Each has different fragrances, but all use all natural soybean wax instead of petroleum-based wax in their candles.  There are so many benefits to soy wax over petroleum-based or paraffin wax. 

Here are a few:


Natural Soy Bean Wax

          

Petroleum-based or Paraffin Wax
  1. Natural Soy Wax Candles burn cooler, more uniformly and last up to 50% longer with no waste.
  2. Because Natural Soy Wax Candles burn cooler, they distribute their fragrance faster and for a longer period of time.
  3. Natural Soy Wax Candles burn cleaner and are virtually soot free.
  4. Natural Soy Wax Candles are biodegradable and water soluable.  Spills are easily cleaned up with some hot soapy water.
  5. Natural Soy Wax Candles are non-toxic and non-carcinogenic.  This means they are the most environmentally friendly candle available.
  6. Natural Soy Wax Candles do NOT increase the CO2 level in the atmosphere.
  7. Natural Soy Wax Candles are made from all natural Soy Beans which are farm grown in the USA.  Soy is a totally renewable resource and buying soy products support our economy!
  8. Natural Soy Wax Candles are much less expensive than the other natural type of wax -- beeswax.
  9. Natural Soy Wax can be mixed with other natural products such as beeswax, coconut oil, and other natural substances to give the wax a creamy consistancy and better allow the fragrance to blend with the wax.
 
  1. Paraffin Wax Candles burn very hot and fast.  They also burn very unevenly, often burning down the middle of the candle called tunneling.
  2. Paraffin Wax Candles are mede from petroleum, the same thing that you put in your car, however a candle does not have a catalytic converter like your car does.  The result of this is BLACK SOOT!
  3. Paraffin Wax Candles are NOT biodegradable or water soluable.  Spilled paraffin wax is difficult to clean, frequently damaging carpets, clothing and furniture.
  4. Paraffin Wax Candles contain numerous toxins and carcinogens.  These are evaporated in the air you breathe while they are burning.
  5. Paraffin Wax Candles are made from petroleum-based by-products.  Petroleum, as you know, is not a renewable resource and most of it is imported into the USA.  So whose economy are we supporting??
