Candle Care 101: Make Your Harlequin Candle Last Longer 🕯️
There’s nothing quite like the soft glow and comforting scent of a hand-poured soy candle. Every Harlequin Candle is crafted with care and premium ingredients for a luxurious fragrance that fills your home with warmth.
Follow these simple soy candle care tips to help yours burn evenly, last longer, and glow beautifully from first light to last flicker.
Step 1: The First Burn 🔥
Your candle’s first light sets the tone for every burn that follows.
Let the wax melt to the edges before blowing it out — this prevents tunnelling, where the wick burns straight down and wastes wax.
Tip: A full melt pool on the first burn keeps your candle even and long-lasting.
Step 2: Wick Care ✂️
Before each burn, trim your wick to about 6 mm. A tidy wick keeps the flame steady, reduces smoke, and stops that little “mushroom” tip from forming.
✨ Cleaner, brighter flame
✨ Less soot and flicker
✨ Longer-lasting candle
Use wick trimmers or sharp scissors — just snip before lighting.
Step 3: Love Your Lid 💛
Every Harlequin Candle comes with its own lid to keep it looking and smelling beautiful.
🕯️ Locks in fragrance between burns
🕯️ Keeps dust out
🕯️ Helps preserve scent quality
Wait until smoke clears before replacing the lid to prevent condensation.
Step 4: Burn Safely 🔒
Enjoy the glow — safely.
✔️ Place on a stable, heat-resistant surface
✔️ Keep away from draughts and flammable items
✔️ Never leave unattended
✔️ Keep out of reach of children and pets
A cared-for candle is a candle that lasts.
The Final Glow 🌿
With a little care, your soy candle will burn cleaner, last longer, and fill your space with lasting warmth.
Happy burning! ✨
