Once this is done, place a candle on top, so that you can take the correct measurements so that you can then cut the tube to the same length as the candle.

Continue the process by cutting the part of the tube that is the same length as the candle on its side and opening it.

You will now need a simple paper towel, which you will need to use to clean the inside thoroughly, in order to effectively remove all the remaining toothpaste. At this point, wrap the candle in part of the open part of the tube, but only to a certain extent because then you will have to cut off the remaining part of the packaging.

Then close the lid made on the candle with silicone. All you have to do is do the following test.

End effect: that’s it

Take the candle with the lid you made by hand, light it, and place it next to another candle that is lit without the lid. With this test you will be able to see with your own eyes the effectiveness of the makeup you have just done. For what?

Because you will be able to see how much more durable the wing covered by protection is than the simple one without protection.

The latter will melt much faster than the other.
