Product Information

This platform will help us achieve our sustainability goals and connect with other businesses who are passionate about doing the same. Paraffin wax (or petroleum wax) is a soft colorless solid derived from petroleum, coal, or oil shale that consists of a mixture of hydrocarbon molecules containing between 20 and 40 carbon atoms. The Cosy Owl’s candle making kits are a brilliant way to begin teaching yourself, or a friend, how to make candles and to explore the huge variety and satisfaction it provides. The two main benefits of paraffin wax are its moisturizing or skin-softening properties and its use in heat therapy. Our fragrance oils provide a variety of stimulating scents and can be used in either their existing form or combined to create your own unique blended aroma.

All our essential oils mix easily with wax, soap bases and augeo oils without hindering the initial purpose if the product.

Demonstrating our firm commitment to better ourselves, our community, our markets and the environment, IDS is the first company in the UAE’s beverage sector to join the United Nations Global Compact Network. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. This means that people can submerge their hands or feet in the wax for potential therapeutic benefits. If you’re doing a paraffin wax treatment at home, take care not to heat the wax too much, as it may catch fire.

Soft and pliable waxes, like beeswax, may be preferred for such sculpture, but " investment casting waxes," often paraffin-based, are expressly formulated for the purpose. The lower the percentage of oil in the wax, the more refined it is considered (semi-refined versus fully refined). Some salons and spas may offer a paraffin wax bath as part of their manicures and pedicures, but most offer it as a separate treatment, too. People use paraffin wax for various purposes, including as a skin moisturizer and heat treatment for arthritis. Our fragrance oils can be used for a range of different crafting purposes including Candles, Wax Melts, Reed Diffusers, Room Sprays, and other home fragrance products.

To reduce the risk of fire, never leave vintage electrical or electronic products plugged in unattended. At-home paraffin treatment kits may be more cost-effective because a person can reuse some of the materials. Dip your entire hand or foot into the wax and leave it in for a few seconds until a layer forms over the area. We’re really particular when it comes to the quality of the waxes that we sell, and every batch of our bestselling Paraffin waxes have been formulated with care in accordance with strict quality control guidelines. Treatments for arthritis include over-the-counter and prescription medications, but natural and lifestyle remedies also play a key role.

Candle Dyes Our wide range of candle dyes are sourced from one of the leading candle dye manufacturers in Europe. I actually use Gulf Wax for waxing ledges and rails for grinding while im skating anyway i always found it by the vinegar and vegetable oils when i grew up in Texas but i cant seem to find it since ive been stationed here in Norfolk at least not at wal-mart or farm fresh but i will check the food lion, every place i can find online wont send it to my ship anyway just wondering if you knew any other places, thanks. By far the best way to minimise this is to ensure that you have done plenty of testing in selecting the right wick for the wax, container size, fragrance and dye combination to give as clean a burn as possible. I stayed away from that whiter style as I think it likely has some other hardners or similar, like the clearance bin white taper candle I tried from my wife which did not work well. With beesewax it seemed softer the few times I used it and I was never sure how ‘pure’ it was — worrying that the color and/or impurities might have side-effects or reactions.
