I love them, but wanted to find someone in Australia and I found you. You seem like a lovely person that is willing to help anyone. You're set up is amazing. I've just launched my candle business a few weeks ago. You said that you used to use 464 and now are using pure soy. Could I ask what wax you use? Keep being amazing.

Where do you buy the sprinkles from and are there certain ones you need to use in the candles? With the Eroma wooden wicks you use do they make a nice crackling noise when burning? as I have heard a few people say the ones they have used don't make nice crackling noises anymore so they stopped using wooden wicks and I would love to use the wooden wicks but it put me off a bit.

Hi Rhonda :-) do you find that when burning the s100 pure soy wax with the wood wicks that after the candle is blown out and left to reset that the wax has a brown tinge to it? Even with no fragrance I seem to have this happening. Thanks :-)
@NelsonInteriorSoapery 2 жыл бұрын
I’ve noticed brown but the tips are rough and there is a colour change. My ivory candles left a light mint colour so I think the fragrance may change it which is strange. I feel that the smooth look and limited frosting is a plus so I think I will still stick with it. I give out a flyer that says it’s natural and bumpy tips after burn may happen so maybe a discolouration part may also be in the info to
