Aww I tried to pack as much info as I could in under 5 mins! Thank you for watching hunny! 💛
Thank you! So needed this for starting a candle business
Ayyy! Good luck with it!!
Thank you so much! I have just started and bought 464. I have realised now that the purpose is different (woops). Thanks for clarifying!
I think we have ALL made this mistake before 😂 hope it goes well!
@@KIMALONDON Definitely, thank you! It has now confirmed my need to also sell container candles HAHA
subscribed! you've such a lovely personality even when you're talking about the subject in such a simple way :-) brb binging your vids rn!
Aw thank you so much! I'm glad I could add value !! xx
Omg
Why didn't I find this video already?!!!!!! THANK U SO MUCH GIRL
You are a life saver. Thanks alot. I thought my torso came out soft because of the amount of fragrance I used. It was too soft and oily. So even the next set with less fragrance may not even make a difference. Thanks again 😊
Trial and error hunny! I'm so glad to hear it's worked out for you! 💛
Thanks for making this video! Very insightful - hopefully loads of other people will benefit from this valuable video!! I actually bought one of the coffee candles from your store, it's SO good! 😍 also, you're a natural in front of camera - teach meeeee! 👸🏻
Thank you! Glad you like your soap. Come back for your restock!!
Thank you so much you have made it so simple to understand about what wax’s to use love it 🙌🏾🙌🏾
You are so welcome! Glad I could help 💛
I tried c3. Hated it! Had the worst ht and frosting. Just ordered the kerax kerasoy thank you!💕
Hope it goes well! 💛
Omg! Thank you so much for this!! I literally had so much problem with soy wax as I didnt know there are so many types! Thank you for this!
I'm glad my video could help you!!! 💛
Thank you for making this video. It helps a lot for a new beginner.
I'm so glad it helps you!
I want to thank you so much I’m about to embark on the candle business journey and you have helped a lot wish to both but successful
This makes me so happy to read! I know I'm late but I hope it's going well for you! 💛
I just made my 1st candles with C-3 in small glass containers. I had no fluff or shrinkage. I poured just after 182 degrees because I forgot to cool. Worked out. Would have had a 15 hour burn except the metal on the wick is too tall and left about a 1/4 inch of wax.
No way! Everyone preps differently so I'm glad it worked out well for you!
she's so pretty
You are! 💛
Thank u so much. U have no idea how helpful this video was to me. ❤️
Glad it helped!!! I know how it can be trying to find helpful information thats not in the form of a 40 minute video !!
New subscriber 😊🙈
Hey girl ,thanks a lot for your videos special this one ,it make sense all you said and make me understand where I was doing wrong with my mauld candles when I did it today 🤦♀️
Hiii Ellena! I'm so happy you've found my videos helpful! Hope you're candles are coming out as you want now! xx
Thank you so much for making this video, it was extremely helpful!
I’ve been testing with c3 with coco1 with wooden wicks and so far I haven’t had any problems :) I tried 464 but I didn’t like the way it dried after burning. Maybe if I put coco1 with 464 it would make a difference !
Where could I find coco1 new to the business and realized I bought the wrong wax ?
Good to know, thanks!
Awesome video , Hello I'm a traditional textile artist from Nigeria, the candle wax we get here isn't as strong has before and they get weaken easily,we get to reuse them after dewaxing them , I need your advise on what to add to the candle to make it stronger . Thank you
Hi Damilola 👋🏼 Shoutout Nigeria! I'm guessing the hot weather doesn't help either - what wax are you currently using?
Hello, I have just started my candle project, but I am facing some problems when the wax hardens and I remove it from the mold, I find on the colored wax a layer of whiteness or impurities even though the mold is added and the wax is raw and good quality
I keep seeing everywhere that 464 is great but in the summer to use 444? Do you agree with that?
I've never tried the 444 wax tbh, but I know it has a higher melting point than the 464 so it makes sense if they say it's better for hotter weather!💛
Thank you for taking the time to give us this information. I am new to this. My dilemma is that I have the original NGI Ecosoya PB soy wax that I am going to use in glass containers that are only 2.25 inches in diameter with a straight edge. I have been testing and so far the wax is not pulling away from the container/glass. My problem is finding the correct wick for full melt pool without getting to hot. I am using what I have that only says, "primed 8oz", and I have no idea what that means. From what I have read, I am thinking I should try a size 12-14? Also is there a definitive or correct way to soften the wax a wee bit. I tried both refined and unrefined coconut oil, but am not there yet, and it seemed more coconut oil did not allow a wider melt pool.
YOU ARE JUST AMAZING
Thank you Kim this information was very helpful 😊😊
Omg, you're so helpful!! Thank you so much :)!
Thank YOU for watching! xx
Just found your video…. THANK YOU!
Thank you for this! Very helpful! 🧡
Thank you so much! This helped me a lot!
Glad it helped!
this is so helpful thank you oml
Happy to help!
Thank you very much
so helpful and clear. thank you so much! any pillar wax that you recommend for candle molds? thank you
I use kerasoy! But you can also use coconut pillar wax or even just paraffin pillar wax if you're not fussed about using vegan :)
😍😍😍 i just started a month ago. Ive never had that happen to the c3 ive used. But hows the HT with 464?
I love it! Much better than my experience with the C3
I used pillar for molds but its breaking to much and it doesnt work great
Thank you 🌻
You are so welcome!!
Ive got myself 464 and 494 to make container candle,, I didn't know 494 works only for wax melts,, can I try it out for pillar candles too !??
I believe if you use 494 as pillar wax, it might not burn as well as it will clog up the wick! But this might be your excuse to give wax melts a go?? 👀
Really great!
Thank you babe for the tips 😘❤️
Glad I could help!! xx
thank you so so much for this! I’ve been learning a lot but was having such a hard time to find the perfect wax for my skull candles which needed to stand up like your example! I really appreciate it ❤️❤️
Glad I could help! Skull candles are cool, you can play around with so many colours!
Hi girl, I'm doing skulls and I keep having bubbles on the top of the head. I'm going insane I've literally tried every temperature so I'm thinking it's the %100 soy wax I bought from amaZon
@@ranasawah9198 if you’re using silicone molds don’t forget to heat up the mold before you pour! :)
@@firepowerrr3 hello thanks for ur reply I bought a heat gun from Amazon, how long should I heat them for? Until they are warm? Thanks xx
very helpful, didn't even know.
thanks!
What's the best wax grade for frosting? To make whipped wax?
How do I get the raw wax material as well as the silicone molds, thank you 🌹🌹
Do you mean the candle waxes? I will show you where I get my moulds in the next video ! 💛💛
@@KIMALONDON yes i mean the candle waxes 👍🌹🌹
I need paraffin wax for making candles can you tell me which wax is better for making candles
I've never tried using paraffin wax I'm afraid :( Only soy wax!
Thank you so much. Now I know … luckily I just bought 464. Not 494 😅
Hi, I just started my small business and purchased soy wax flakes. I don't even know there are types in Soy wax as well like 464 and other numbers. The pillar wax isn't available in my country too. How would I know which type is mine? I can use this wax flakes on moulds and I didn't see issues like breakage or any. I'm just worried after seeing your video now. It was clear and thank you but could you please help me what can I do to make them better like can I add any other wax other than paraffin to get better pillar candles
Thank you so much for sharing
So helpfull thnk u
My pleasure 😊
what soy wax is best for crayons?
Hey! I’ve only just started making candles and I do women body’s too! I was wondering can you advice where you order your kerasoy wax? Also any tips how to make these candles skinny not with frosted effect? Thank you!
Hi !! Where are you from? So I can let you know which suppliers ship to your country and the frosted effect all depends on the wax you use and temp you pour at! Message me on IG if it's easier!
What about shipping to Georgia I’m the U.S?
@@KIMALONDON what about Europe
For pillar candle i can use 494?
Nooo use 464! 494 will clog the wick x
Hi, what temp do you add Fragrance oil with soy 464?
Hi Alicia! I add FO at 150/160°
@@KIMALONDON Thank you! Do you have a good hot throw? I feel like soy is difficult.
Good afternoon madam😊👋
Watching from Philippines 😊🌟 n
Helloooo Philippines! 🇵🇭🇵🇭💛💛
Hello mam ☺️
Anyone used rapeseed and coconut wax for melts?
Yes, I have :) Prefer it to soy wax
I might be a bit late 👀 but rapeseed is SUPER HARD! (the texture)
Your pretty
Thank you! I'm just getting started and have been using 464. People say they have a lot of problems but it's been working well for me so far (smooth tops, no craters, etc.). I did just get a sample of C3 and C6 to try. Have you tried Soy #10? I hear that it's amazing.
I wish I started off with 464! I've never actually heard of Soy #10 - if either of us end up trying it lets let each other know the results!
Hi do you mind sharing what temp you add Fragrance oil for 464? Thanks
Can I use 464 for melts?
I would uses 494 :)
Thanks for the helpful video! I bought Kerasoy pillar wax based on your advice but i had a problem when I used it for the first time, it cools sooo quickly 😭 I can’t even measure the temperature to add FO and colors bc temperature drops down soo fast !! Any advice? It was written that not to heat it above 85 but what im supposed to do?
Thank you for your short video! It helped me so much and it answered all of my questions! Is there any preference in brand or store? Maybe depending on which has a better price and good quality at the same time?
Thank you so much!! I was leaning towards C3 but now you've got me changing my mind 😂😂
Hi Kim! C3 is good but it definitely frosts a lot more (if you're going to use colouring) I think you should order a small amount (100g) and test it for yourself - It might work wonders for you!
@@KIMALONDON Thank you so much!! Very informational video!!
Can I used 464 for molds?
Use pillar wax!
Thank you so much!!! You have no idea how this video has helped me!! Like OMG!! THANK YOU!!!!!!
Wooooo!! Glad it helped! I'd love to see your work!!
So useful!! Thank you so much for making this video!
Glad it was helpful!!
thank you! great video !
I am a new subscriber and I am so grateful that I came across your video on point very precise got the information I’ve been searching for thank you so much but one question what is the best website to buy 464
Welcome to the youtube family! Thank you so much for subbing! I can help you with that - what country do you live in ?
I'm in business and was asked to source these products. Had 0 background on all of this.
Thanks for making it short and sweet.
Good luck
Glad it was helpful! If you need any more advice drop me a message!
Best video out here for wax knowledge
Glad I could help!!
It's a shame that the subtitle option is not active, it was just the theme I was looking for, but I don't understand your language.
I will look into this!
Hey Quick question I live in the US and I’m having a hard time finding a good pillar wax any suggestions?
Have you tried candle science? or Randalls? 💛
Thank you, have just started out and had some issues with fragrance hold, but realised I ordered C3, am sure I need 464. Great video
I hope 464 worked out okay for you!
I like the video, thank you for putting it together Thank you for your time.
Thank you for watching! 💛
Hey I’ve just started making pillar candles. Do you think 464 would be suitable for that? Kerasoy pillar is not available here :/
Hey! 464 is a container wax so its best for candles in jars, tins, etc* How about coco pillar wax or rapeseed pillar wax?
@@KIMALONDON will try out! Thanks! :)
I have tried a lot of waxes. The C6 is amazing. Just got a shipment of C1.
I need to try those!
thank you for sharing.. it helped me so much!!
Glad it helped! 💛
Thank you. Would you recommend mixing container wax maybe 25% of it to pillar wax to creat molds?
Hello! I haven't tried this myself but I think the best way would be to experiment? Also if you do decide to mix it, there may be a chance of the candle becoming too soft either when you take it out the mold or when you leave it sitting on the shelf and it becomes discoloured or an uneven texture.
@@KIMALONDON thank you. I tried it yesterday and I love the results I used 20 to 80 ratio
@@mpoetsiramolahlehi7131 ayyyy nice!! Glad it worked out for you!
This is very good to know...I just listened to your talk...its very informative👏👏👏
Heyy, I made a candle but when I demold it there’s some wax sticking to the mold, which is giving a little unsmooth surface to the candle. Should I increase or decrease my pouring temp ?
You are a gem. Thank you so much!
Appreciate you watching! xx
Thank you for the information. I choose soy pillar wax for right choice. But I am having a trouble for make them smell good when it burns. When you add fragrance dose it smell good when it burns? 😢
THAAANK YOUUUU ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank for all info but I still want to know what kind of wax i need for pillar candle. I don’t want try all wax I watch so many videos but still only explain not saying and wax kind. Please just give me name and I will use that thank you
Hello, can you tell me why does the wax get cloudy and start to form back while it’s in the jug and I’m waiting for it to reach the pouring temp. :/
Hi 👋🏼 Which wax are you using? Also it depends if you're making your candle in a cold enviroment ☀️
You are so sweet and genuine. Love your content girlie keep it up
Thank you so much!! This means a lot 💛
thank you!!!
glad I could help!
