Color is very powerful energy. Use it wisely and with care. "Dress" candles with corresponding oils, and burn related incense. If you do not have the correct oil for anointing you may replace it with Olive oil.  Candle magick can be done on your altar but since alot of rituals require them to be set up for an extended period of time an alternative may be necessary. You will have a white altar candle (with the Goddess and God representations beside it). 

Do NOT do candle magick that interferes with another person unwillingly. Information edited from "Practical Candleburning Rituals".
