π―οΈ Candle Care Guide – 4 Wicks Candle Co.
Because a little care makes every candle last longer and burn better.
π§Ό 1. Trim the Wick
Before each burn, trim your wick to ¼ inch. This helps prevent excess soot, uneven burning, and large flames.
π 2. Let It Melt
On your first burn, let the wax melt all the way to the edges of the jar — usually about 2–3 hours. This prevents tunneling and ensures an even melt every time.
π« 3. Burn Smart
• Only burn your candle for 3–4 hours at a time.
• Always place your candle on a heat-safe surface.
• Keep away from drafts, children, and pets.
π¨ 4. Extinguish with Care
Use a snuffer or gently blow out the flame. Avoid splashing hot wax. Never use water to extinguish a candle.
β»οΈ 5. Reuse the Jar
Once your candle is done, clean out the jar with warm water and soap. Reuse it for pens, plants, or anything pretty.
