step by step proces:
- Prepare your vessel – Clean the inside of your Small Vogue jar to remove any dust or fingerprints.
- Secure the wick – Attach a wick sticker to the base of your wick and position it firmly in the centre of the jar.
- Melt the wax – Gently heat your wax using a suitable wax melter until completely melted.
- Weigh your wax – Measure 165.6g of wax using a digital scale, making sure to tare the container first.
- Check the temperature – Allow the melted wax to reach approximately 65°C before adding fragrance.
- Add your fragrance – Weigh 14.4g of fragrance oil (8% of the total candle weight) and stir gently for 2–3 minutes to ensure proper blending.
- Cool before pouring – Let the wax cool to 55–60°C, or the recommended pouring temperature for your wax.
- Pour your candle – Carefully pour the mixture into the prepared vessel, leaving approximately 1cm of space at the top.
- Centre the wick – Use a wick centring tool to keep the wick straight and securely positioned.
- Allow to set – Leave the candle undisturbed at room temperature for 24 hours.
- Trim the wick – Remove the centring tool and trim the wick to approximately 5mm.
- Perfect the finish – If necessary, gently smooth the surface using a heat gun.
Your Small Vogue candle is ready!
Allow at least 48 hours before burn testing and ideally 5–7 days of curing for optimal fragrance performance, depending on the wax used. Always follow the wax manufacturer’s temperature recommendations and conduct a full burn test before use or sale.
