@Amy Young for wax and fragrance, thereās a % āloadā and once you know that. Itās just math! Example: for 3 pounds of coconut vegetable wax, I use 4.5 oz. Of fragrance. And repeat everything so your candle are always consistent! There are little variables, because making in small batches by hand allows for that, but itās important to work with percentages so the candles are safe and reliable. šÆļø
Whatās a number of sales in a month that would make you feel successful? In dollars. Or your local currency. Example: $3,000 a month. Etc. Be honest! Letās see the number that makes you feel like a success!
@Latasha Sims Iām not 100% sure that soy candles are bad for autoimmune, but I know soy in general isnāt good when you have issues with your endocrine system or hormones. And itās very personal. I donāt want to discourage you from using a wax youāre fond of. I didnāt feel soy was good for me. So I found the coconut vegetable alternative.
@Latasha Sims I can only recommend coconut wax and pure beeswax as the 2 healthiest, least toxic! Beeswax as the added benefit of actually cleansing the air.
