How are soy wax candles different from paraffin candles?
Soy wax candles are safer and burn cleaner than paraffin candles because soy wax candles are non-toxic and are made from all-natural soybeans, a renewable resource grown by American farmers. Paraffin wax is a derivative of petroleum that emitts 11 toxins and two carcinogens when burned. Soy wax candles produce none of the harmful carbons and black soot emissions of paraffin wax. Soy wax candles burn cooler and longer than paraffin candles, and release fragrances naturally and longer than paraffin wax.
