Know before you buy
A wick trimmer is specifically angled to reach deep into jar candles, allowing you to cut the wick at the base without dropping debris into the wax. Scissors often struggle to reach the bottom of deep vessels and can leave charred bits behind.
You should aim to trim your wick to approximately 1/4 inch before every burn. This length prevents the flame from becoming too large, which reduces soot and helps your candle burn more evenly.
This tool is specifically designed for jar candles. While it works well for most standard candle shapes, it may not be suitable for very narrow tapers or unique pillar designs.
Since the trimmer is made of polished brass, simply wipe it down with a soft, dry cloth after use to remove any wax residue. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges, as these can scratch or dull the gold finish.
No, this trimmer is not dishwasher safe. Hand-cleaning with a soft cloth is the best way to preserve the finish and ensure the tool remains in good condition.
