Creating a Burn Memory
When lighting a soy candle for the very first time it's important to allow the wax to melt all the way to the edges of the jar. This first burn should last as long as it takes to do this. If you don't allow the wax to pool on the first burn, you may get wax remaining along the sides of your jar.
Appearance
Our candles are lovingly hand poured, not mass produced. Although all effort is made to ensure consistency, every candle will be slightly different. When using natural soy wax, sometimes you may notice darker patches or wet spots on your candles. This is not a fault, simply a small blemish where the wax has not adhered to the glass 100%. This does not effect the candle in any way. The top of your candle could also appear slightly uneven, this is a sign of natural soy wax being hand poured.
