LiveSoy Pillar - 100% Vegetable Based wax for Pillars, Tarts & Melts.
After significant time and investment, we are proud to announce this newly developed wax for Pillar Candles and Wax Melts.
LiveSoy Pillar is a 100% vegetable blend wax (Rapeseed / Coconut), specifically developed for use in Pillars and Wax Melts. This wax contains 100% vegetable based waxes.
In comparison to other pillar / melt waxes on the market, LiveSoy Pillar has no ('fatty') scent, allowing for scents to come through more effectively on both hot and cold throws, thus negating the need to 'over-fragrance' the wax.
This wax is currently supplied in solid blocks and comes packed in 10kg blocks. For smaller quantities we break the wax down at our on-site processing centre into smaller, more manageable lumps / shards.
This wax works really well for wax melts and pillar candles and performs best with high fragrance loads of around 12%. This wax can also be used as an additive to Paraffin to improve overall look and scent throw of container candles.
The fragrance load of this wax is around 10-12% when tested by the team here at LiveMoor.
Please note this wax is not designed to be used un-fragranced and will likely cause cracking if used as a stand-alone wax with no fragrance added. You can add a softer wax such as soy, in order to improve the overall performance of unscented candles.
This wax melts at 52 °C and has a recommended pouring temperature of between 55-60 °C. Sometimes rippling can occur if poured too cold, so we would recommend trying to stick to a pouring temperature of around 60C, alternatively slowly heating with a heat gun can improve the surface appearance once set.
It is recommended to leave the wax to cure if using fragrance oils for a minimum of 1 week, with best results yielded from a 2 week cure time.
Please be sure to keep the wax at room temperature during cold periods so that the wax does not cool too quickly and cause cracking.
Advice:
In general, lower pouring temperatures seem to be better for this wax (around 55-60C). We recommend heating this wax to around 80C before adding fragrance / dye.
It's sometimes necessary to heat the wax to higher temperatures initially to incorporate colours, fragrances or other waxes, but please refrain from over-heating this wax as it can affect the overall performance if left at high temperatures for expended periods.
Please resist pouring the wax immediately and let it cool slightly (with gentle stirring if needed) as this will yield the best results with less risk of frosting and surface defects.
Use with high fragrance loads (10-12%) to soften the wax when set, for unscented candles add a softer wax such as Soy at a ratio of around 5-10% to reduce the risk of cracking when set.
I usually order R&C must of ordered wrong as I picked this wax, it definitely needs a different temp to pour, many of my melts have cracked. The wax has a good hot and cold scent throw, and no frosting as of yet but I need to work the pour temps as it’s trickier than the usual R&C
As usual good wax and service thanks.
First time making wax melts and really pleased with the results. I purchased the pillar & melt wax and the Xmas scent essential oil and they turned out great. I’ve still got half left too!
Very pleased with the pillar wax
Will order some more
Once again livemoor has delivered. The wax is amazing and blended well, nice to work with. I do wish they would have it as flakes for the bulk buys tho.....apart from that great company, great wax.

This is the second order I have made with Livemoor and am very happy with the service, delivery and the product quality and price. I would recommend Livemoor for candle making supplies.
