Frequently Asked Questions & Tips

All wicks are pre-trimmed before shipping. Once your candle arrives you should be all set to burn! If by chance your wick looks a little too tall a good rule of thumb is to make sure it is a 1/8 inch tall.

If you notice discoloration in your wax no need to worry! This process is completely normal, your beeswax is doing its job, purifying and collecting the toxins and allergens in the air. When the wax is hot and liquefied the dust and other particles collect in the wax which can cause discoloration depending on the location you put your candle.   

With each candle that is made, Ronee Bee Candle Co. has provided a lid. Please make sure your lid is on your candle at all times when not burning. This is to ensure your scent lasts longer and stays potent. Please make sure all smoke is blown away before capping candles if done too early candle scents might become distorted. (Beeswax does not hold scent well naturally so scent fading is normal)

• FLAME IS TOO BIG — If the flame is overly large, blow out the candle and trim the wick before relighting. If the wick is too high, it will consume more wax, become hotter, and flicker erratically.
• FLAME IS TOO SMALL — Carefully absorb some of the melted wax with a paper towel if the flame is too small; doing so should enable more of the wick to be exposed and the candle to be relit (we suggest blowing out the flame beforehand to reduce fire risk).
