CANDLE CARE

Taking care of your candle is simple and ensures a clean, even burn every time. Follow these five tips to maximize its life and performance.

1. Trim Your Wick

Before each burn, trim your wick to 1/4 inch using scissors or a wick trimmer. A properly trimmed wick leads to a longer-lasting candle and a cleaner, safer burn.

2. Burn Smart

Allow the melted wax to reach the edges of the jar before extinguishing your candle—especially on the first burn. This prevents tunneling and ensures an even burn. Never leave a burning candle unattended, and always check the burn timeon the warning label.

3. Know When to Say Goodbye

Stop burning your candle when 1/4 to 1/2 inch of wax remains. Burning beyond this point can overheat the jar and become unsafe.

4. Repurpose & Reuse

When your candle is finished, give the jar a second life! Here are two easy ways to clean it out:

• Oven Method: Set your oven to its lowest temperature and place the jar inside until the wax fully melts. Carefully remove the jar, dispose of the wax, and peel off the wick tab. Wash with soap and water, then dry.

• Freezer Method: Place the jar in the freezer until the wax hardens, then gently chip it out. Remove the wick tab, wash with soap and water, and dry.

5. Give Your Jar a New Purpose

Once cleaned, your candle jar can be transformed into something new:

• Home Décor: Use it as a stylish holder for tealights or fairy lights.

• Planter: Perfect for succulents or small greenery.

• Storage: Organize toiletries, makeup brushes, or pens in style.

Taking these steps will help you enjoy your Everlume candle to the fullest—while keeping sustainability in mind.
