Using the right tools can really make a difference in how your candles perform and last. A 2-piece candle trimmer/snufer set is designed to both trim the wick and safely extinguish the flame without creating smoke or disturbing the wax.
Trimming the Wick:
Use the trimmer to snip off any excess wick before lighting your candle. Keeping the wick trimmed to about 1/4 inch helps ensure a cleaner, more even burn and reduces soot.
Extinguishing the Flame:
Instead of blowing out your candle, use the snuffer. This tool gently cuts off the flame by limiting oxygen, which minimizes smoke and helps prevent wax splatter.
Improved Candle Performance:
Regular trimming promotes an even burn and extends the life of your candle.
Enhanced Safety:
Using a snuffer is a safer way to extinguish candles, reducing the risk of hot wax splatter.
Cleanliness:
Proper wick care helps prevent the buildup of carbon and soot on your candle and in your space.
Investing in a quality candle trimmer/snufer set is a simple yet effective way to care for your candles and enjoy their best performance.
