Anyone else use it? I can't stand the thought of using paraffin wax (good little eco-warrior that I am) and I love candle wax, but ooh boy, anyone else find it incredibly hard to colour? His_Einna

I've found that the liquid dye is inaccurate in color. I'll have red dye, but my candles turn out pink. Soy wax is hard to color. I bought some dye chips from candle science. I only used one dye chip for one pound of soy and the color was accurate. I hope this helps. I think dye chips work better than the liquid form.

hi.......... soy wax, which is a processed form of soybean oil. Soy wax is a partially-hydrogenated form of soybean oil. Some soy candles are made up of a blend of different waxes, including beeswax, paraffin, or palm wax. thanks

So proud of you for being an eco warrior!! I can't seem to part from my paraffin!! You didn't mention what brand of coloring you used or where you bought it from. There is a vast difference in the way many are made. Some are good, some are bad. So if you really prefer a certain medium of color (liquid or dye chip), try a different supplier/brand and see if that makes a difference.
