Kodaspuffs Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Hi everyone!! I'm feeling tenacious and would like to make some palm candles with home made/grown infused oils (all the info I've found pertains to B&B/soap). I pour at 200 degrees so I really want a good carrier oil with high FP that is safe for candles. Haha, I know palm isn't the best choice for this, I will conduct extensive testing!What carrier is safe/safest for candle use- (olive, sweet almond, jojoba, safflower, another)? Is there anything that can be added to extend the expiration?How long is the "cure" time?Do the same rules that apply to infused oil as for EO? Any information or advice would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!! ~Chels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella1952 Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Well, I don't know squat about all this, but if I were to throw caution to the wind and try this, I would try palm oil first. Please keep us updated about your grand experiment 'cause it sounds very interesting!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
