step-by-step instructions

step 1: prepare your materials

Gather all your materials and make sure your wax melt moulds are clean, dry and ready to use.

step 2: melt the wax

Heat your A27 Performance Soy Blend Wax to approximately 85°C until completely melted.

step 3: add the candle dye

Add approximately 1 g of candle dye per 100 g of wax, depending on your desired colour intensity. Stir thoroughly to ensure the dye is evenly distributed.

step 4: add the fragrance oil

Add 10% fragrance oil to your melted wax, provided this is permitted by the fragrance’s IFRA guidelines.

For example, for a 100 g batch, use 90 g of wax and 10 g of fragrance oil.

step 5: stir for 2 minutes

Stir the mixture gently but thoroughly for approximately 2 minutes to ensure the fragrance oil is evenly blended into the wax.

step 6: pour into your moulds

Immediately pour the melted wax into your chosen wax melt moulds. Fill each cavity carefully and evenly.

step 7: allow the wax melts to set

Leave your wax melts undisturbed at room temperature for at least 24 hours to cool, harden and cure.

step 8: remove and enjoy!

Once fully hardened, carefully remove your wax melts from their moulds. Your beautifully scented wax melts are now ready to use in a suitable wax melt burner!

final tips

A27 Performance Soy Blend is an excellent choice for wax melts thanks to its firmer consistency and good fragrance performance.

 

Always check the IFRA documentation for your chosen fragrance oil and test your finished wax melts before offering them for sale.

 

Happy wax melt making!
