How do I clean my empty candle jars for reuse? – diptyque USA

The "Second life" accessories should be used exclusively for empty glass candle jars. A candle is finished when there is no more than 5mm of wax left or when the metal plate that supports the wick is visible.

Here is a quick and easy way to remove all the wax residue when your candle is used up:

Wait until the candle has cooled, then place it in the freezer overnight.
The next day, remove the candle from the freezer and let it sit for 1 hour.
Turn the glass jar upside down and tap the bottom with the palm of your hand. The slice of wax that has shrunk should fall out. Use a spoon handle to help if necessary.
If the metal plate holding the wick is still stuck to the bottom of the glass jar, you can pull it out with pliers.
Finally, wipe out the inside of the glass candle jar with a damp cloth and soap.
When the glass candle jar is empty, clean and dry, attach the accessories.
