You are fabulous. Thank you for your channel. I was laughing when you said about buy the wrong wax & the candles being crap. I did this & added mica powder which clogged my wicks & failed my candles. I have quite a few unlite candles vessel's to strip out & start again. It's a Journey right ✅️ I'm loving it 😍

This is very useful tips that save alot time and money 😊 one request from my side is make one video of proper temperatures of melting ,mixing ,and pourning🎉 how much time we need to give a candle to set?

Thanks, unfortunately temperatures are unique to each wax and the candle maker environment (room temperature). So it is impossible to provide good advice on this I’m afraid except, you need to test.

Hi! Thanks for all the tips already! Can I ask what you think about waiting time before burning your self made candle? When you demould your candle, how long would you wait until you burn it? Looking forward for your answer

Hello, It depends on your wax curing time. But I would say at least 48h.

@@GlowedCandles Merci, Marion. Can I buy any hot gun (minimum watt, temperature range?)?

How and where do you find pillar candle wicks, everywhere i look there are very bad, small wicks wich burn horribly?

How can i heat my mold on the second pour when iam doing multicolor candle ?

May i know how peony candles are burned. I feel the botton most wax will be left without burning

What is your recommendation for best room temperature for pouring wax into the molds ? 🙏🏻

Depends on your wax and your pouring temperature. Usually wax doesn’t like the cold so the warmer the better but 18 - 20 degrees is what I aim for

Should you warm your containers as well if you are making container candles?

Depends on your wax really. Some yes, some no. It’s all trial and error with candles.

So how do you clean your molds? :)

What should I add to wax that candle burns longer

@GlowedCandles

Жыл бұрын

Nothing. Burn rate is based on your fragrance load and wick size. If it burns too fast your wick may be too big.

another way to look for the wax? I can't find it as pillar wax

@GlowedCandles

No.. there is two types container and pillar. You really need pillar was for those.

Unfortunately in Serbia we only have one supplier for pillar soy wax 😭

I used heat gun.after tissue. After i washed with dish soap. And still has find very thin layer of wax😬

Then you didn’t melt all the wax with the heat gun

When my kerasoy melts its reaches minimum 85 C. I dont understand how you can melt all wax till 75 C. Very interesting 🤔 does it depents on how big heat im using? I use medium. I bought pillar candles course, and i see that i knew almost everything already. But still millions of questions 😅 Most of youtubers say to pour FO at 75. And pour at 65-70. In the course she said to add FO at 65. And pour at 60. Temperature is so important but people saying different numbers. Who to believe 🤔

Do you mean that it doesn’t melt until it reaches 85 degrees Celsius?? Kerasoy melt point is 60 degrees!?!

When i make my candle i have 22 house temp. Then i preheat moulds. And i pour qt 65. And i use aliuminium foil to keep it worm. And i tap moulds. And guess what....i still have bubbles and frosting 😬🤧
