The first or 2nd time you burn your candle, let it burn until it forms a melted pool of wax around the entire jar. This is a critical step to help your candle burn evenly. 

Always trim your candle wick to ¼ inch prior to each lighting. You can use a wick trimmer, nail clippers, or scissors to do this. We recommend a wick trimmer! 

Keep the wax pool clear of wick trimmings, matches & debris at all times. 

Do not burn for more than 4-6 hours. Let your candle cool for at least 1-2 hours before relighting. 

When lighting a candle, use long matches or a long-reach lighter. We recommended an electric, USB chargeable one. Can be found online and is an eco-friendly alternative. 

If you notice high flames and/or soot (powdery black cotton ball-looking matter at the end of your wick), blow out your candle, let it cool, and trim your wick before you light it again.
