How To Make Your Own Super Strong Wax Melts At Home

[@MrMagoo-no5lb]

I got sick of spending alot on these and decided to save some money and make my own. I believe it has backfired, a lot of my family are requesting them now LOL. I like your tutorials on making them strong, as I love the really strong scented tarts. They fill the whole home and smell so great!

[@milktoasttt]

Same here! It costs so much but I love my scents. I haven't started yet though. Is there anything you recommend?

[@jessicastro5453]

I don't normally watch these types of videos but this I really liked. You were very detailed and made it look so simple. Now I want to make some!

[@ivyleague3224]

That's cool that you hit the scents heavy, so tired of buying wax melts that fool ya with a nice scent but lack in performance, which is why I'm here to start doing it myself. Thanks

[@ivyleague3224]

I opted to just leave the wax in the warmer and add the candle oil to it with an eye dropper

This was great, thanks, I have been researching "how much fragrance do i add to soy wax?" for a while now, and I think this has helped.

[@RobertUnger-cu7kp]

Thanks SO much! This is exactly what I was looking for! Answered all my questions! 😁 In my case though, for home use I always put the same amount in my melter every time (three tabs). So I will try to find some small, round puck mold to make a one use piece! Again, thank you for taking the time to post this video!!!

Me too, I have a bunch of scents I can't use in soaps and butters

[@kcbaker02]

I’ve had horrible luck making wax melts for some reason. I followed the instructions and every time, they don’t smell like anything. I’ve been recycling my screw-ups into fire starters for our camping trips and for lighting the wood burner 😂 Just add sawdust! After watching this like 3 times, I purchased all the stuff you use and I’m going to give it another try. I think my biggest mistake was using essential oils instead of fragrance oils. Thanks for this comprehensive video!

[@carolynmcevoy5926]

Thanks for explaining why you used 50% soy and 50% paraffin wax. I've purchased scores of wax melts only to be frustrated when I try to pop out ONE square and it gets all mushy (and my condo is never warm). I was hoping you'd show us as you popped out the wax from the container---and sure enough--- I was HAPPY to see that it popped out cleanly and stayed intact as you broke it up. EXCELLENT. I will NEVER buy another container of wax mets - I'll make my own. Thanks very much for this video.

[@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany]

You are welcome! This is an excellent wax for wax tarts. And so easy to use! I am glad you found this video useful!

Do you need to let the melts cure at all or are they good to go as soon as they’re set up? Also, what wattage bulb are you using and how long did it take for the cubes to melt? Thanks!!

I usually let mine cure for 5-7 days if they are made with soy wax or a soy wax blend because soy wax usually gets stronger as it cures for at least some time. I hope that helps. :)

[@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany]

Hi, I have noticed sometimes when this company is sold out of something, temporarily it will be off of their website. You should email them and ask when it will be back in stock.

[@shellywarrender3013]

I followed your instructions exactly!! I used the same wax and FO from Candlescience. My cold throw is great but absolutely NO hot throw😪 What could I have done wrong?

[@sandymclean9630]

Fo needs to be added while the wax is hot about 175° F + for it to bind tog. If the wax cools more than that... it often doesn't bind and the scent is very low my thoughts

[@wenchology]

Make sure you are stirring fragrance in long enough, 2 min. To bind it to the wax. 🙏❤️

[@msgodiva1000]

The drop of YELLOW you use for color is it food coloring or something else? Also can i use any old pot to heat up the wax?

Hi there, could you tell me if you use the same fragrance and essential oils in candles as you use in soaps? Thank you.

[@SunshineSoapandCandleCompany]

Not all fragrance and essential oils are skin safe, so you can't use them in soap making. There are lots of fragrances on the market that are skin safe and you can use any of these in soap and candle making. You just have to look when you are buying them to make sure they are skin safe fragrance or essential oils.
