Benefits of Soy Candles
The Many Benefits of Soy Candles Did you know that there is a much better alternative to the standard wax candle that most people know and love? Once you read about the benefits of soy candles, you will never go back! Here are the major benefits that soy candles have to offer: 1. They burn loooooonger 2. The smoke does not contain carcinogens and other pollutants 3. Soy wax is biodegradable 4. Soy is a renewable resource 5. Melted soy wax is easy to remove and clean off With so many benefits over regular wax candles made from paraffin, it's easy to see why so many people are switching to soy candles. Let's take a look at each of these benefits in more detail. Soy Candles Burn Longer Candles made from soy wax burn slower, providing anywhere from 30-50% more "burn time" than a regular wax candle of the same size. Soy candles also hold their scent and color better, which means that the fragrance you enjoy from the first time the candle is lit will still smell as sweet until the moment the wick runs out. Non-Toxic Smoke Paraffin candles are known to contain carcinogens which are released into the air when burned. These carcinogens and other pollutants are not only unhealthy for the body, they also leave black, sooty deposits on your walls and ceiling. Soy candles, on the other hand, are non-toxic and contain no carcinogens. Your walls are safe with soy! Soy Wax is Biodegradable It's nice to know that your sweet smelling candle is causing no harm to the environment. Soy candles are biodegradable and help to lessen the load on landfills. Soy is a Renewable Resource Soy is a renewable resource, unlike petroleum which is quickly becoming more expensive due to its dwindling supply. Buying soy candles is not only a better choice for the environment, it also helps the economy. Many soy candles are produced from soy beans grown in the United States. Choosing soy candles over paraffin helps to support American farmers. Soy Wax is Water Soluble Getting out of a long bath and realizing that you will have to scrub the melted remains of your paraffin candle off the side of the bathtub can really ruin your relaxed mood. Thankfully, soy candles are water soluble and the melted wax can be easily removed with a little warm water and soap. Soy Candles - A Better Choice In summary, the many benefits of soy candles add up to a superior relaxing experience over paraffin candles. They burn longer and the little smoke that is produced is not damaging to you or your possessions. Soy candles are also better for the environment because they are a renewable resource and are biodegradable. |
