Candle Care

You're purchased your Reminds Me Of candle. Now, make sure you get the most out of your burn with our top candle-care tips: 

Treasure your first burn

For the first burn, make sure you light the candle for at least 1 hour to ensure a full melt pool—where the melt reaches the edges. A full melt pool not only maximises the scent throw, but also helps the wax build memory for a consistent, even burn in future.

Trim your wicks

For a clean burn, you want to ensure that your flame is burning in a steady manner. If it’s wild and emitting black soot, your wick is too tall. Trim the wax to approximately 0.75-1cm with a pair of scissors each time before lighting. We recommend investing in a quality wick trimmer that allows you to access the depths of our glass vessels for optimal trimming precision.

Burn for at least 1 hour

Try to ensure each subsequent burn is at least for 1 hour, but under 4 hours. Our candle scents reach their peak scent throw after the first 30 minutes of burning. This serves as an incentive for you to extend the burn time of your candle, allowing you to fully experience the candle at its best.
