How to Care for Your Candles: A Guide from Giaroma Candle Company
1. Trim the Wick Before Each Burn
Keep the wick at 1/4 inch to prevent soot, flickering, and uneven burning. For precision, use a wick trimmer, scissors, or nail clippers.
2. Let Wax Melt Evenly
To avoid tunneling, allow the wax to melt fully to the jar’s edges on the first burn. This takes 1-3 hours depending on size.
3. Burn in Short Sessions
Limit burns to 3-4 hours to prevent wick mushrooming and excess soot. Let wax cool before relighting.
4. Avoid Drafts
Place candles on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from air vents, fans, and open windows for an even burn.
5. Use a Snuffer
Extinguish with a snuffer instead of blowing out to minimize smoke and wick disturbance.
6. Store Properly
Keep candles in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight and dust. Use lids to preserve scent.
7. Repurpose Jars
When 1/2 inch of wax remains, clean the jar and reuse it for storage, décor, or DIY projects.
