    Essential oils should be avoided. Use fragrance oils (pre-made blends), or ideally, if you have the skills, make your own fragrance oil using aroma chemicals which are suitable for candles.

    My husband and I just took a bunch of wax left over from other candles and sorted them by color. Then poured back into jars. We are not picky about temp. as long as it is melted and smells good. Still have to top them off. We have candles!!! ... might not be centered perfectly but, Oh well!!! 😛

      Stirring always helps but nice and slow, as not to get air bubbles. To be honest in my experience the longer you cure your candles the better they bind with the scent 👍

      You mean the tops of the candles? If they dip thats normal. Wax shrinks as it cools and you just need to run a heat gun over the tops to smooth them back out.

    b) what % of essential oils was that (x%)
    c) at what temperature you added the essential oil to the wax (x° Degrees Celcius)
    d) at what temperature you poured (x° Degrees Celcius)
    Make sure to specify:
    1) what type of wax you used (if 100% soy, when possible, specify if it's 464, 444, etc.)
    2) are you sure your essential oils were 100% pure? (Y/N)
    3) what essential oil you used (lavender, eucaliptus, patchouli, etc.)
    4) If you have already figured out the wick size and all the rest. (Y/N) (This so that we can be sure that this is not interfering with your results)

    This was great, thanks, I been tryin to find out about "recipe for scented soy candles" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Cenadoelyn Candle Contemplation - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my work buddy got amazing success with it.

      This is glorious, I been tryin to find out about "what do i need to make candles at home?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Panlijah Inconceivable Position - (should be on google have a look ) ? It is a good one of a kind guide for discovering how to become a candle making master and turn a profit without the headache. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my mate got cool results with it.
