This was great, thanks, I have been researching "how do you make homemade candles smell stronger?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Panlijah Inconceivable Position - (should be on google have a look ) ? It is an awesome exclusive guide for discovering how to become a candle making master and turn a profit minus the headache. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my cousin got cool success with it.

Love the wooden wick co options. I was wondering if you could use the apricot wax for wax sachets? I’m going to making several of them and including candles for my holiday gifts this Christmas. Thank you 😊

@makesyofficial 3 года назад

I would suggest the Beeswax Coco Creme for sachets since it's a bit harder! :)

@evelinepagnani4386 4 года назад

Thank you for your video. I am thinking of ditching the 464 Soy and trying a coconut / soy blend. I am more interested in using essential oils than fragrance oils which I don't like. Do you think EOs would give a better hot throw in soy/coconut?

@christybrooks3729 4 года назад

Look at the videos page. They have one about the use of EOs in their candle waxes. But just like soap, some of them will fade over time

So for pillar candles, what should be used that has the highest throw

I know for a fact, I wanna work with coconut wax, but not sure with one. I’m thinking of the apricot! With coconut holds the best fragrance?!

The VCS and CAC both hold fragrance very equally. Then it becomes about the ingredients and price point. Do you prefer having the soy or the apricot and which blend works best for your budget?

@@TyajaTamisha paraffin is not toxic. That rumor came from soy wax users to upsell soy wax. Don’t believe the hype.

@irinaivanovic9792 3 года назад

@@pee4452 That's not true. Paraffin is absolutely toxic. It is a leftover organic compound (fossil fuel) that is released into the atmosphere. Paraffin candles are so cheap because they are the most toxic and unsafe. This isn't made up hype, it's science backed, and don't blame it on soy candle makers. Soy isn't exactly safe either because just like paraffin it produces soot and is just one step above paraffin.

The Virgin Coconut Soy and Coco Apricot Creme have "minuscule" amounts of paraffin. The bees wax has none (according to the website).

Palm wax is a great option but it's important to use sustainable palm and mix it with a harder wax type as it's very soft on its own.

@@makesyofficial I am a tad confused as when I search for wax for pillar candles, the first few that come up are soy pillar candle wax. Does this work or are they just trying to charge more for normal soy wax. I am wanting to avoid unnatural waxes such as parrifin so I am not sure which wax to choose. Sorry for sounding so naive but this is a very new territory for me. Thank you for your help I deeply appreciate it.

@makesyofficial 3 года назад

@@evamooney2953 No worries! Yes pillar waxes can contain soy, but they also normally contain other waxes to make them harder, like paraffin or stearic acid. I hope this helps! You can also find all natural fortified soy pillar blends, just try searching that term!
