What is the oil on top of my candle?

Soy wax has very low melting point and because of this the fragrance oil will separate from the wax when exposed to extreme temperature changes (e.g., being shipped in a hot truck or placed in a hot room). This occurs often with 100% soy wax. There is nothing to worry about if this happens. If you do come across a candle that is sweating, we recommend blotting the oil with a paper towel and then lighting. After burning your candle for the first time, you shouldn't see anymore sweating.
