  1. Unfortunately i havent had the time, some things have come up and i have to move unexpectedly so my time has been sent trying to find a new house while packing and looking after my 2 yo and 4mo
  2. I will look into that for sure I have looked online for alot of shipment options, all is from America so costs alot to ship but might be my only option. I used at least 5 times the amount they recommend for the wax amount so it must be the wrong type then,
  3. Im in kwinana western australia, i am finding it hard to find most things i need for it such as the gloss that goes over the candle
  4. Where have you been buying your colours from? I went online to search for pigment whites but they are saying that its only to be used for candles which arent meant to be burnt?
  5. I think it is pigment but I'll call the company and ask, i told them what i needed it for and thats what they recommended but i used alot of packets and thats the best i can get. Thank you.
  6. Yeah i brought white colour chips and have been stirring, i put alot Of white chips so i dont understand. Why it works on my of cut but not my full size.
  7. My core candles are just plain uncolored. In those photos you can see where the whites meant to be, just not showing thru. The other picture is where i snapped of a curl of also plain wax to test using same layering pattern. Small piece worked full candle didnt.
  8. Yeah i have done 6 layers at one stage, still the same issue, dipping in water in between each dip.
  9. Hey all, im seeking help as ive started carving candles but cant understand why my white layers arent showing thru, everything else seems to be working. When i broke a piece of un dyed wax and used it as a tester piece it worked wonderfully but when i made a full sized one the white almost completely vanished. I am using liquid dye for colour and chips for the white. Please help
