Hello Beautiful People!
Today's video goes into the type of wax I like to use and why. I also talk about why you need a different type of wax for tart melts than what you would use for jar candles.

    Hi Alisa! So happy you are enjoying my videos! ❤️ I store my wax in a plastic container, in my candle work space, which is fairly cool in temperature. The key is to make sure it is sealed in a container to keep it fresh and in a cool place so that it doesn't melt.

    Thanks so much for the video.. i have a question hoping someone can help me figure this out. i made a candle with coconut apricot wax and almond macaroon FO and when the wax cooled it doesn't look white or even offwhite anymore its looking like a very light tint of brown how do i keep my candle from turning colors especially if i want the white look?

  • @ParisNikkole

    Unfortunately because the fragrance oils can come in anything from clear to light brown it will affect the color of your wax. Some people have used stearic acid, gloss polymers or even titanium dioxide to make a candle white. However, using these ingredients can cause problems for example, titanium can clog the wick and keep it from burning; the gloss polymers can raise the melt point of the wax in containers, etc. I actually like that my waxes are not the same color. Speaks to me keeping my product completely natural without any added chemicals.

    Hey! I haven’t used stearic acid before so I can’t advise on this one. I have heard other candle makers using this acid for candle sticks and free standing candles because it helps with the molding process. I try to keep things natural so I don’t use any additives. What would you need to use stearic acid for?
