What are the benefits of using scented candles?
Scented candles can provide a variety of benefits, including:
Creating a relaxing atmosphere: Certain scents, such as lavender and chamomile, are known to have calming and soothing properties.
Improving mood: Scented candles can help to boost your mood and energy levels.
Masking unpleasant odors: Scented candles can help to mask unpleasant odors in your home.

How do I choose the right scented candle?
When choosing a scented candle, there are a few things to keep in mind:
The size of the room: Choose a candle that is the right size for the room. A small candle will not be able to fill a large room with fragrance, while a large candle may be overwhelming in a small room.
The scent: Choose a scent that you enjoy. There are many different types of scented candles available, so you are sure to find one that you love.
The type of wax: Scented candles are made from a variety of waxes, including soy wax, beeswax, and paraffin wax. Each type of wax has its own unique properties. For example, soy wax is a natural wax that burns cleanly and evenly. Beeswax is a natural wax that has a long burn time. Paraffin wax is a synthetic wax that is inexpensive and burns brightly.
How do I care for my scented candle and make it last longer?
To get the most out of your scented candle, follow these tips:
Trim the wick to 1/4 inch before each use: This prevents the flame from getting too large and burning through the wax too quickly.
Burn for at least an hour per use: This allows the wax pool to melt evenly to the edges, preventing tunneling.
Avoid drafts: Drafts can cause the candle to burn unevenly and faster.
Extinguish properly: Don't blow out the candle, as this can create soot. Use a candle snuffer or dip the wick into the melted wax to extinguish it.
Store properly: Store your candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the wax from melting or discoloring.
Are scented candles safe?
Scented candles are generally safe to use, but there are a few things to keep in mind:
Always burn candles in a well-ventilated area.
Keep candles out of the reach of children and pets.
Do not leave a burning candle unattended.
Do not burn a candle on or near anything that can catch fire.
How long will my scented candle last?
The burn time of a scented candle depends on several factors, including:
Size of the candle: Larger candles will naturally burn longer than smaller ones.
Type of wax: Different waxes have varying burn times. Soy wax tends to burn slower and more evenly than paraffin wax.
Candle care: Proper care, like trimming the wick and avoiding drafts, can help maximize burn time.
You can usually find the estimated burn time for a specific candle on its product description or label.
My candle has stopped smelling as strong. What should I do?
The fragrance of a scented candle can fade over time due to exposure to air. To help maintain the scent, always keep the lid on the candle when not in use.
Additionally, make sure to store the candle in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. If the scent has significantly faded, you can try burning it for a longer period to release more fragrance.
What is candle tunneling and how can I prevent it?
Candle tunneling is when the wax melts down the center of the candle, leaving a ring of unmelted wax around the edges. This can happen if you don't burn the candle long enough for the wax pool to reach the edges. To prevent tunneling, burn your candle for at least an hour each time or until the wax melts to the edges of the container.
