This Candle Wax – Nude is a paraffin wax which is one of the most widely used waxes in candle making due to it being so versatile, affordable and having a strong scent throw.

Features of Paraffin Wax in Candle Making:

For the best results when making paraffin wax candles, it’s essential to follow key steps carefully. First, adding fragrance oils at 85-93°C ensures maximum scent absorption, allowing the candle to release a strong, lasting aroma. Then, pouring the wax at an ideal temperature of 68-74°C helps prevent air bubbles, ensuring a smooth and professional finish.

Finally, allowing the candles to cure for 3-5 days enhances the burn quality, ensuring a steady flame and optimal performance. By following these practices, candle makers can achieve beautifully crafted, high-quality candles with excellent scent throw and longevity.

Paraffin wax remains a top choice for candle makers due to its reliable performance and professional finish.
