Natural Soy Candles

Why choose natural?

Buying candles without knowing their details is an incredibly risky endeavor. Most scented candles are made using paraffin wax. When burned, this wax creates highly toxic benzene and toluene (among MANY others) which are both known carcinogens. These fuels are a primary source of air pollution and the chemicals that enter the air in result are as harmful as second hand smoke. The wicks used in the majority of candles are commonly filled with led and are hazardous after a short while of being burned. In addition, scented candles on the market are comprised of dyes or artificial ingredients leading to even more chemicals floating around your space, entering the environment and your body as you breath. Take a look at the candles in your home; the black residue that lines the jars are the toxins that form once the candle is burned.

Understanding what ingredients are in the products you purchase is profoundly important.

The candles available here are made of entirely natural ingredients;

Here’s a little more information about these ingredients;

Soy wax, derived from the soy bean (a renewable resource) is a hydrogenated vegetable oil that turns solid at room temperature. It contains nothing artificial, instead offers a clean burn and has no negative effect on the environment or your health.
Soy wax has a lower melting point, extended the life of the candle and contributing to a cost effective luxury
Essential oils have a WIDE array of health benefits **see article on essential oils** and when distributed into the air from burning, allows for an aromatherapy medicinal effect. Benefits from burning essential oils include deepened sense of awareness, calming properties and improved mood, depending on the scent of choice.
Beeswax Hemp wicks contain NO led or harmful properties
Glass jars/containers allow for recycle materials and environmentally friendly storage

My hope is that these candles fill your space with beautiful scents and bring the energy of your choice to life. XO.
