the fragrant oils. If the wick burns more, you’d be smelling the soot instead.
*Amount of burn time is important! Some people dismiss candles because they don’t produce scents almost immediately upon lighting. It ain’t like that, folks. Rule of thumb is burn an hour for every diameter inch. You gotta wait for a ‘meltpool’ to form before you can start smelling something. This also allows for even melting of the wax so you avoid those god-forbid hollows that leave side residues.
*Dip it, don’t blow it. Finally, don’t extinguish the flame as if it’s your birthday. You gotta dip the wick into the pool and pull it back up after. This just saves you from a soot-smelling room. Or if you are using our small or large jar, just use the cover of the jar and without oxygen, this will extinguish the flame.
