SoapInTheCity Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 I recieved a votive candle from a friend, and the wax was not the kind that just melts away. It just melts all over the place. What kind of wax does melts away to nothing as the wick burns? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol M Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 I'm not sure exactly what you mean. Do you mean that the votive completely liquified? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monica Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 was the votive in a holder..all votives are suppose to be in a tight fitting container Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoapInTheCity Posted June 5, 2006 Author Share Posted June 5, 2006 Yes it is in a holder but it must have been a little taller than the holder so it spilt over it. Like, a tealight normally melts away to nothing.........I only burnt this candle so much. Will it burn away completely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAREY Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 Hi, sounds like you got a hold of a soy votive made from soy container wax. I had someone make me some votives once and even though they were in a container they melted so incredibly fast. Sometimes people make votives out of left over container wax and forget to add stearic to harder. Johann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
