During

burning

Wait for the wax to melt completely across the entire surface before putting out the candle. After the surface has completely melted, let the candle to continue burning for a maximum of one more hour.

Make sure that there are no drafts near the candle since these will make the flame flicker and create soot. The room should be properly ventilated, and the candle should be put out right away if any strange smoke arises.
