1. Trim your wick to ΒΌ of an inch before EACH use. This promotes a safe, even and steady burn. It will limit the likeliness of a mushrooming wick.
2. When enjoying your candle for the first time, allow it to burn until wax melts across the entire surface of your jar. This may take between 2-4 hours and will greatly increase the life burn of your candle.
3. Trim your candle wick after each burn. This is very important to prevent the candles from smoking on the next burn or from burning the sides of the glass. We recommend trimming them between 1/4th and 1/8th of an inch each time.
4. For safety and to preserve the life and aroma of your candle, do not burn your candle more than 4 hours at a time. (This should be a common safety practice for any candles you use.)
5. Always keep your candle free of old wick trimmings, soot, matches and debris at all times. If soot begins to occur during your burn, extinguish your candle and allow to cool before wiping it out
6. Drafts will decrease burn time, cause uneven burning, smoking and a diminished scent throw. To prevent this, keep burning candles away from drafts, vents, ceiling fans, and air currents.
7. Size plays a factor in your scent throw.
Smaller soy candle jars or tins (4 to 6 ounces) will work better for smaller rooms, such as a bath or laundry area, while soy candles of medium size (8 to 10 ounces) are appropriate for rooms of medium size, i.e. bedrooms.
8. I'mdabomb candles are made from natural soy wax, as a result you may see a creamy or uneven texture after your burns. This is a natural affect of our clean burn wax.
9. Do not burn your candle all the way down. Always leave at least 1/4th inch of wax at the bottom. (This should be a common safety practice for any candles you use.)
10. For safety, always burn candle within sight and on a heat resistant surface or candle plate.
