Home : Additives
No additives are necessary when using Candle Soylutions soy wax, but we do offer them to those that want to "tweak" their formula....we've always loved the wax without having to add anything, but we don't make candles for a living, and understand that sometimes the environment and lights may demand a little more than straight soy wax for your candle making.

All Vegetable MODIFIER by the Pound
The all vegetable Modifier is the additive that makes our Millennium Container Wax different from our 100% Soy Container Wax. It Will lessen frosting and give smoother tops.
Instructions: add to container wax beads at 3-5% (by weight) before heating. Heat wax and modifier to 160 minimum - 180 degrees maximum, remove from heat source and add fragrance and color (if desired), stir thoroughly and intermittently while cooling and pour at 115-120 degrees. Percentages will vary depending on fragrance oil and color combinations

Stearic Acid POUND
|
Stearic Acid by the Pound
Derived from vegetable oil, our Stearic Acid is a white, wax-like flake.
Bath & Body: When added in small quantities to creams and lotions Stearic Acid adds a thickness and texture that is not obtainable with beeswax and borax alone and can add a pearlescent quality to cream.
Candles: Use at 2-3%...Helps votive wax to hold more fragrance...you may need to use a larger wick if you use more than 2-3% as stearic will make votive wax harder. If you add this to container wax, it will make the wax harder, but also more likely to crack and frost and more difficult to burn.
1-4 lb = $2.95 /lb
5 lb+ =$2.30 /lb

UV Inhibitor
Add Candle Soylutions UV Inhibitor to your candle making tool box. Slows frosting due to light. A little goes a long way! Use at .02%. A pound of wax weighs 454 grams so it's 454g x .0002 = .0908g/lb of wax. A 4 lb batch of wax would be 4 x .0908g = .3632g of UV Inhibitor. Contains both A & B UV inhibitors.
