In your opinion, what is the top 10 scents?

Looks great. Keep up the good work.

I poured some candles Tuesday and they are seaping from the top. What do you think happened? I did everything the same! Could it have something to do with the weather changing? Using carill c-3.

I finally got my first real black candle!!!! :bliss:

Thanks sooo much.

Im using 11oz cargill c-4 wax and Ive tried Lonestars black. Anywhere from 4 to 15 drops and its dark gray. Then someone told me to use Barnlofts black dye and same thing?? I was told that this would do it but its not.Can someone please help out??????

Thanks!!!!

Hopefully you can give me some help.Thanks so much.

No I doesnt look layered. And I havent burned it yet. Some of them have bubbles and some dont in the same batch. Some have alot some is hardly any. They look white if that helps.If you want Ill send you a pic maybe you can help from that. Cause i really need help.

They are at the bottom mostly. Some middle way into candle.

Amy, I bought from Aroma haven and its an natural soy additive. Dont remember what it cost but it has helped with the sink holes, frosting and gives a smoother top. I guess I could live with the cracks but what I cant live with is the bubbles in the candle they are very very small but its a bunch of them together. Any advice on that??

Newbie here, I am still having problms with the tops of my candles. Ive bought an additive to help so know I dont have sink holes.(finally) But now I have a circle crack and my wax is crawling up the wick. ahhh! I have poured at many ,many diffrent temps and just cant seem to get it right. If any one is using this wax please give me some help. Im begging. Im doing this to help out my boss and dont want to fail. And I feel like Im failing. If any one would like to E-mail me to give some extra help please do hornermomof3@hotmail.com

Thanks sooo much.

Does anyone use this wax? IM having trouble with the tops of my candles. Finally rid of sink holes but now circle cracks.PLease help...

Thanks, Michele

Help please! I just poured 5 candles and have a crack around my wic. Im using cargill c-4 wax. And tried my first batch with a soy additive. Without the additive I was getting a rough top and a big circle crack on top. I poured at 115 b/c thats what the package says for the additive. I poured slow as I always do.It also say you can go down to 95 so I will go try that next. Thanks:D

Yes I have asked this already and was told t try 14 drops of black,(for 1pound soy wax)But my candle is still dark grey.Then I was told to use Barnloft color but you cant recive dyes from them till middle of Oct. Any other suggestions?? Please I need this asap... How about another company? I use lonestars dye.

Thanks;)

Im going to try that.14 drops of black dye, I just thought that would be too much dye and go up to the top. Thanks!

P.S. Still having trouble with a black candle. Using lonestars black dye, in 11oz soy wax cargill c4 all I get is dark grey, some one told me to try another company but they canot send dyes out til next month.

How do you add an image to this post? It ask for an url but i dont have one.PLEASE help!!!!

Yesterday I poured about 20 candles, and the tops are rough looking. It was not the same batch of candles. Each was an individual pour. Diffrent colors, scents.As I poured them yesterday I remember they all had an oily film at the top. Any suggestions???(wax was cargill c-4)

Newbie here, How do you lighten up a candle and you have only used one drop of color? Im testing using 11oz of wax(cargill c-4) but my blue candle needs to be lightened up to match the color Im going for. Is there a white to lighten it up? Thanks!

Ive tried to get as close to a black candle and all I seem to get is dark gray.(Using cargill soy wax) And how do you lighten up a candle thats too dark?

Congratulations!!! Im still trying for mine. Ill be there one day.
