When you light the candle for the first time, let it burn for at least 3-4 hours to melt the top layer for an even burn. On the first burn, the wooden wick may take a few minutes of lighting to catch fire and burn on its own. Always trim the the wick before each use.
The wooden wick is natural, and it is possible that it releases some beige colour in the wax once the candle solidifies after burning. This is completely normal.
