Create Your Own Cactus Candle

1. What Colourants Are Best For Candles?

• Dye Chips – Strong, stable colour with minimal impact on burn

• Liquid Dyes – Highly concentrated and easy to blend

• Mica Powders – Add shimmer but must be fully dispersed to prevent wick clogging

2. Where Does The Wax Go When A Candle Burns?

As the candle burns, melted wax is drawn up the wick, vaporised, and combusted by the flame, releasing fragrance into the air.

3. Should You Burn A Candle To The Bottom?

No. Stop burning when 1–2cm of wax remains to prevent overheating and potential glass breakage.

4. How Long Should I Let My Candle Cure?

For best scent performance, allow your candle to cure for 7–14 days before burning.
