The choice and storage of candle jars directly affect the duration of the scent and the experience of using them. Here are some tips for storing and using candle jars to help you maximize the persistence of your candle scent.
1. Choose the right candle jar
Material selection: Glass candle jars are ideal for keeping scents. Especially frosted glass jars with lids, which not only isolate air, but also avoid direct sunlight to prevent the scent from volatilizing too quickly.
Thick jar walls: The thicker the candle jar walls, the more stable the temperature of the candle when it burns, preventing the candle fragrance from burning too quickly. Especially frosted and black glass jars, which can provide better protection.
Sealing performance: The lid design is very important, which can prevent air from entering and reduce the loss of candle fragrance. When not in use, be sure to cover the lid.
2. Control of the storage environment
Store away from light: Sunlight and strong light will accelerate the volatilization of candle fragrances. It is best to store candles in a cool, dry, and light-proof place. If the candle jar itself is transparent, it is recommended to use external packaging to block light during storage.
Temperature control: Extreme heat and cold are not suitable for storing candles. High temperatures soften the candles and cause the fragrance to be released prematurely, while low temperatures make the candles brittle. It is best to keep them at room temperature.
Humidity: A humid environment will affect the texture and fragrance of the candles. It is recommended to avoid humid environments when storing, especially during the rainy season or in coastal areas.
3. Candle lighting tips
First burn: Make sure that the wax liquid melts evenly to the edge of the candle jar when the candle is lit for the first time. This helps to avoid the tunnel effect and make the candle burn more evenly afterwards, thereby extending the life of the candle and the persistence of the fragrance.
Maintain the length of the wick: A wick that is too long will cause the candle to burn unstably and affect the release of fragrance. Before each lighting, trim the wick to about 0.5 cm to help stabilize the burning and extend the life of the candle.
Avoid long-term lighting: It is recommended that the candle should not be used for more than 3-4 hours each time to prevent excessive heating from causing the candle jar to break, or the fragrance to evaporate quickly.
4. Common problems and solutions
The fragrance is not long-lasting: If you find that the candle fragrance weakens rapidly, it may be due to improper storage or too long lighting time, causing the fragrance to evaporate too quickly. Make sure the candle is covered with a lid immediately after use.
Uneven candle burning: If the candle has a tunnel effect, it is recommended to ensure that the wax pool is completely melted to the edge when using it, and avoid multiple lighting in a short period of time. You can also wrap the outer wall of the candle jar with aluminum foil to help the wax melt evenly.
5. Standards for choosing high-quality candle jars
High-quality glass jars: Choose thick, heat-resistant glass jars, especially frosted or black jars. These jars are not only high-quality in texture, but also effectively protect the scent of the candle.
Reusable: Choose beautifully designed candle jars. After the candle is used up, it can also be used as a storage jar, vase, etc. to improve the environmental protection and economy of the product.
The above storage and use tips can effectively extend the durability of the candle's fragrance and ensure that you can enjoy the best fragrance experience every time you light it.
