Many of us are focused on getting the toxins out of our homes these days, as it's becoming clear that harmful chemicals and pollutants in many common household products are dangerous for our health. One simple yet powerful way to reduce the toxins in your home is to choose a healthier candle. Most of the candles we are used to purchasing are full of synthetic materials and chemicals that release toxins when burned. Enter beeswax candles: a natural, clean-burning alternative you can feel good about using in your home.
Unlike paraffin candles, beeswax candles are made from 100% natural, renewable beeswax. Beeswax is harvested directly from hives and has been touted for centuries for its many benefits. There are no synthetic materials or harmful chemicals in beeswax, so you don't release pollutants into the air whenever you burn beeswax candles. Even better, beeswax candles don't produce soot, which means they won't leave residue on surfaces or send allergy-inducing particles into the air. In fact, beeswax naturally produces negative ions when burned, which helps neutralize dust, pollen, and other airborne pollutants. You can actually improve air quality by burning beeswax candles!
Commercial candles often use artificial fragrances that contain dangerous chemicals like phthalates and parabens, but beeswax candles have a natural, subtle honey scent that comes directly from the wax itself. Beeswax fragrance is gentle and non-toxic, ideal for those who like a subtle fragrance that isn't overpowering. The soft, flickering light of a beeswax candle can transform any room into a peaceful, cozy space — we love lighting a few candles on a rainy night. Beeswax candles burn much longer than paraffin and soy candles, making them a sustainable, eco-friendly choice for ambiance, gifting, and holiday decor.
