Please be advised that soy candles burn best when you do the following: 

• Ensure you trim your wick to 1/4 inch each time before burning 

• FIRST BURN IS MOST IMPORTANT! Please burn your candle for at least 2 hours the first time you burn it. This should allow for a full wax pool to form (wax melted from edge to edge). This is important to prevent tunneling in your candle. When you burn your soy candle for at least 2 hours the first time you will ensure that you get the maximum burn time for the life of the candles. 

• You should not burn your candles for more than 4 hour at a time.

• Do not leave your candles burning unattended.
