Candle Care 101: How to Get the Most from Your Candles
At Untamed Essence, we craft premium candles to fill your home with warmth and tranquility. To ensure you enjoy every burn to the fullest, follow these essential candle care tips:
1. Trim the Wick
Before each burn, trim the wick to about ¼ inch. This ensures a cleaner, longer-lasting burn and prevents excessive smoke.
2. Let It Burn Evenly
Allow your candle to burn for 2-3 hours on its first use, or until the wax melts evenly across the surface. This avoids tunneling and helps you use the full candle.
3. Avoid Drafts
Candles burn best in a still environment. Place your candle away from drafts or vents to prevent uneven burning or flickering.
4. Extinguishing Your Candle
Use a snuffer to extinguish the flame instead of blowing it out. This prevents wax splatter and smoke.
5. Storage Tips
Store your candles in a cool, dry place and away from direct sunlight to maintain their fragrance and quality.
By following these simple steps, you’ll maximize the life of your Untamed Essence candles and create a soothing, aromatic ambiance in your home.
