Frequently asked questions
The main ingredient used in scented candles is wax. There are many types of wax that can be used, but the most common types are paraffin wax, soy wax, and beeswax.
When choosing the right type of wax, consider the melting point, hardness, and scent throw. Paraffin wax has a high melting point and is hard, making it ideal for candles that need to retain their shape. Soy wax has a lower melting point and is softer, which makes it easy to work with and creates a smooth finish. Beeswax has a natural, sweet scent and is hard, but has a lower melting point than paraffin wax.
In addition to wax, you will need a candle wick, a heat source such as a hot plate or stove, a pot to melt the wax in, fragrance or essential oils, and color pigments if you want to add color to your candles.
Fragrance can be added to candles in the form of fragrance oils or essential oils. It is important to use fragrance oils that are specifically designed for candle making, as other types of fragrance oils may not be safe to burn. Add the fragrance oil to the melted wax and stir well to ensure it is fully incorporated.
Yes, you can add decorations to your scented candles to make them more visually appealing. Popular decorations include dried flowers, glitter, and colored wax chips. However, be careful not to add too many decorations as they can affect the burning properties of the candle.
