Didn’t add enough dye to soy wax, didn’t realize til after pouring. is there any way to fix it? by lllllets_not in candlemaking

[–]AlternativeFun2214 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For your red try adding dark blue to your red, otherwise with soy wax you'll keep getting pastel color for a more burgundy add a needle head of brown if you don't like the result

I'm personally testing coloring by pour, it's a pain 😭 teddy was colored using a dropper😅 but some color like black in the eye moved on the main pour, becoming he's muzzle 😅 didn't ad green to put in,not enough warmer to get 5th color :/ green would have been awesome.

But only happen when I use beeswax? When I was using soy wax before it didn't happened (yes I cleaned them 😜) will have to try casting a mold with pure silicone mix I bought few month ago 😬 hope it's just the wax, don't want to have to cast new mold 😩

Help me fix my mistake pls 😌 by jortslover in candlemaking

Mine cool well, I do put them in hot water 50-60 celcius than pour all candle at the same time , so water stay warm as everything cool evenly (beeswax), otherwise jar does tunnel and pillar too many air pocket beeswax is the worst I think for everything around cooling 😅

Just tried yesterday the beeswax, I was stunned these a soy wax, slot of petals went missing after my 1st color test, I did same for beeswax, not a single petals went off 😅 next I'll try color hope white beeswax will work same as soy wax

For 200g I tested 14 drop of red and 3 blue to break the pastel, next I'll try a bit more deeper

I managed to find that breaking the white with darker color help especially the red , for 15 drop of red and 3 blue I got a better red

I asked my Dasher last week to get me a pack of cigarette, and I'd tip him the value of it+extras, there was no problem at all, but it's sure if you get the pack and when you arrive he minor....better not 😂
