What's so different about soy candles? Paraffin wax candles come from petroleum. So when you burn a paraffin candle you're emitting dirty smoke into your home and you're breathing it into your lungs. Paraffin is akin chemically to Alkane, which indicates hydrocarbons. Smoke from these candles discolor and stain the walls of the rooms you relax in. Soy wax comes from processing natural soybean oil. Since soy wax is a hydrogenated form of soybean oil, it's softer than paraffin wax and has a lower melting point. Therefore, it usually lasts longer than paraffin based candles, up to twice as long in fact. So, if you're looking for scented candles for relaxation, but want to be safe from harmful chemical effects, opt for a soy candle to emit the soft glow and warm scent into your home.
