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.

Enjoy your handcrafted moment!
