Candle Care Guide

Keep your Syrova candles burning beautifully and safely.

Trim the Wick Before Every Burn

Always trim your candle wick to ¼ inch before lighting. This helps:

• Prevent excess smoke
• Maintain a steady flame
• Extend the life of your candle
• Promote a clean burn

Untrimmed wicks can cause soot and uneven melting.

Avoid Tunneling

Candle tunneling happens when wax melts only in the center and leaves hardened wax around the edges.

To prevent this:

• Let the wax pool reach the edges each burn
• Avoid short burn sessions
• Keep candles away from strong airflow

Proper burn time ensures a longer lasting soy candle.

How to Burn Soy Candles Properly

To enjoy a clean-burning, long-lasting soy candle, the first burn is the most important. Allow the wax to melt evenly across the entire surface to prevent tunneling and ensure an even burn throughout the life of your candle.For a 7oz candle, this usually takes 2–3 hours.

Keep Away from Drafts

Airflow from fans, windows, or air conditioning can cause uneven burning and soot buildup.

Place your candle on a stable, flat surface away from drafts to preserve fragrance quality.

How to Make Your Candle Last Longer

• Burn for no more than 4 hours at a time
• Allow candle to cool before relighting
• Keep the wax pool clean from debris
• Stop burning when ½ inch of wax remains

These simple practices maximize burn time and maintain fragrance performance.
