Bath and Body Works Candle Care
Bath and Body Works candles are a popular choice for home fragrance, but they can be expensive. Here are a few tips on how to care for your Bath and Body Works candles so that they last longer and burn more evenly.
Trim the wick
The first step to caring for your Bath and Body Works candle is to trim the wick. The wick should be trimmed to about 1/4 inch before each use. This will help the candle to burn more evenly and prevent the wick from smoking or mushrooming.
Burn the candle for the recommended amount of time
Bath and Body Works candles are designed to burn for a certain amount of time. Burning the candle for longer than the recommended amount of time can cause the wax to burn down too quickly and the candle to become unstable. It can also lead to the wick becoming too long and smoking.
Place the candle in a safe location
Bath and Body Works candles should be placed in a safe location away from flammable materials. The candle should also be placed on a stable surface to prevent it from tipping over and causing a fire.
Avoid burning the candle in a drafty area
Burning a candle in a drafty area can cause the flame to flicker and the wax to melt unevenly. This can lead to the candle burning down too quickly and the wick becoming too long.
Store the candle in a cool, dry place
When not in use, Bath and Body Works candles should be stored in a cool, dry place. This will help to prevent the wax from melting and the fragrance from fading.
Re-purpose the candle jar
Once your Bath and Body Works candle has burned down, you can re-purpose the jar. The jar can be used to store small items, such as jewelry, coins, or office supplies. It can also be used as a planter for small plants.
By following these tips, you can help your Bath and Body Works candles last longer and burn more evenly. This will help you to enjoy your favorite fragrances for a longer period of time.
