  1. Do you prefer the paraffin or parasoy blend? I have only experimented with paraffin and am not satisfied with the longevity of my melts! Wondering whether or not to make the leap into parasoy
  2. Hi everyone! This is my first time posting ! Over the past year, I have spent an atrocious amount of money purchasing wax tarts and melts from popular online vendors. Only about 50% of them were up to my 'standards,' but they all had one thing in common- they were parasoy. From everything I have read in this forum, the general consensus is that Paraffin throws stronger and longer, however, with my vendor experience this has not been the case. The parasoy blends have been the ones that throw the strongest and last the longest. I have decided that instead of purchasing from vendors, I would just like to make my own tarts for myself and friends (also thinking about maybe making wax for fundraisers). To start off with, I have tried two blends: 50/50 4627/4625 and 4627/4826. The results I got were mediocre at best. Some oils had a strong throw, but they fizzled out to a light/med throw in 4-6 hours. Can anyone tell me: A. Does parasoy increase longevity and throw (especially with bakery scents). B. Does anyone have any suggestions as to a few blends I could try to achieve at least 8-12 hours of strong hot throw and then at least another 12-15 hours of medium throw. I've been thinking about trying 6006/4625, 6006/4794, 3022/4625. Also willing to try out ecosoya and golden brand blends if needed. I know it is possible to achieve a great throwing long lasting tart- just don't want to spend an arm and a leg testing since I am just making for myself. Any help would be greatly appreciated . Ofcourse, I don't expect people to publicly share their super secret secrets, but like I said before I am just making for myself. I have a lot of respect for business owners, but I know running a business is not for me! Please feel free to PM me if you're more comfortable with that! Thanks in advance to any advice you may have for me! p.s. merry xmas to everyone celebrating!!
