How should I clean a candle jar after use?
When 5 mm of wax remain or the metal wick holder is visible, it's time to give your candle a second life.
Step 1
After the last use, it is recommended to let the candle cool completely so that the wax solidifies and the glass returns to its normal temperature.
Step 2
To remove the wax:
- Place the candle in a heat-resistant bowl, itself placed in a sink
- Pour water at about 60°C up to halfway, making sure not to get any inside the candle
- Let it sit for two minutes before taking out the jar, holding it by the top
Step 3
The wax can then be easily removed by sliding a rounded blade between the wax and the glass wall. The jar can then be washed by hand with a non-abrasive sponge and La Droguerie dishwashing liquid or in the dishwasher.
