Each package contains Diamond shaped color chips. Each chip will color one pound of creamy waxes to a light to medium tint, translucent waxes to a medium to darker tone. When you use Natural wax or a Paraffin wax with additives that makes your wax opaque you may need to use twice as much or more to achieve a deeper color.
Dye chips are easy to use, duplicate color from candle batch to batch, easy to customize your colors to personal preference, cleaner to use than liquid dye, and economical.
