How do I keep my soy candle from tunneling?
The first burn of your candle is the most important. Soy wax holds memory from the very first time it is lit. We recommend burning your candle for at least 2.5-3.5 hours the first time you light it.
This helps ensure that you achieve a full melt pool across your candle container. If you happen to blow out your candle before you have a full wax melt pool your candle is going to be more vulnerable to "tunneling. If this happens, don’t worry! Just make sure that the next time you light your candle, that you burn it for long enough that the wax left on the sides from the previous burn starts to melt down with the he rest of the candle as it should.
How long should i burn my candle for?
The safest and most efficient way to care for your candle is to prevent it from being burned for too long at a time. We suggest making sure that your soy candle doesn’t burn for longer than 4 hours to achieve the longest candle-life possible while keeping your home free of potential hazard.
