Soy wax is a vegetable wax made from the oil of soybeans. After harvesting, the beans are cleaned, cracked, de-hulled, and rolled into flakes. The Soy wax comes in a flake form when you buy it online and its ready to be melted down so you can make candles with it.
No, soy wax is insoluble in water. When soy wax is introduced to water, it will not dissolve or mix with the water.
The soy wax is measured, Soy wax comes in a flake form, when melted it turns to a oil like base but it's still wax, you use as much soy wax as you like to make candles. You use 1 ounce of oil per lb of soy wax, the oil is the fragrant that's used to scent your candle.

Soy wax does melt quicker than beeswax, but are a better burning candle in glass containers. Beeswax takes longer to heat than soy wax. Since the soy wax is a softer wax it takes longer for Soy Wax to harden.

Visit your Soy wax provider online to find out your melting point for your soy wax. I use Golden Brand 464 Soy wax the Melt Point is 115-119 F The 444 Golden Brand Melt point is 121-125 F Golden Brand 415 Soy Wax is 121-125 F The EcoSoya CB-Advanced is 125 F The CB Excel is 125 F:
Pure soybean oil, producing soy wax, which can be used to make candles.
To make low-melt soy candles suitable for use as body lotion, start by using a soy wax that has a lower melting point, typically around 120°F to 130°F. Melt the soy wax in a double boiler, then add skin-safe essential oils or fragrance oils for aroma. Pour the melted wax into heat-resistant containers and allow it to cool, but not fully solidify. Once set, the candle can be lit, and the melted wax can be scooped out and applied as a moisturizing lotion.
Yes, soy wax is used to make a lot of scented candles. Because it is a natural, sustainable resource made from soybean oil, soy wax is a popular option for scented candles. Because of its exceptional scent-holding qualities, perfumes are gradually released and dispersed, creating a consistently scented sensation. A selection of sweet candles produced with pure soy wax are available from FS Blends. These candles are designed to burn cleaner and to improve the scent experience. FS Blends guarantees that their candles not only provide lovely aromas but also comply with environmentally and health-conscious standards by using soy wax.
Beeswax burns slower than soy wax due to its higher melting point and denser composition. This means beeswax candles usually have a longer burn time compared to soy wax candles.
