Open the pack, remove the wick, holder, and stickers, then reseal; microwave the sealed pouch in 30–45s bursts or warm it in simmering, not boiling water until fully liquid — do not exceed 80 °C. Center and stick the wick tab in a clean, dry, room-temp heat-safe jar, keep the wick upright, and pour, leaving ~1 cm headspace (use two wicks if the jar is wider than ~8 cm).
Let set 2 hours, trim the wick to ~8 mm, and light; first burn 2–3 hours for an edge-to-edge melt.
The Mylk Pack is a refill only. Pour it into any clean, heat-safe vessel you love (glass, ceramic, metal) or top up a Mylk candle you already own. We’ll share updates if standalone jars become available.
Our 240 ml size candle averages ~50 hours of burn time. To squeeze out every minute: let the first burn reach a full edge-to-edge pool, keep the wick at ~5 mm, avoid drafts and cap each session at ≤4 hours.
No special tools. Scented wax, two cotton wicks, and a wick holder are included in the package.
You just need a microwave-safe mug (or a pot of simmering water) to melt the pouch, a clean, dry heat-safe jar at room temperature for making your candle, and scissors to trim the wick.
Yes — in short 30–45s bursts, upright in a microwave-safe container. Stop when wax is fully liquid or at 65–75 °C for best results; do not overheat past 80 °C.
- Let it cure: Your candle is ready to burn in 2–3 hours once the wax is fully set, but we recommend waiting at least 48 hours before lighting for better scent throw.
- First burn matters: Give the first burn 2–3 hours to reach a full melt pool — this prevents tunneling.
- Match wick to jar: Use one wick for jars ≤8 cm wide; use two wicks for wider jars, spaced evenly.
- Trim every time: Keep the wick at 6-8 mm before each burn to reduce soot and mushrooming.
- Mind the session length: Burn 4 hours max at a time;
- Control the environment: Burn on a heat-safe, level surface, away from drafts for an even melt.
- Pouring pointers: Pour into a room-temperature jar and leave ~1 cm headspace; don’t move the jar until fully set.
- Store smart: Keep finished candles cool, covered, and out of direct sun to preserve fragrance and color.
