What makes a white candle burn faster than a colored one?

The color of a candle is determined by the dye or pigment added to the wax. The burning rate of a candle is primarily influenced by the composition of the wax and the size of the wick. White candles typically use a purer form of wax, such as paraffin, which has a higher melting point and can burn more efficiently than colored candles that may contain additional additives. Additionally, the dye or pigment in colored candles can affect the combustion process, potentially slowing down the burn rate compared to a white candle.
