How to Properly Blend Essential Oils into Candle Wax?
Melt your soy wax slowly until it reaches 185°F.
Remove from heat and allow it to cool slightly — add essential oils around 160°F to preserve their natural properties.
At Karessa Candles, we hand-pour each luxury soy candle with utmost care to ensure the oils retain their natural aroma and therapeutic qualities.
How Much Essential Oil Should You Use in Organic Candles?
Essential oils are more delicate than fragrance oils.
Use around 6–8% of the wax weight for a safe and effective scent load.
For example, for 500g of wax, add about 30–40g of essential oils.
This creates a beautiful, subtle fragrance like the one in our hand-poured organic candles.
What Are the Best Essential Oils for Candles?
Some of the most popular essential oils for candle making include:
-
Lavender
-
Eucalyptus
-
Lemongrass
-
Peppermint
-
Sweet Orange
Each oil brings a unique scent profile and therapeutic benefit — just like our range of eco-friendly candles.
