<p>Someone mentioned making lava wax shimmer like this . I saw a 'silver' wax lava on here that the guy made with silver sharpies , could you just add a few to a colored wax and have the same effect ?</p>

<p>I have made this kind of thing in a bottle for years. only flows when you swirl it by hand though . the liquid can be made MUCH CHEAPER !! Its actually a powder that artist add to their paints to make them 'shimmer' . I put a little bit of dish soap in the water and that powder but i was just thinking maybe you can use glycerine or even Polyox lubricant to thicken the water . I will try to find the jar of powder and take a photo of it for anyone interested .</p>

<p>As the blob mentioned someone made one using pearlized soap, well that was me. And I tried it in a the cyclone lamp and all it created was bubbles but when it was in there, it was moving a little too fast so the full effect wasn't all there. I even tried it in a bubble lamp and of course it made a insane amount of bubbles. I'm think with this stuff (not having soap in it) would look really good on a bubble lamp But a cyclone lamp still maybe too fast moving to get the full effect.</p>
