How do you clean a dirty candle?

I have a candle that the sides are white birch which looks fine. However the top portion is candle wax and is partially burned down so not flat. The problem is it's been store and the wax portion is dirty with dust and bits of dirt. I'm curious what is your favorite method of cleaning the candle up?

You can use hand-sanitizer wipes instead, as long as they're not alcohol-free.
My sink scrub brush and a little sudsy water. Tip upside down. Obviously not right before you want to light it. Wick will be wet.
Hi, just use a damp paper towel and wipe it down to remove the unsightly dust and grime, make sure it is dry before you light it.
I wash mine with cold water. But it sounds like yours needs to be scrubbed. How about one of those kitchen net scrubbers?
