Candles come in various shapes, sizes, and materials. One such material that has gained significant attention in recent years is pure soy wax. A natural and renewable product, soy wax is made from soybeans and is a solid form of soybean oil. Unlike paraffin, which is a by-product of crude oil refining, soy wax is a relatively pure compound with which candles are made. There are many reasons to choose soy wax candles over the traditional paraffin wax candles. Few of them are listed below:
Plant-derived Wax which means Eco-friendly
Soy Wax is popular for its natural and eco-friendly properties. A vegan can choose soy wax candles. You can find soy wax candles made from 100% organic soy oil. Soybeans are a sustainable resource and soy wax candles are 100% biodegradable. Soy candles are also scented with organic and natural essential oils.
Clean Burning
Soy wax candles produce less smoke than candles made from paraffin and will give you a cleaner burn. The air will be cleaner and safer for everyone, especially young children and the elderly, due to the fact that anyone sensitive to candle smoke will have a much easier time with soy wax. It is less likely that furniture, walls or ceilings will be damaged by smoke.
Longer Burn Time
Candles will last longer with soy wax because it burns more evenly. The extra expense is offset by the fact that your candles burn longer. The slower burning time and cooler burning temperature of the soybean-based wax provides a longer burn time, and in turn, a product you can enjoy longer! Although soy candles may seem priced higher than non-soy wax candles, you'll be spending less in the long run.
Better Fragrance Throw
Because soy candles burn more slowly, the scent is gradually released throughout the burn. This creates a more pleasant atmosphere and will not make your room overly fragrant. Also the fragrance oil blends much better with soy wax providing candles to give nice cold throw as well as hot throw.
