I swear this is the most underrated KZbin bio ever!! You took the time to research all the places that people can buy their goods😭😭😭 You are so precious😭😭😭 I don't even stay in America yal better be thankful for this sweet man😭😭😭

[@srssca38]

Loved the dramatic pause after you said Or....... a nice romantic treat for your loved one. Thanks again for a great video!

[@BrendaBodwin]

Speaking of me being new to candles....IE; my other comment Not for business. I'm in the process if making bath and body sets for a veterans group. They asked me to make 200 gift sets with homemade soap, lotion, candle, bath bomb, bath salt, & a lip balm to give to the veterans. As you know these homemade products are expensive, and many can't afford them. I made all of these products separately, and, donated them in the past, except, the candles. THANK YOU for such great teaching. I am not a candle maker, and it's not just melt, color scent and pour. It's a very real craft/art form. I'm still watching and learning, but, hopefully by the time I make the sets, I'll know how to do it. Thank you Thank you. 😁

[@brandypayne8781]

I have a recipe I’ve used recently for massage candles and it was 16oz of Wax and 12 oz of combined cocoa butter and carrier oils. I tweaked it to this recipe and I’m so very pleased with it. Much much better combination of wax and oils and butters with your recipe. Thank you for sharing.

[@LFly2011]

This is amazing. I can't wait to try it!

[@iamorecandles]

I love watching your videos ❤

[@kcookejr]

Very helpful once again! Thanks so much!

[@AmberRain1980]

You're a great instructor. Thank you.

[@shalondacooper4328]

This was so good Tim!! A great tutorial, simple with great demonstrations!! God bless your business!

[@jenniferalmonor1981]

Thank you so much, one of the best videos out there of making massage oil candle. Thank you for the list of items 😊

[@Minnettescandlesandessentials]

Luv this easy version! Thanks for making this video! Your personality is awesome!

[@shannaelizabeth_1]

LOL Tim you are the best... That pause at the end had me dying!

[@anti-victimGenX]

Love this one. Thanks mate.

[@tamaracole7639]

loved it so quick and simple.

[@ssmars39]

You're awesome brother !

[@enrikapacesaite5382]

Just great! Thank you.

[@sjordan3996]

Thank you Tim!! I have watched several videos and by far this is the best. Big thanks for the recipe and the list of where one can purchase supplies, listed by state. I am so excited to try making massage candles!!!

[@brendanurre1517]

This was Awesome Tim, thank you as always for your time and videos.

[@TimberRidgeGifts]

Thanks for watching!

[@dayannachristmon8123]

Love the ending🤣❤

[@jenni5075]

This was exactly what I needed and the ending 😂🤣😂 whew

[@Zay-lr6pr]

Thank you so much. I can’t find unscented cocoa butter anywhere and I always use cocoa butter with Shea butter but this helped me a lot

[@SimplyKrissy88]

Cocoa butter is naturally scented to smell like chocolate which is probably why

[@beautyjacob4820]

Awesome

[@TimberRidgeGifts]

Thanks for watching!

[@jeffreegarcia1039]

I think that ending made me fall in love with you lol lol lol.

[@BrendaBodwin]

I may be new to candles but, I'm a 35 year soap and body product makers. Cocoa butter is really nice, and healthy, but, Shea is much healthier for the skin. Just saying. Can you do this with both?? Both would be even better. Also if your using a pure essential oil, you have to be sure it's skin safe as well. The aroma essential oils are NOT usually skin safe. They should say x3 or higher for skin safe, which means they have been distilled 3 times or more. Aromas have only been distilled once, and can be very irritating to skin. For FOs just look for soap safe. That means they are skin safe.

[@user-qu4ve6fx4x]

That's y you use the carrier oil so you don't get the skin irritation from the essential oils I believe

[@Thecoochiedoctor]

Can you use a massage oil base?

[@nineteenco.candlescandles3799]

How would you add CBD?

[@Lovelymadee_]

Tim could I add less carrier oil? I tried this and it never tried stayed watery

[@j.k.912]

Hi, for the carrier oil are you measuring in fluid ounces?

[@ryanbee93]

How long does it take for the candle to solidify?

[@keyamoore8031]

Good Video. Which Soy Wax did you use or recommend?

[@childsboutique7155]

@timberridgegifts do you think this recipe would work as wax melts?

[@angeeyc]

Quick question, once the it reaches the melt pool, and if I dont use the melted oil completely for massaging purposes, will it go back to its solid form?

[@kimberlysperry1484]

Hello, Do wait till you have a full melt before you blow out your candle? If so what is the time it takes for a full melt pool? I make mine with a wooden wick and takes approximately 20 minutes. Thanks for answering my question.

[@aestheticjawn]

do you have to use soy wax for these candles or can you use parasoy?

[@mightbemimi]

What's the scent throw like?

[@ken9415]

Hey Tim can you do a video on wick testing? I have read so many things that just give me more questions than answers.

[@TimberRidgeGifts]

Stay tuned: gathering supplies and that will likely be my next video

[@mamabear71234]

good looking man

[@simsbrandi17]

Will the ingredients turn the candle colors due to it being in a tin container.?.meaning will it cause it to rust

[@redmeg36]

Is it supposed to give a hot throw at all when burning? Mine isn’t.

[@lisahu1138]

Can you do the same thing with BEESWAX and COCO BUTTER?

[@TimberRidgeGifts]

Hmmm, I haven't tried but my guess would be no. Perhaps with a cosmetic grade beeswax. But candle grade beeswax tends to have a tacky feel to it that may not work well when trying to rub it in to the skin.

[@sherinelocke2337]

What type of glue do you use for your glue gun?

[@charleneadams5043]

What type of soy wax did you use ?

[@chandaboo5986]

Which soy wax is best?

[@Biggrk_]

What kind of Wicks did you use ?

[@dysce.slyce.]

Can you use coconut wax as an alternative for the soy wax

[@Blumad3410]

Yea

[@rjroy005]

Where did you buy your shea and coco butter?

[@TimberRidgeGifts]

Amazon I believe.

[@angeliawelch9889]

How do you weight your oil and wax, I used your recipe but with shea butter and mine won't set up.

[@celetiawilliams5885]

I want to know as well i used the same ingredients but i used Shea butter and it’s still soft

[@jessicah7086]

@@celetiawilliams5885 I used Shea butter as well and mine doesn't set at all, it's completely liquid and cold..

[@alisonbaker1963]

Whatever happened to Tim? I miss his videos.

[@alexandrawalton1254]

Is there a particular brand of soy wax we should use? I use golden brand 444 for my candles, but I would like to use it for massage candles as well if that’s possible to do.

[@JiaLiHypnotherapy]

Is it ok to use both shea butter and coco butter? 16oz soy wax, 16oz cc butter and 16 shea butter 16 is of carrier oil??

[@sjt4689]

Decrease the volume of the recipe & test the blend you are questioning about until you get your own personal, preferred blend of butters & waxes.

[@Ayina1]

How do you come up with the equation? I would like to tweak this formula for a 4 or 6 oz tin.. how would I do that?

[@sharonatw]

So use 8 4 oz tins instead of 4 8 oz tins.

[@sjt4689]

Math & common sense 😂

[@Ayina1]

@@sjt4689 thanks smart ass! Your comment isn't needed I figured out the answer two years ago! Look at the date!

[@denisecameron8302]

I have a question if you or anyone on here can help me please, I made a massage candle with Gw 415, Shea butter, Coco butter, coconut oil, mango butter, & fragrance oil. Poured at 135, and cured 24 hrs, and my tops are not smooth, can someone please help me what am I doing wrong?

[@triniciaboyd3670]

Is the soy wax 464?

[@tammiejackson7961]

Did he use 464

[@LFly2011]

Since its made of soy wax, does it need to cure for a period of time before selling to a customer?

[@crabhouse5945]

1-2 weeks

[@mireillemarozzo6218]

🙏🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰

[@kydiah1102]

Have you tried using doterra essential oils they are the best essential oils I’ve ever used they work amazingly we have a dedicated to things like this ours are truly from plants, roots, trees, etc. store bought essential oils have other things mixed into them that isn’t from the plants and they tell you mostly not to put them on children ours you can I have put them on my child since he was born

[@TimberRidgeGifts]

+KyDiaH Skyes so you have a company that makes the essential oils? Feel free to drop a link to your website. I’d love to check them out! 😀

[@kydiah1102]

Timber Ridge Gifts it’s not my company I just buy from them my mom sells the oils for them her link is www.watervalleymom.com then click the tab of essential oils or you can go straight to their website doterra.com

[@sshiva6635]

Nice hands. . ..

[@removedfromthecorner6600]

Oh lord I don’t know what I did wrong but mine looked like white vomit with chunks. Ugh 😫

[@kirsten4896]

Make sure fragrance is skin safe. Not all candle scents are.

[@WalkInFreedom]

I tried it and make a mistake somewhere, it came out real oily...bummed

[@dulcealcala3077]

Me too. I can’t find anywhere how to troubleshoot. I tried arrowroot powder and steric acid with no luck
