soy + coconut wax blend

Although paraffin wax is the cheaper option, not many people know how toxic they are for you and your pets.

Since paraffin wax is made from petroleum, coal and shale oil, it has been found to contain carcinogens. Researchers at South Carolina State University found that melting paraffin wax-based candles emitted toxic toluene and benzene, while soy candles & wax did not.

The fossil fuels and soot form a black film around the edges of the jar. You know the black ring that forms when you're burning your candle? Unfortunately, thats what you're inhaling! Collectively emitting 11 toxins in the air - this is where your headaches come from!

Vegetable waxes (soy and coconut) and beeswax are sustainable, naturally sourced options considered safe for your health.

We are proud to say that our soy + coconut wax candles are paraben and phthalates FREE!

Parabens are chemically made preservatives, making beauty, grooming and other products to have a longer shel-life. Research shows that parabens can contribute to a host of problems related to hormones and fertility. 

Phthalates are a class of chemicals used in almost everything, from household cleaners to children's toys. They "plasticize", or help substances become more durable. 

We use 100% recyclable + reusable glass jars. We are also proudly BPA free and use only organic cotton wicks.

Our soy + coconut wax blend is 100% plant-based, vegan and kosher. This premium wax is made from soy beans and organic coconut oil, giving it a slow and clean burn.

It is a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to paraffin wax.

Our candle burns for about 80-90 hours.
