1、 Prepare materials

Soy wax or beeswax: As the basis for candles, choose environmentally friendly and stable burning wax.

Aromatherapy essential oils: Choose fragrances according to personal preferences, such as lavender, lemongrass, sandalwood, etc. Wancheng Fragrance Crafts provides a wide variety of essential oils that are suitable for various preferences.

Candle mold: It can be a traditional cylindrical shape or a creatively shaped mold, adding personality to the candle.

Candle wick and holder: Ensure that the candle wick is stable and burns evenly.

Measuring cup, stirring rod, thermometer (optional): used for precise measurement and stirring.

Pigments (optional): Add color to candles.

2、 Detailed explanation of steps

1. Preheat the mold

Place the mold in the oven and preheat it at low temperature (about 50 ℃) for a few minutes to prevent cracking caused by rapid cooling of the wax solution when poured in.

2. Melting wax material

Cut an appropriate amount of soy wax or beeswax into small pieces and heat them in a pot with water until completely melted. Use a thermometer to control the temperature and avoid overheating that affects the effectiveness of the essential oil, usually kept at around 80 ℃.

3. Add essential oils and pigments

When the wax is slightly cooled to about 65 ℃, slowly add a few drops of aromatherapy essential oil and gently stir evenly. If pigments need to be added, they can also be added together and stirred evenly.

4. Fix the candle wick

Fix the candle wick in the center of the mold, ensuring that the wick is straight and not skewed, using a fixator or tape as an aid.

5. Pour in wax solution

Slowly pour the mixed wax solution into the mold to avoid the formation of bubbles. If there are bubbles, they can be gently punctured with a toothpick.

6. Wait for solidification

Place the mold in a well ventilated area and let it cool naturally until the wax is completely solidified. This process may take several hours to one night, please be patient.

7. Demoulding and trimming

After the candle has completely solidified, gently flip the mold and remove the candle. If necessary, a small knife can be used to trim the edges to make them more aesthetically pleasing.

3、 Enjoy the results

Now, your exclusive aromatherapy candle has been made! Ignite it and let the unique fragrance permeate the entire space, not only beautifying the environment, but also relaxing and calming the soul. Every burning is a tribute to a beautiful life.
