Before your light that wick and sit back to enjoy your new soy candle, read this list.
Cure: All found on earth candles are made to order, so when it gets to you, don't light it yet, wait one to two weeks for the wax and essential oils to settle and blend, this process is called curing.

Cut: Trim the wick to one forth of an inch (do this every time you relight the wick).
Memory: The first burning of the wick is the most important time. To ensure that you get the best scent throw and the most use of your wax burn the candle so that the pool of melted wax gets as close to the edge of your candle as possible, some suggest that you burn the candle for one hour for every inch of the diameter of the candle. So if you have a 3.5 inch diameter candle burn it for 3.5 hours.
Stay Still: Once you light a candle leave it where it is. Imagine if you were walking down some steps with your candle and you happened to trip, all that hot melted wax will be all over you or on the steps or both, these are all horrible scenarios so please avoid moving that candle.
Extinguish:Now that your room is filled with the scent of your soy candle you don't want to ruin it by blowing it out and releasing all that smoke into the air. You can invest in a wick dipper or do as I do and us tweezers to lightly bend the wick into the wax pool and then pulling it back up and making sure it's straight. You might get little black flakes from the wick in your melted pool of wax, use the tweezers or any other object and get those nasty things out.
Be Safe:Please keep in mind that you are dealing with fire when you're enjoying your soy candles. Allows read and follow the safety tips on the bottom on the candle. I'll list some tips here just as a reminder.
-never leave a candle unattended
-do not place by drafts, drapes etc
-keep away from children and pets
-never place objects or water into a candle.
-do not light a candle for longer than 3 hours.
I hope this gave you all some help on using your soy candles.
