DO NOT use for candles!

Media could not be loaded. I made the mistake of buying this product for my candles but the mica powder completely ruined them. The powder never mixes with the wax, even after mixing for more than 10 minutes. You have to use too much to get color and then when it dries all the powder sinks to the bottom leaving the top very pale and colorless. I used a large amount of gold paint and ended up with cream colored candles. That part didn't bother me too much, aesthetics aren't the biggest issue. But the real problem is that your candles are NOT BURNING. You tunnel down immediately and the powder gets caught in the wick and the already tiny flame goes out within a few minutes. I've never had this problem with other candles I've made with liquid paint, the only difference is it's mica powder. one with mica, with a tiny flame that went out after 2 minutes. At the same time I started to burn them. Another scary problem is that mica appears to be flammable? When I tried to light these candles they would crackle, crack and spark, sometimes the whole molten puddle would catch fire. I have also added a video for this. I ruined 3 pounds of candles with this powder wasting so much time and money on all the wasted materials. Pigments are great in their own right and I'm sure they work great in other things too, but if you're trying to make candles just stick with liquid or wax paint, don't make that mistake.

Pros
  • β™› Mica pigment powder. Beginner or pro, our mica soap paint is very easy to work with. These are powder dyes that quickly melt and attach to the soap material and are easy to use to create the perfect product. Mica pigment is perfect for epoxy, candles, bath bombs, acrylics and slime, nail polish, eye shadow, makeup blush and more. !
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

These powders are great. They make my bath bombs look fantastic and they don't stain at all!
