Formula or recipe for building a reliable candle powered lamp?

[Meredith]

Hi all

I'm super keen to make a candle powered lava lamp over the lockdown my country is in.

Does anyone have any reliable recipes for making one from scratch, ideally one with materials that are easily found. My dream one is violet liquid with yellow wax, like the Mathmos ones (but sadly don't have the money  (read: permission) to buy a fireflow and Mathmos won't ship here).

Any suggestions on building one myself?

Many thanks

MT goo has a chlorinated paraffin wax mixture that works with less heat than normal wax.

Unfortunately, they are offline due to COVID

Id send you some but USPS isnt shipping from USA to to Zealand until this is over
