Candle Care Tips for a Longer-Lasting Burn

Lit Black Raspberry & Vanilla soy candle from Leimora Home Fragrance in an amber glass jar, featuring a full melt pool and decorative wax accents, styled on a marble countertop with fresh berries, a wick trimmer, a cozy knit blanket, and a potted plant.

A few simple candle-care habits can help you enjoy your favorite fragrances even longer. Before each burn, trim the wick to about ¼ inch to create a cleaner, steadier flame. During the first use, allow the wax to melt completely across the top of the candle to help prevent tunneling.

For safety, always place candles on a heat-resistant surface and keep them away from drafts, pets, and children. Never leave a burning candle unattended.

With proper care, your candle will provide hours of beautiful fragrance and a warm, inviting atmosphere throughout your home.
