How to add scent to candle sand?
Fragrance or essential oil can be added to candle sand wax before it is lit. For safety reasons, we advise against adding any flammable fragrances or oils to candle sand wax. Some fragrance oils may amplify the flame, so if fragrance is added, consider making the wick shorter than 1cm above the wax. Gradually add fragrance to candle sand wax, ensuring thorough mixing and continuous testing for both effectiveness and safety.
How to colour a sand candle?
When dying sand wax, it's important to use dyes that are specifically made for candle-making to ensure they blend well with the wax and do not affect burning properties. Gradually add colour dye to candle sand wax, ensuring thorough mixing and constant testing for both colour intensity and safety.
