Can You Add Fragrance to Remelted Wax?
Yes, but with a caution!
Since old wax already contains fragrance, adding more can sometimes lead to an overpowering or off-balanced scent.
That’s why every luxury soy candle at Karessa Candles is carefully measured for a perfect fragrance load!
What New Candle Containers Can You Use?
When remelting wax, you can pour it into:
-
Small glass jars
-
Ceramic cups
-
Tin containers
-
Any heat-resistant vessels
