Candle Care Guide
Getting the most from your MINZAY candle starts with proper care. Follow these tips for a beautiful, long-lasting burn.
🕯️
The First Burn
The first burn is the most important. Allow the wax to melt completely to the edges of the container (usually 2-3 hours). This prevents "tunneling" and ensures an even burn throughout the candle's life.
✂️
Before Each Light
Trim the wick to approximately 1/4 inch (6mm) before every burn. This:
- Prevents smoking and soot
- Creates a cleaner, more even flame
- Extends your candle's life
⏱️
While Burning
- Never burn for more than 4 hours at a time
- Keep away from drafts, vents, and fans
- Never leave a burning candle unattended
- Keep out of reach of children and pets
- Place on a heat-resistant surface
⚠️
When to Stop
Stop burning when 1/2 inch (12mm) of wax remains at the bottom. Burning beyond this point can cause the container to overheat.
📦
Storage
Store candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve fragrance and prevent discoloration.
