“Scent throw”, means that the candle fills the room with a strong, lasting scent. Soy wax candles not only have a stronger scent throw, but also have cleaner smells. Many people have noted that paraffin wax candles give them headaches. Of course it’s not the scent itself, but the additional chemicals the paraffin is putting off. Because soy burns so clean, you’ll get a cleaner, longer lasting scent.
One of the best benefits of soy candles is that it is a renewable resource, grown right here in the United States. Soy candles actually support American farmers and the American economy! You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to know cheap paraffin candles made in other countries don’t benefit anyone but the big business selling it. Support our farmers and our economy with American grown soy!
Soy candles are not only clean burning; they also have a lower melting temperature so your candles are cooler, and safer! Plus, a lower melting point means your candle will last longer than paraffin candles ensuring more enjoyment of your soy candles while saving you money!
Stop buying those paraffin wax candles that contain harmful petroleum by-products! Soy candles cost less, burn longer and are better for your health and the environment!
The benefits of soy candles are plentiful. Since soy candles contain no petroleum, they are cleaner burning than tradition paraffin candles. Ever notice that black soot that collects on your jar candles? That soot is a result of the petroleum by-products in paraffin wax candles. It’s not only on the jar, it gets on your drapes and blinds, furniture, even in your ventilation system.
When you properly burn soy candles, that soot is a thing of the past! Cleaner burning candles mean no soot on your belongings, and no toxins in your air.
Did you know that soy wax candles are a relatively new product? Other types of natural waxes, like beeswax, have been used for centuries but it wasn’t until the early 1990’s that a man named Michael Richards developed soy wax while searching for a cheaper alternative for beeswax. You see, beeswax was up to 10 times more expensive than paraffin wax, a petroleum based wax that is still commonly used today. Soy wax is much cheaper than many natural wax products but in terms of benefits, that is just the beginning. Make sure to check back often, we will be posting more of the benefits of soy candles soon!
