LIQUASORB 5500 – UV Color Protector for Paraffin & Wax Blends

LIQUASORB 5500 – UV Color Stabilizer for Paraffin & Wax Blends is a high-performance UV stabilizer , specifically designed to protect paraffin candles and home fragrances from color fading caused by sunlight or artificial lighting.

Packaging: 30ml

👉 Paraffin candles:

• It prevents the color from fading when the candle is exposed to sunlight or bright store lighting.

• It minimizes color changes when using difficult scents (e.g., vanilla, cinnamon) that tend to “burn” the color or alter it.

• It improves the burn profile, especially when pigments and strongly scented essential oils have been added.

👉 For room fragrances (reed diffusers):

• It stabilizes the color of the fragrance, which might otherwise become cloudy or “yellow” over time.

• It prevents deterioration caused by exposure to light on the shelf or at home.

• It helps maintain the appearance and quality for a longer period of time.
