The Ultimate Guide to Candle Care: Get the Most Out of Your Favorite Scent by moltencore-candles

Candles are more than just a source of light—they set the mood, create a cozy atmosphere, and fill your space with beautiful fragrances. But to enjoy your candle to the fullest, a little extra care goes a long way. Follow these essential tips to ensure a clean, even burn and extend the life of your favorite moltencore scent.

🔥 Burn Time Matters

For an even, long-lasting burn, let your candle melt for at least 1 hour and no more than 4 hours at a time. This ensures the wax melts evenly from wick to edge, preventing tunneling and wasted wax.

✂️ Trim Your Wick

Before each burn, trim the wick to 0.5 - 1 cm to maintain a steady flame and reduce soot. A properly trimmed wick prevents excessive flickering, ensures a cleaner burn, and helps your candle last longer.

💨 Keep Away from Drafts

Position your candle in a stable, draft-free area away from windows, fans, or air vents. This prevents uneven burning, excessive smoking, and soot buildup on the jar.

🏡 Place on a Safe Surface

Always set your candle on a flat, heat-resistant surface. To protect your furniture, use the candle lid as a coaster—this also prevents heat damage from the hot glass bottom.

👀 Never Leave Unattended

Safety first! Never leave your candle burning unsupervised and keep it out of reach of pets and children. Remember, the jar can get hot, so allow it to cool before moving it.

🕯️ Extinguish with Care

To put out your candle with minimal smoke, simply use the lid. Be mindful that the lid may become warm, and always ensure your candle is completely extinguished before leaving the room.

By following these simple yet effective tips, you’ll enjoy a cleaner, safer, and longer-lasting candle experience. Treat your moltencore candle with care, and let the magic of fragrance transform your space!

Light. Relax. Enjoy.
