What We Stand For

• Natural Ingredients: We use 100% soy wax in our candles, ensuring a clean and long-lasting burn. Soy wax is biodegradable, renewable, and produces less soot than traditional paraffin wax, making it a healthier option for your home.

• Non-Toxic & Pet-Friendly: We are committed to using only non-toxic, eco-friendly ingredients in all our products. Our candles, diffusers, and soaps are designed to be safe for your family, your pets, and the environment. You can feel good about lighting our candles, knowing that they will not release harmful chemicals or pollutants into your home.

• The Benefits of Soy Wax: Soy wax is naturally derived from soybeans, and it burns cleaner, longer, and cooler than paraffin wax. It's the perfect choice for those who want to enjoy a longer-lasting fragrance without compromising on their health or the environment. Plus, it’s easy to clean up if spills happen—just soap and water!

• Pet-Friendly: We understand how important your furry companions are. That's why our candles and diffusers are made with natural, pet-safe ingredients that won't harm your pets. Whether you're lighting a candle during a cozy evening or using a diffuser to fill your home with fragrance, rest assured your pets are safe.

• Soy candles are a popular choice for many candle enthusiasts, and they come with a variety of benefits that make them stand out, especially when compared to traditional paraffin wax candles. Here’s a closer look at the advantages of soy candles:

  ### Benefits of Soy Candles

  1. *Natural and Renewable*: Soy wax is made from soybeans, a renewable resource. This makes soy candles a more environmentally friendly option compared to paraffin candles, which are derived from petroleum.

  2. *Cleaner Burn*: Soy candles tend to burn cleaner than their paraffin counterparts. They produce less soot and fewer harmful chemicals, which can be beneficial for indoor air quality.

  3. *Longer Burning Time*: Soy candles generally have a longer burn time than paraffin candles. This means you can enjoy your candle for extended periods without needing to replace it frequently.

  4. *Even Burn*: Soy wax has a lower melting point, which allows for a more even and consistent burn. This can make for a better scent throw and a more enjoyable experience.

  ### Essential Oils and Scent

  When it comes to fragrance, many soy candles are infused with essential oils rather than synthetic fragrances. Here are some key points regarding essential oils in soy candles:

  - *Natural Fragrance*: Essential oils provide a natural way to add scent to candles without the use of harsh chemicals. Depending on the oil used, you can benefit from aromatherapy properties as well.

  - *Phthalate-Free*: Many reputable soy candle makers ensure that their products are phthalate-free. Phthalates are chemicals often used in synthetic fragrances and are known for their potential health risks. Choosing soy candles that explicitly mention being phthalate-free allows you to enjoy a safer, more natural product.

  ### Overall Experience

  Using soy candles can enhance your home ambiance while being mindful of health and environmental impacts. It’s essential to choose high-quality soy candles from reputable brands that prioritize natural ingredients and transparency about their fragrance components. This way, you can enjoy the beauty and soothing effects of candles while also feeling confident in your choices.
