Me too please Carole Brannan I have struggled with this for such a long time 🥰 xx	419
Just made some melts with Fireside and WOW - it's incredible! This might just be my favourite FO I've used so far. Does anyone know if it is a dupe of anything? Secretly hoping it's an aftershave as I'd love to get some for my partner! 😂	508
Thanks all 😊	704
Single, larger wick I think x	264
A good green leaves and fresh air kinda thing please, without it smelling of laundry powder, ooh and a green tea one please.	39
10% is too much for C3, 8% is absolutely enough it can't hold more than that. I never had any success with it and wooden wicks. Standard wicks work a treat though x	645
Sharon O'Reilly	456
The electric diffuser I have takes water and essential oil since augeo and fo eat plastic I wouldn’t put either near it	1,888
I think 16.99 is very reasonably priced!! Hate to think what they'd have said to me then! 😂🙈 If you want your business to survive then it has to be priced correctly - unfortunately some people just don't have a clue how much effort and cost goes into making candles and other products!! There's a customer for everyone and everything! Some people are just rude. Abersoch has ALOT of wealthy home owners & tourists - there's always one isn't there! 🙄	1,140
We only have one fragrance very similar to theirs which is Marine (Le Labo Calone 17)	1,364
Luke I have the lavender and camomile if still available please	1,238
One thing I’ve wondered is how to stick the wick down in the jar …. There’s wax that has seeped underneath the metal and even if you scrape off to get the sticker on, it is likely to come off which means it will move around when burning towards the bottom half… if that makes sense	392
Do the mods completely replace the originals - I mean are we still able to buy the originals for candles if we don’t want to make diffusers in them ? Or are they being phased out?	1,725
You need CLP labels as you would with any product containing fragrance oil. Worth noting though that craftovator don’t provide the CLP template for perfumers alcohol. You’ll have to source these elsewhere and have them calculated. Also with perfumers alcohol since it’s flammable you need tactile warning labels	919
I use Tuscan Leather which is lovely strong masculine. Divine!	237
Its one of my best sellers x	1,415
I used stab 14 in 20cl lotti and the HT was phenomenal on 4 different fragrance oils as well however that was 464 wax	1,019
About to wreck my head with Paradise beach this week	880
Hi fellow newbie👋 I’m also looking for a fragrance along those lines, so will follow for sone ideas.	260
I'd say dark honey and tobacco. Reminds me of the Mexican / Cuban cigars	1,208
Pink sands snow fairy alienate mademoiselle zoflo Mountain air Ruby jasmine xx	1,192
White Christmas is my fav, next is cosy Christmas x	1,573
Just half fill your current diffuser bottles	433
Hi…. Just a regulatory question to straighten my brain blur please …. I get the info about the Lilial changes and how that effects the candles for re-testing etc… but can I clarify that if the fragrance for diffusers is modified, this additionally will mean candle retesting too? Apologies if this has been self explanatory as I know there has been a lot of info which I have researched but just wanted to get it totally clear … 🙂 thanks …	287
Hi, my little business will be 1year old soon and I'm wanting to make some celebration melts to give out with orders, just wanting ideas on fragrances, not sure I fancy birthday cake 🙈. Thank you xx	428
Citronella is good	1,604
Yes you can’t claim it’s vegan if not every part of your product is. From a consumer point of view, if you purchased vegan food, you’d expect the packaging to be vegan friendly too and to get the approval from the vegan society it would have to be. Best not to claim what you are unable to prove or are unsure of just in case. But you can source vegan stickers etc hope that helps slightly..,	247
Just seen a new fragrance on the website called snow queen, anybody tried it yet and does it smell like snow fairy from lush 😍	320
What do you have left?	759
Honey and tobacco is lovely and so is Effete x	826
I make both, I love both , very diff smells	149
Recommendations for fragrances that are warm/cosy/ slightly sweet? Like the smell you get from vanilla but not vanilla if that makes sense🤣. Thinking honey and tobacco BUT I don’t want it to smell like aftershave!! Send me your best suggestions🥰	175
NOOOO. You’re killing me girl 👧🏼🤣 So what’s this snow queen smell like? I’m not into anything L*H. That’s a great idea with the insect repellent oil. Can it be used in lotions & potions at all, I get bitten to pieces. I’d love to use this in spray for myself. My leg last year after a horsefly bite - the basard.	803
Bossy woman I think it’s called. Hugo boss dupe	1,851
Sharon O'Reilly I will meet you at the water cooler in the asylum 😂	884
It cracks 😄 i’ve found it cracks around the wick but sometimes across the whole diameter too!	870
Same as Amy Lee - I test first to establish the best wicks/safety - so do a bunch all in the same room. Only the ones with the best burn performance are tested for HT individually after that.	1,264
I bought this one and love it! Very strong scent only use 8% and the cold throw is delicius 😍	1,124
I don’t sell tea lights anymore, lots of work for min profit. X	945
I had a stall today too, well done :)	99
Morning everyone! Hope you're all well today. I have a couple of questions (sorry, you'll probably hear alot from me whilst I figure everything out). First off, is there a way to test the fragrances in the wax without creating a full candle? Second, with labelling, do you get them printed from a printer or do you design and print them yourselves at home on blank labels? If it's the latter, what printer do you have? Thanks 🙂 x	461
I dont understand the assesments 😊	1,719
QUESTION: How much fragrance oil do you tend to go through before cracking a new fragrance? Would be interested to see how other people's results vary. Many thanks in advance x	7
*do	1,892
Have sent you a pm 👍	1,895
Just got a great throw and a great full burn with Rcx cl 10 in 20cl glass jar. Using damson plum rose and patchouli. CS recipe 😁	1,426
Hi looking for some help with wax melts, can anyone tell what wax number wax melts come under on the 49th infra regulations for fragrance load. Many thank in advance	271
Pour hotter. Xx	776
Hey CS's, I am using a Lotti 30CL with an LB3 wick with 8% FO. I burnt it for the past week an a bit at 4 hour intervals and to my records it lasted in excess of 50 hours (53hrs to be exact). I had amazing HT and there was almost no wax left in the jar. Perfect melt pool every time even though the flame wasn't large in size. How long should a candle in these jars be lasting? Are we good on burn time?	268
The dye needs shaking as said and warming ( put in water for a bit ) I had the same problem with the black .x	1,477
💚 Check out our website now and discover our huge range of fragrance oils! https://www.randallscandles.co.uk/collections/fragrances	177
Open up the ifra for the scent and look at category 10a, that's the % allowed in reed diffusers. It's 14.28% for cigar lounge.	1,262
Yes it requires specialised testing and it’s own clp creating x	1,677
I use 8-10%	839
Haha good luck Sharon, I am on trial number 26 with black pom. Christmas spice I found that the burn goes flat halfway through so wick up and accept a higher burn rate for the first 10 hours to allow it to get through the middle section 👍	876
Hi Folx. I’ve been making candles with ProSoy with good success for about 3 months now. I’m trying a new scent, the peppermint and spruce one. However I find my candle keeps self extinguishing between the 1st and 3rd burn. I tried wicking up and it did this a few times more. I’m using a 180ml amber jar where the recommended wick size is TCR24/12 but I’ve gone up to TCR 30/18. Does this sound right or could I have a different problem? I’m wondering if maybe there’s too much fragrance oil in it? I’ve got 10% currently which I didn’t initially think would be the problem. Hoping some of you have some helpful tips and ideas ☺️	42
Hi I'm looking at adding Kreed to my scents list.. is K fragrance Kreed? Tia	202
6.5% off FO in c3 with wooden wicks is plenty, even with cotton wicks 7% is enough as said above 8% is max in this wax	646
No. Fragrance oil is only one of the ingredients and you can call your product whatever you want, just make sure there is a record in your files that says what FO (+ batch number) you used for a particular product.	637
It’s lovely. Very unique x	1,290
Were they all poured from same batch? Sometimes wax discolours if its gone too hot?	305
Condolences for the loss of your dear friend Cheryl Maclean it was a lovely sentiment to read and I'm sure Andrew would be proud of your commitment and dedication to the interest you shared in your friendship. Have a lovely bank holiday 🙂 x	1,464
I use it for candles and it’s lovely	340
Cheryl Maclean apologies to jump on this post, just wondering when mint, ginger & tobacco is due back in? Can’t find the stock file and haven’t been active on here in a good while do not seen any posts either. Thanks x	812
Is there any info on the package what wax are they using? They have no info on their page, just that it’s black wax.	228
Black Plum and rhubarb, absolutely amazing in a reed diffuser. I had a customer buy one on Friday, then came back on Saturday to buy a second one. She said she had the first one upstairs, loved how it totally filled all upstairs with fragrance so wanted a second for downstairs 😊	235
Sometimes as candle makers I see alot of people trying to achieve so much perfection. I'm sure naturally candle flames are supposed to flicker. It looks fine to me.. Anyway if you need more it could just be the air in the room at this time 🤷‍♀️	1,073
I was getting lots of frosting but now I don't anymore!!! I use 494 and ecosoy 50/50! It works an absolute treat xx	774
Hi I’ve started selling electric aroma diffusers & a customer has asked if she can buy the FO I use in my candles/melts. Does anyone sell FO’s? Would I need to supply it mixed with augeo re the clp? Or should I just say no 😂 I would really appreciate any advice please x	464
I find most fragrances work with 7% fo with CS1 wax LX 14 LX 16 in 30cl , 10% 12% is far to much oil in my opinion what fragrance are you testing 🤔	1,231
Cheryl Maclean - any update on •Lemongrass & Ging mod? •Dark Honey & Effette - you said these were good, when will they go live? 🙏🙏🙏 Thanks so much Nichola	1,721
Could anyone recommend a sweet/vanilla based fragrance oil please? I’ve tried Luscious Vanilla but I don’t think it’s sweet enough… For info, 20cl and C6 wax. Thanku! 😊	304

Hi all - I am wondering if anyone knows if the soap & lotion will be coming out in any of the other Christmas fragrances? I wholesale to a Christmas shop and this is something we are looking to add to their range, but at the moment I can only see the frankincense & myrrh. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated! :)	261

Hi,yes it's 10% and yes same fragrance oil x	1,224
What do you mean clean burning? There's no clean burning wax, or... all the good quality waxes are clean burning 🙂 If you mean 'toxins' then research shows there's no difference between waxes, incl. paraffin... all of them emit similar substances at similar levels. If you mean 'soot free'... if a candle is wicked correctly then you normally won't see any soot unless you disturb the air, or there's draught, etc. There are no soot free candles, there are only candles where you can or cannot see soot. Fragrances, essential oils and dyes - they make the composition of any candle way more complex so (and again there's research) so substances they emit are at higher level and potentially more concerning. Anyway, 'clean burning' is just a marketing term, a keyword with so many meanings that it doesn't really mean anything. When I have a moment I'll try to find the link to the research but I'm 100% that the link has been shared in this group quite a few times.	753

Jasmine and magnolia is perfect for wedding favours in my opinion! Not sure it has a hint of Orange though…maybe the gardenia and orange blossom would be nice, I haven’t tried it yet x	1,801
Hi Cheryl Cheryl Maclean! May be it is a stupid question but I need to understand…🙏🏻 If these FO are on sale and will be replaced by the new ones…does it make sense for me now to buy them if I’m just at the start point and plan to test FO? Should the new ones be tested again? thanks ☺️	368
Cardamom and Mimosa is beautiful x	1,993
So I’ve ordered some of these 30cl jars but there are no boxes for them. Does anyone else sell these and if so what boxes do you use and also what do you do about labels. I’m assuming the clp will go on the bottom but my tins are glasses have my logo labels with fragrance on them	499
I really like fireside it has lots of calming scents within it…An intensely rich and full aroma leading with crisp top notes of bergamot, lemon leaf and warming spices, enhanced by fresh eucalyptus, tender lavender and summer geranium. The base of this fragrance is exotic and full with red cedar, massoia wood, amber, frankincense and musks. Top Notes: Bergamot, Lemon Leaf, Eucalyptus Heart Notes: Spices, Lavender, Geranium Base Notes: Cedar, Massoia Woods, Amber, Frankincense, Musk xx	1,586
Cheryl Maclean I was wondering if you could help. You sent out an email a few months back listing all your scents and what could or couldn’t be used in diffusers, candles and room sprays. Seaweed and Juniper appeared on that list as Ok for candles, diffusers and room mists. Can I ask why it has been modified if it didn’t need to be ?	1,727
Ginger Peach	70
Effete, LX16 CS1 8%. The flame has struggled and it’s tunnelled. I know I’m not the o you one struggling with this fragrance. I’m thinking of dropping fragrance to 6/7% to see if that makes a difference. Any help would be greatly appreciated 😊	292
Does anyone know of a fragrance that smells eau dynamissante by clarins?	427

This is my candles once finished. Literally no wax left at all and easily washed out and reused.	205
You can’t really measure in any other than gram as oils have different density’s so 5 drops of one oil won’t weigh the same as 5 drops of a denser oil x	1,856
Scents can be crucial in determining our mood and feelings.

I have the same experience using soy wax for melts. No idea if it's normal	1,902
It just tunneled like crazy. I have tried the stabilo 16 but not quite getting a full melt pool after 8 hours but burning perfect otherwise. My stabilo 18 wick I think might be too much? I'm on the fence with that one. Coming up to 4 hours and nearly a full melt pool but think the flame might be too big x	1,542
It's on the SDS info on the product page x	185
Hi Shackers, Happy Monday, don't you just love a fresh new week? Have you all had a good day today? Monday's are always busy days here at The Shack, full of meetings but always great meetings. How many of you have Teens that have started Study leave or just about to? It's such a stressful time for them isn't it? Only a few more weeks and they will be over for another year. We then have summer holidays to look forward to yay :0) Zoe had made up a couple of samples for me to burn over the weekend. I had Effete and Dark honey & Tobacco in RCX. They both smelled amazing! The Effete Mod is throwing so well. I love this Fragrance so much. Actually, I love both to be honest. We are now waiting…	180
Use the matt whites with a clear and rcx. X	1,897

Me too please Carole Brannan I have struggled with this for such a long time 🥰 xx

Just made some melts with Fireside and WOW - it's incredible! This might just be my favourite FO I've used so far. Does anyone know if it is a dupe of anything? Secretly hoping it's an aftershave as I'd love to get some for my partner! 😂

Thanks all 😊

704

Single, larger wick I think x

264

A good green leaves and fresh air kinda thing please, without it smelling of laundry powder, ooh and a green tea one please.

10% is too much for C3, 8% is absolutely enough it can't hold more than that. I never had any success with it and wooden wicks. Standard wicks work a treat though x

I think 16.99 is very reasonably priced!! Hate to think what they'd have said to me then! 😂🙈 If you want your business to survive then it has to be priced correctly - unfortunately some people just don't have a clue how much effort and cost goes into making candles and other products!! There's a customer for everyone and everything! Some people are just rude. Abersoch has ALOT of wealthy home owners & tourists - there's always one isn't there! 🙄

We only have one fragrance very similar to theirs which is Marine (Le Labo Calone 17)

1,364

Luke I have the lavender and camomile if still available please

1,238

One thing I’ve wondered is how to stick the wick down in the jar …. There’s wax that has seeped underneath the metal and even if you scrape off to get the sticker on, it is likely to come off which means it will move around when burning towards the bottom half… if that makes sense

Do the mods completely replace the originals - I mean are we still able to buy the originals for candles if we don’t want to make diffusers in them ? Or are they being phased out?

Hey CS's, I am using a Lotti 30CL with an LB3 wick with 8% FO. I burnt it for the past week an a bit at 4 hour intervals and to my records it lasted in excess of 50 hours (53hrs to be exact). I had amazing HT and there was almost no wax left in the jar. Perfect melt pool every time even though the flame wasn't large in size. How long should a candle in these jars be lasting? Are we good on burn time?

The dye needs shaking as said and warming ( put in water for a bit ) I had the same problem with the black .x

Open up the ifra for the scent and look at category 10a, that's the % allowed in reed diffusers. It's 14.28% for cigar lounge.

202

6.5% off FO in c3 with wooden wicks is plenty, even with cotton wicks 7% is enough as said above 8% is max in this wax

646

No. Fragrance oil is only one of the ingredients and you can call your product whatever you want, just make sure there is a record in your files that says what FO (+ batch number) you used for a particular product.

637

It’s lovely. Very unique x

1,290

Were they all poured from same batch? Sometimes wax discolours if its gone too hot?

Condolences for the loss of your dear friend Cheryl Maclean it was a lovely sentiment to read and I'm sure Andrew would be proud of your commitment and dedication to the interest you shared in your friendship. Have a lovely bank holiday 🙂 x

Is there any info on the package what wax are they using? They have no info on their page, just that it’s black wax.

Black Plum and rhubarb, absolutely amazing in a reed diffuser. I had a customer buy one on Friday, then came back on Saturday to buy a second one. She said she had the first one upstairs, loved how it totally filled all upstairs with fragrance so wanted a second for downstairs 😊

235

Sometimes as candle makers I see alot of people trying to achieve so much perfection. I'm sure naturally candle flames are supposed to flicker. It looks fine to me.. Anyway if you need more it could just be the air in the room at this time 🤷‍♀️

I was getting lots of frosting but now I don't anymore!!! I use 494 and ecosoy 50/50! It works an absolute treat xx

774

Hi I’ve started selling electric aroma diffusers & a customer has asked if she can buy the FO I use in my candles/melts. Does anyone sell FO’s? Would I need to supply it mixed with augeo re the clp? Or should I just say no 😂 I would really appreciate any advice please x

464

I find most fragrances work with 7% fo with CS1 wax LX 14 LX 16 in 30cl , 10% 12% is far to much oil in my opinion what fragrance are you testing 🤔

1,231

Cheryl Maclean - any update on •Lemongrass & Ging mod? •Dark Honey & Effette - you said these were good, when will they go live? 🙏🙏🙏 Thanks so much Nichola

Could anyone recommend a sweet/vanilla based fragrance oil please? I’ve tried Luscious Vanilla but I don’t think it’s sweet enough… For info, 20cl and C6 wax. Thanku! 😊

Hi all - I am wondering if anyone knows if the soap & lotion will be coming out in any of the other Christmas fragrances? I wholesale to a Christmas shop and this is something we are looking to add to their range, but at the moment I can only see the frankincense & myrrh. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated! :)

What do you mean clean burning? There's no clean burning wax, or... all the good quality waxes are clean burning 🙂 If you mean 'toxins' then research shows there's no difference between waxes, incl. paraffin... all of them emit similar substances at similar levels. If you mean 'soot free'... if a candle is wicked correctly then you normally won't see any soot unless you disturb the air, or there's draught, etc. There are no soot free candles, there are only candles where you can or cannot see soot. Fragrances, essential oils and dyes - they make the composition of any candle way more complex so (and again there's research) so substances they emit are at higher level and potentially more concerning. Anyway, 'clean burning' is just a marketing term, a keyword with so many meanings that it doesn't really mean anything. When I have a moment I'll try to find the link to the research but I'm 100% that the link has been shared in this group quite a few times.

Jasmine and magnolia is perfect for wedding favours in my opinion! Not sure it has a hint of Orange though…maybe the gardenia and orange blossom would be nice, I haven’t tried it yet x

Hi Cheryl Cheryl Maclean! May be it is a stupid question but I need to understand…🙏🏻 If these FO are on sale and will be replaced by the new ones…does it make sense for me now to buy them if I’m just at the start point and plan to test FO? Should the new ones be tested again? thanks ☺️

So I’ve ordered some of these 30cl jars but there are no boxes for them. Does anyone else sell these and if so what boxes do you use and also what do you do about labels. I’m assuming the clp will go on the bottom but my tins are glasses have my logo labels with fragrance on them

I really like fireside it has lots of calming scents within it…An intensely rich and full aroma leading with crisp top notes of bergamot, lemon leaf and warming spices, enhanced by fresh eucalyptus, tender lavender and summer geranium. The base of this fragrance is exotic and full with red cedar, massoia wood, amber, frankincense and musks. Top Notes: Bergamot, Lemon Leaf, Eucalyptus Heart Notes: Spices, Lavender, Geranium Base Notes: Cedar, Massoia Woods, Amber, Frankincense, Musk xx

Cheryl Maclean I was wondering if you could help. You sent out an email a few months back listing all your scents and what could or couldn’t be used in diffusers, candles and room sprays. Seaweed and Juniper appeared on that list as Ok for candles, diffusers and room mists. Can I ask why it has been modified if it didn’t need to be ?

Effete, LX16 CS1 8%. The flame has struggled and it’s tunnelled. I know I’m not the o you one struggling with this fragrance. I’m thinking of dropping fragrance to 6/7% to see if that makes a difference. Any help would be greatly appreciated 😊

You can’t really measure in any other than gram as oils have different density’s so 5 drops of one oil won’t weigh the same as 5 drops of a denser oil x

I have the same experience using soy wax for melts. No idea if it's normal

It just tunneled like crazy. I have tried the stabilo 16 but not quite getting a full melt pool after 8 hours but burning perfect otherwise. My stabilo 18 wick I think might be too much? I'm on the fence with that one. Coming up to 4 hours and nearly a full melt pool but think the flame might be too big x

Hi Shackers, Happy Monday, don't you just love a fresh new week? Have you all had a good day today? Monday's are always busy days here at The Shack, full of meetings but always great meetings. How many of you have Teens that have started Study leave or just about to? It's such a stressful time for them isn't it? Only a few more weeks and they will be over for another year. We then have summer holidays to look forward to yay :0) Zoe had made up a couple of samples for me to burn over the weekend. I had Effete and Dark honey & Tobacco in RCX. They both smelled amazing! The Effete Mod is throwing so well. I love this Fragrance so much. Actually, I love both to be honest. We are now waiting…
