Soy Wax
Soy wax candles verses Paraffin wax candles, Whats the difference?
Soy wax is natural, made from soybeans which is biodegradable, eco-friendly, and made from a renewable resource. Soy wax is non-toxic and does not produce the dangerous toxic soot that paraffin candles do. (Using lead and zinc free wicks also diminishes toxins).<
Paraffin is actually a petroleum by-product, a leftover residue of refined petroleum. Burning paraffin candles emits black soot and other harmful substances, including carcinogens and toxins. Soy wax supports American farmers - unlike paraffin, this promotes dependence on foreign oil products.
Soy wax is water soluble and cleans up easily with water. Soy wax burns at lower temperatures, which means your candle lasts longer than a paraffin candle. Soybean candles are a few dollars more than paraffin, but worth it for environment and health reasons. Be a supporter of US American made products! Soy Scent Creations uses Lead and Zinc free wicks.
