Let your love glow!
If you’re a nature lover, you know that the best way to experience it is through all your senses. That’s why using soy candles is such a great idea. Soy candles have many benefits over conventional, petroleum-based candles, as they are a great way to enjoy the multitude of benefits of Mother Nature while you relax. Keep reading to learn more about soy candles and the benefits they offer…
100% Natural!
The clean burning, natural soy candles are a much safer way of indulging in the wonderful world of candles. These candles are made from soy beans, which are renewable. Traditional paraffin candles are made from petroleum, a non-renewable source that contains carcinogenic substances, which emit toxic fumes.
Cleaner Burning
Say goodbye to allergies! Because of the cleaner burn of the soy candles, you are less likely to experience allergy symptoms when lighting the candles around your home and office. Besides just being healthier for humans, the soy candles are also a lot more environmentally friendly, so no nasties will be released into our precious atmosphere.
Longer Lasting
Soy wax has a lower melting point than paraffin wax. This means that soy wax burns cooler and will last longer than paraffin candles. An extended candle life means that you can enjoy delicious scents for much longer.
Stronger Smelling
A candle’s scent is emitted into the air from the wax pool that surrounds the wick. Because the melting point of soy wax is lower than paraffin, this means that there is usually a larger pool around the wick, resulting in a much stronger aroma.
Biodegradable and water soluble
Since soybeans are a vegetable, soy wax is naturally biodegradable. This makes accidental spills easier to clean up. No more hot water, irons and newspaper needed to clean wax spills from materials.
It’s more than just a candle
Yes, despite the core function being that of a candle, our Soy candles can also be used as a moisturiser, or for massages. Due to the lower melting point, the wax will not burn the skin, and will be absorbed and leave you with a glow.
