DID YOU KNOW?
Many big-brand candle companies use paraffin wax and paraffin wax blends, a byproduct of petroleum, in their candles. While it might be a common choice due to its low cost, paraffin wax comes with significant drawbacks. When burned, paraffin wax candles release harmful toxins like benzene and toluene into the air, contributing to indoor air pollution. These pollutions are known to be carcinogenic and can cause respiratory issues, and even reproductive issues. Moreover, paraffin wax candles produce tons of black soot, which not only stains your walls but also contains tiny particles that can infiltrate your lungs, aggravating existing health conditions, especially in those with asthma and allergies. Choosing candles made from natural alternatives like soy wax not only supports a cleaner environment but also promotes healthier indoor air quality, ensuring YOU, your PETS, and your FAMILY, can enjoy some candlelight.
