Candle Care

Learn simple candle care tips to enjoy a cleaner, longer-lasting burn while keeping your Velvet Flame candles beautiful, safe, and beautifully scented.

Never burn longer than 4 hours

Extinguish, let the candle cool for two hours, trim and relight. This keeps the flame safe and the scent fresh.

The first burn matters most

Burn for 2-3 hours the first time, until the melted wax reaches the edge of the jar. Soy wax has a “memory” stopping early causes tunneling.

Trim your wick to ¼ inch

Before every burn, trim the wick to about 6 mm. This prevents soot, flickering and a mushroomed wick.

Give your jar a second life

Freeze overnight, pop out the remaining wax, then wash with warm soapy water. Perfect for brushes, cotton pads or a tiny bouquet.

Safety first

  • Keep away from drafts, children, pets and anything flammable.
  • Always place on a heat-safe surface.
  • Stop burning when ½ inch of wax remains.
  • Use a snuffer or wick dipper instead of blowing out.
