Candles have always been a staple in our homes for ambiance, relaxation, and even for safety. But with the ever-growing popularity of natural crystal and herb-infused candles, taking care of them has become even more important. Here at Izzy Biz Candle Co., we take pride in not only providing high-quality natural candles but also educating our customers about the proper ways to burn and care for them. In this blog post, we'll cover all of the basics of candle care 101, so you can enjoy the warm and soothing glow of your Izzy Biz candles safely and confidently.
At Izzy Biz Candle Co., we use natural crystals and herbs in our candles to add unique and beautiful elements to your experience. However, these natural materials require some extra care from you. Once the wax has warmed enough, gently remove any large crystals on the surface to prevent them from interfering with the wick and causing potential hazards. This will not only prevent any potential fire risks but also ensure that you get the maximum burn time from your candles.
Please be aware that the herbs used in our candles can cause higher than usual flames, which adds to the ambiance of your space. However, this also means you must take extra caution. We advise that you do not leave the candle unattended and keep it away from flammable surfaces. This is especially important if you have pets or young children in your home. Always remember to keep your candles within sight, so you can enjoy the beauty of the candle while also keeping your household safe.
Trimming the wick is another essential step in candle care that is often overlooked. Before each use, make sure to trim the wick to ¼ inch using scissors or a wick trimmer. A longer wick can cause black soot to form on the glass and create a larger flame, which is a safety concern. By keeping the wick trimmed, you'll have a consistent flame that will burn evenly and last longer.
In addition to trimming the wick, you should always keep the candle away from drafts or anything that can catch fire. Any movement or airflow can cause the wick to move and create an uneven burn. Keep the candle on a stable, heat-resistant surface and out of reach of children and pets. This will ensure you get the most enjoyment from your candle while also keeping your household safe.
