A little care goes a long way with a natural wax candle:
- On the first burn, let the wax pool right to the edges of the glass, this helps prevent tunnelling later on.
- Trim the wick to around ¼ inch (6mm) before every burn.
- Extinguish using the lid (if included) or a snuffer, rather than blowing it out.
- Burn on a heat-resistant surface, for no longer than 4 hours at a time, and never unattended or near children or pets.
