Burn time and wick trimming.

These burn time and wick trimming guidelines will help you achieve the Best Performance from any candle not just Vegetable Wax. Burn your candle a maximum of 3 to 4 hours at a time.

The candle flame height should be between ½” to ¾” - no more. If the flame is higher than ¾”, you will need to extinguish the candle and trim the wick. Then relight.

If your flame is to low, and you are not getting a complete wax pool, you can pour out some of the wax pool to allow the flame size to increase and burn hotter, and thus more completely.

A little wax left on the inside of the jar is really ideal.

For maximum burn time from you votives, put them in a snug fitting glass votive holder. If the holder is to large, it will cause the wax to spread out, resulting in waste.

Drafts in a room that are created from ceiling fans, high traffic areas, or counter/floor fans will effect the performance time of your candles.

Trim the wick so the length does not exceed ¼”.

The wicks are the single most important aspect to any candle and they MUST be maintained and trimmed when necessary because all parts of the candle get absorbed and released through the wick!

Please note: The wick does not melt down with the candle it must be trimmed.

NEVER leave a lit candle unattended and Keep Out of reach from small children.

Just following these simply instruction will improve the over all performance from any candle product.
