Studies have shown that paraffin-based candles, when lit, release toxic chemicals into the air, endangering everyone around it. So what's the alternative? Soy-based candles. You've probably heard of them as they've become very popular as of late. Soy-based candles are of course healthier than parrifin-based, but they also burn a little longer which is always a plus.
A lot of people use Glade candles (you've probably seen the commercials) which contain paraffins and cheap dyes. Here are a few candles below that are safe for everyone:
1. Kandle Indulgence candles burn up to 100+ hours due to their all natural ingredients and organic soy-based wax.
2. Indigo Wild's Zum Glow candles, $15-$22, come in ten scents and are made with just soy wax and a delightful blend of essential oils.
3. Wayfarer Candles is a company that makes beautiful all natural soy-based candles and packages them in either their 100% recycled paper/85% post-consumer waste with soy ink or their dreamy mesh tin container that can be re-used multiple times.
4. BsaB Candles offers a little luxury with exquisite scents and exotic packaging all centered around a safe, all natural candle.
5. The Soi Company's candles burn up to 140 hours, and come in many different scents.
