5 Reasons to Switch to Soy Wax Candles
Candles have been a staple in homes for centuries, offering warmth, ambiance, and a touch of luxury. But not all candles are created equal. If you’re looking for a sustainable and healthier alternative to traditional candles, soy wax candles are the way to go. At Coastal Glow Candles, we’re proud to use eco-friendly soy wax in all our handcrafted creations. Here are five compelling reasons why you should make the switch to soy wax candles today.
1. Eco-Friendly and Sustainable
Soy wax is made from soybeans, a renewable and biodegradable resource. Unlike paraffin wax, which is derived from petroleum, soy wax is a natural alternative that’s better for the environment. By choosing soy wax candles, you’re supporting sustainable practices and reducing your carbon footprint. Plus, Coastal Glow Candles takes sustainability a step further with our refillable vessels, allowing you to reuse your candle containers again and again.
2. Cleaner Burn
Have you ever noticed black soot on your walls or candle jars after burning a traditional candle? That’s a common issue with paraffin wax. Soy wax candles, on the other hand, burn much cleaner, producing little to no soot. This makes them a healthier choice for your home and family, especially if you’re sensitive to indoor air quality.
3. Longer Burn Time
Soy wax burns at a lower temperature than paraffin wax, which means your candles last significantly longer. This slower burn gives you more time to enjoy your favorite scents and makes soy wax candles a cost-effective option. At Coastal Glow Candles, our Luxe Candle Collection is designed to provide hours of indulgent fragrance and ambiance.
4. Non-Toxic and Safe
Traditional candles often contain harmful chemicals, including phthalates and synthetic fragrances, that can release toxins into the air when burned. Soy wax candles are a safer alternative, especially when paired with non-toxic, phthalate-free fragrances like the ones we use at Coastal Glow Candles. You can enjoy the comforting glow of a candle without worrying about harmful chemicals.
5. Better Scent Throw
Soy wax has an excellent scent throw, both cold (when the candle is unlit) and hot (when the candle is burning). It holds fragrance oils well, ensuring that your space is filled with rich, long-lasting aromas. Whether you love the earthy tones of Sandalwood & Blue Sage or the sweet notes of Grilled Peaches & Brown Sugar, soy wax candles deliver a superior fragrance experience.
