It's the golden rule of candle care – always trim the wick to about 1/4 inch before lighting up. Not only does this prevent a mini bonfire when you light it up, but it also ensures a smooth, even burn. No one likes excessive smoke stealing the show, right?

2. First Burn Vibes

Picture this: your candle is lit, the mood is set, and magic is in the air. Well, the first burn is crucial to keep that magic alive. Let your candle dance for a few hours during its debut. This "memory burn" prevents tunneling in the future, ensuring your candle burns like a superstar every time.
