In this video I test three traditional waxes used for casting candles: soy wax, beeswax, and paraffin.
Is there much difference between them? Do they hold detail well? And how much do they shrink?
Does the casting temperature matter? Should the molds also be heated?
So many questions. In this video I look for answers.

Thanks to Jasmin for sending in this project. Check out her Instagram: mlle_jasminmacrae
