DIY Aromatic Massage Candle
Material
100 grams soy wax
50 ml almond oil
1 tsp Vitamin E oil
40 Drops Essential Oils
candle wick
Glass jars
Method:
1. Place the soy wax in a glass jar and put it in the microwave to melt completely.
2. In the meantime, take another glass jar and place a candle wick in the middle of it. Use chopsticks to keep the wicks straight, so that when you add the wax, the wick doesn’t sink into it.
3. After melting the soy wax, take it out from the microwave and let it cool down a bit.
4. Add vitamin E, almond oil and essential oils of your choice to it. Lavender, chamomile, vetiver and frankincense essential oils are good options. Mix all well.
5. Now put the mixture in the jar with the wick facing upwards.
6. Let it set well. Your candle will be ready.
Uses
Light a scented candle and let its aroma soothe your senses. Apply melted wax from candles directly to your skin as a lotion. Soy wax is not as hot as regular wax. Also, the oils found in it also act as a moisturizer during massage.
