Skillfully choosing scented candles, you can create a solemn and romantic, peaceful and invigorating atmosphere in the room. And if you guess the preferences of a loved one and choose a candle for the interior of his apartment, it will be a wonderful gift. Try to use scented candles more economically, because you want to prolong the pleasure of delicate scents as long as possible.
Scented candles come in a variety of compositions and shapes. Intricate shapes and candles - "pills", jelly-like products in transparent glass cups made of semi-solid gel and classic elongated shapes.
If you wish to extend the life of a scented candle, keep in mind that a gel candle will burn longer than a wax or paraffin candle. The thicker it is, the longer it will live. For example, a scented candle with a diameter of ten centimeters is designed for about five hours of continuous "work". It is not by chance that this size of candles is so often used in aroma lamps.
Before lighting a scented candle, let it rest for about 3 hours in the refrigerator. After that, light it and let the vapor of essential oils fill the room. If the product is being used for the first time, wait a little until its surface is completely covered with melted hot liquid (gel, paraffin, wax). Now extinguish the candle with a special cap. When it cools down, light it up again.
An hour is enough for a pleasant broadcast to spread throughout the room. Then again gently slam the cap back on the light. When purchasing a candle, do not neglect such a useful trifle. The cap for candles allows you to preserve the unique aromas of the combination of essential oils, protects them from the smell of a burnt wick.
You should not burn a candle for too long - its smell will become too heavy and strong. It will not please your guests or you, especially if you have allergies. Plus, you'll save the scented candle until next time.
Wait until the liquid melted in the middle has solidified properly before using the candle again. Then be sure to trim the wick with small scissors so that its length is no more than seven centimeters, otherwise the wick will burn too quickly. Make sure that the candle light does not flicker too much and is even. Protect it from drafts.
Complete with scented candles, you can purchase a device for heating them. Such a device will decorate the interior with a design and will evenly heat the candle, keeping its shape. You can take candles complete with incense sticks - the smell of sticks from the room does not disappear for a long time.
No matter how you take care of the scented candle dear to your heart, one day it will burn out. If the candle was sold in a glass beaker, do not throw it away, adapt it for storing some small things. They will absorb the rest of the unique scent and will remind you for a long time of a romantic evening by candlelight.
