Thank you all, we have 2 no's and 1 yes...LOL how do I find out which is correct? It seems there is no way to ask the seller.

I wouldn't unless you're just using it for candle packaging. A lit candle would melt it. I use mine for baked goods.

I didn't even notice the candles' vanilla scent. Weeks later, I ordered more of the same from Amazon. That's when I read that the wax has a scent. It is FAR more subtle than a "scented candle."

I would think so just remember low heat over double boiler,beeswax is flammable and will give a bad burn if too hot.

I wouldn't. Beeswax melts at a higher temperature than paraffin (about 144 F compared to about 99 F), so it will burn you if you put it on your skin while it is liquid.

No, white beeswax has had the color and smell taken out of it. Try using regular beeswax if you want the honey-like scent.

I think it would be close, as it is a large wick. I have used it on paraffin 3" candle pillars and about the same size soy candles. I also used it on a beeswax candle--pillar that I have only partially burned. (I recycle old candles...) It is too big for anything smaller--the flame gets too large. With your candle being in a container, I think you are more likely to get a complete burn, but I would go to craft store and try a smaller sample of large cotton wick first. I also do not burn my candles all the way down--I put them into recycle when they are 1/4"-1/2" from the bottom, or sooner if the wick is not a good match! ;) I think it would be close, as it is a large wick.

Parrafin wax works best for dipping flowers. They have a whole line of scented as well. Not sure about soy.

No just bees wax has a wonderful honey /wax fragrance that is indicative of bees wax

I was scratching my head at that as well...I thought maybe it was a wax additive, but nothing came up in my search as well...Well if it was a typo on their part they should fix it cause I'm not going to purchase it because of it. who knows what sort of wax it could be if it really is a 334 soy wax cause I couldn't find anything in my search of many reputable outlets i use for candle making and ordering.

I'm definitely not a pro candle maker so I don't know the technicalities of the wick but I can tell you that it worked very well for what I did with it: soy candles made in mugs. Seemed to burn very well and very clean and was easy to work with.

I used these in soy wax jar candles with great success. They burn with almost no smoke and very evenly.

Yes, according to their website, it is approved for usage in bath/body products. One of the reviewers stated: "5-Star Rating - Soy candles and CP soapBy: Linds on 05/02/2012CP Soap: Discolors to a dark chocolate. No acceleration and no morphing. Behaves well in CP soap!<br /> Soy Wax: Awesome cold and hot throw.<br /> Smell: Like fake "vanilla frosting" lip balm. Love it!" Hope this helps!

I wouldn't use shea butter for deodorant; here's a simple deodorant recipe: 3 Tbsp. coconut oil, 2 Tbsp. beeswax, 2 Tbsp. baking soda, 2 Tbsp. arrowroot, 1/8 tsp. tea tree essential oil, 1/8 tsp. lavendar or rosemary essential oil. Melt beeswax and coconut oil over double boiler over low heat; whisk in baking soda and arrowroot powder. Remove from heat and stir in essential oils (for a feminiine scent use tea tree, lavendar, sweet lime, and ylang ylang; for a more masculine smell use tea tree, cedar and sandalwood). Pour into deodorant container and leave uncapped for 24 hours, or til it's cool; then cap. This should make enough for one stick of deodorant.

I don'treally know as I haven't made candles. The things I have read though kind of discourage essential oil for candles.

I'm sure they would blend nicely in lotion and possibly soap. I blend a few drops of essential oils with coconut oil and it works well. I know from experience, it takes a ton of oil for candle making and is not worth the time or effort.
