🕯️ THE #1 MISTAKE CANDLE OWNERS MAKE ON THE FIRST BURN 🕯️
Have you ever noticed a candle burning straight down the centre while leaving wax around the edges?
This is called tunnelling and it’s one of the most common candle care mistakes.
The good news? It’s usually preventable.
When lighting your candle for the very first time, allow the wax to melt all the way to the edge of the jar before blowing it out. This helps create an even burn pattern and allows you to enjoy every bit of your candle.
A little extra patience on the first burn can make a big difference to the life of your candle.
✨ More even burning
✨ Better fragrance throw
✨ Less wasted wax
✨ Longer-lasting candles
