Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle,
and the life of the candle will not be shortened.
Happiness never decreases by being shared.
Why Choose Soy Wax?
Take the lid off and sniff! How else would you make a decision on which candle to buy for your home? Do you check the label to see what kind of wax you will be burning? Does it matter? The majority of mass-produced candle companies may have soy as an ingredient, but the candles are not made from soy wax. Paraffin is the most commonly used candle wax today with beeswax, soy wax, palm wax, synthesized waxes, and a blend of multiple are all options as well. Out of all the options, soy wax is the most beneficial both to you and the environment. That’s why at Elescents By Swoo our candles are made of 100% soy wax.
Benefits of Soy Wax
Soy Wax is non-toxic and cleaner-burning being made with no toxins, carcinogens, or pollutants which means our candles are less likely to trigger allergies. As a vegetable-based wax, it does not give off any harmful biproducts or produces black soot that can stain walls and curtains like the other leading waxes.
Soy wax has a lower melting point than paraffin wax and because of this, soy candles will burn slower and longer than paraffin candles. Oils evaporate better from a larger surface area and with the lower heat and larger melt pool soy wax creates the scent that will be that much stronger and more pleasant.
Soy wax is easier to clean because it is biodegradable. It can be easily cleaned up with soap and water.
Soy Wax is Natural, Renewable and Vegan derived from the soybean. This wax is a hydrogenated vegetable oil that turns to a solid at room temperature.
