The Eco-Friendly Choice

Soy wax, derived from soybeans, is a biodegradable and renewable resource, making these candles a beacon of sustainability in the candle industry. Unlike paraffin wax, which is sourced from non-renewable petroleum, soy candles reduce our ecological footprint, supporting a healthier planet.

The allure of a candle lies in its gentle flicker and soothing scent that seems to make time stand still. Candles made from soy offer a significantly longer burn time, allowing you to savor these moments without frequent replacements.

Enhanced Scent Throw

For many, the charm of a candle lies in its fragrance. Scented soy wax candles are appreciated for their descent scent throw, distributing a cleaner and more authentic aroma.

F.A.Q

Scented Soy Wax Candles:

What Are Your Candles Made From?

Our candles are made from a blend of soy and coconut waxes.

Why Did You Add Coconut Wax To The Blend?

This is a great question!
Soy wax is fantastic but it does have some potential drawbacks or deficiencies if you will.
Soy based candles can often have a bumpy cratered appearance after burning. Not a huge deal, but I think we can all agree we want our candles to look beautiful.
Soy wax is known to have good scent throw but not excellent throw.
Soy wax is prone to tunnelling.

Coconut wax is a softer natural wax that stays smooth after burning, has excellent scent throw, and is less prone to tunnelling.
Together they are the perfect wax.

Can You Further Explain Soy Wax?

Soy candles are made from soy wax, which is a vegetable wax derived from the oil of soybeans. After harvesting, the soybeans are cleaned, cracked, de-hulled, and rolled into flakes. The oil is then extracted from these flakes and hydrogenated, converting some of the fatty acids in the oil from unsaturated to saturated. This process significantly alters the melting point of the oil, making it solid at room temperature and ideal for candle making.

How Long Do Soy Scented Candles Last Compared to Regular Candles?

Soy candles typically burn longer than paraffin candles. The exact burn time can vary greatly depending on the size of the candle, but generally speaking soy scented candles can burn up to 50% longer. This extended burn time is due to soy wax's lower melting point, which allows it to consume more slowly and evenly.

Are Scented Soy Wax Candles Better for Indoor Air Quality?

Yes, soy based candles are better for indoor air quality compared to traditional paraffin candles. Since soy wax is a cleaner-burning wax, it does not release toxins, carcinogens, or pollutants. This means less soot and smoke are produced when burning a soy candle, making it a healthier choice for indoor environments.

Can People with Allergies Use Soy Candles?

This is really hard to say but generally soy based candles are considered safer for people with allergies or sensitivities. Unlike paraffin candles that can emit harmful byproducts when burned, soy candles burn more cleanly and produce less soot. Additionally, many soy candle makers use higher quality fragrance oils or essential oils, reducing the risk of allergic reactions. However, individuals with specific sensitivities should always check the ingredients for potential allergens.

How Should I Care for My Soy Candle to Enhance Its Lifespan?

To maximize the lifespan of your soy candle, ensure to trim the wick to about 1/4 inch before each burn. This helps prevent soot build-up and ensures an even burn. Also, allow the wax to melt across the entire surface during the first burn to prevent tunneling. Avoid burning your candle for more than 4 hours at a time, and keep it away from drafts. Store your candle in a cool, dry place when not in use to preserve its fragrance and quality.
