Frequently Asked Questions and Best Practices
Coconut Soy candles are made from soybeans which not only supports your local agriculture community, but supports and benefits your health. When you burn soy based candles you are not releasing carcinogenic chemicals into the air unlike the paraffin based candle counterparts sold in most stores.
Our candles are also low in soot. You can also say goodbye to toxins in your air as they burn because coconut soy candles are non-toxic!
Although coconut soy candles might initially be more expensive than their paraffin counterparts, in the long run they will last you much longer. Coconut soy based candles have a longer burn life because our wax burns much slower and at a much cooler temperature than paraffin wax. This biodegradable option means you will be benefiting the environment around you as well as your wallet because you will need to buy fewer candles over your lifetime due to the longevity of the wax.
Soy candles provide a less in-your face scent and create an aroma that wraps your senses in gentle notes of fragrance. The reasoning behind this is that instead of chemical perfumes to create the scent, soy candles are scented with natural elements and essential oils. Essential oils slowly release scent over time which leads to a very gradual addition of sweet notes of natural fragrance to your environment.
