10 Candle Hacks Every Spa-Lover Needs to Know Before Lighting That Wick

If you are looking to burn a bunch of candles at the same time (which we absolutely recommend for the total spa experience), keep them at least three inches apart.

“When the flames of different candles get too close to each other, they can affect each other’s burn. You can see they will start to burn towards each other, affecting the overall performance of the candle,” explained Rossi.

If you do want to layer the scents, place them in different spots around the house. “The combination works just as well; in fact it creates more unique combinations: for example, a citrus candle, like Fresh’s Citron de Vigne candle, with rich woods, like Cannabis Santal candle,” recommended Roytberg.
