Hello Handmakers!
This recipe is one of our favourite soy wax melt recipes and we’ve been using it pretty much every week in our office. Though, we don’t always use our Strawberry Fresh and Honey fragrance oils π Essential oils like Sweet Orange, Peppermint and Rosemary are great for uplifting moods and helping us stay focus too! (With that said, feel free to switch up this recipe. Use your own favorite molds, scents or colours and create your own creamy soy wax melts!β )
What You’ll Need 80g of Natural Soy Wax
20g of Pure Shea Butter
Mini Hexagon Mold (8.5g)
5ml of Strawberry Fresh Fragrance Oil
3ml of Honey Fragrance Oil
0.1-0.5g of Pink High Concentration Candle Dye

Β
Instructions
- Using a digital scale, weigh 80g of Natural Soy Wax and 20g of Pure Shea Butter in a 500ml Glass beaker.
