In the past I used candlescience and never noticed a color change. Now I get it custom blended by a lab. 

Strange! CS is the first brand I tried, and it turned blue in the para-soy blend. Also tried Flaming Candle and Wellington, same result. Just to be sure, you've done a burn test with your nag candle and didn't have color shift after burning? Mine look perfectly white when first poured/cured.

Thanks for the info.

Have you tested a candle with only Nag Champa from your supplier?

The OP reads as if it was a blend. If you did blend then any number of chemical reactions with the other FO could occur.

Not all Nag Champa from every supplier is the same. I make a couple dozen NC soy candles a week and do not have that color change phenomenon.

I know this is an old thread, but I've tried 3 different Nag Champa FOs in a para-soy blend and they've all turned my wax blueish-green (only once the candle has been lit and cooled. Each time the candle is burned, the blue-green color intensifies). What brand of NC are you using that doesn't turn the wax blue-green? Thanks.
