There are many benefits to vegan soy candles beyond limiting the use of animal byproducts. Did you know that paraffin candles can emit carcinogenic compounds? Because it’s derived from petroleum, breathing in paraffin wax candles fumes aren’t the healthiest thing to do. 

Vegan alternatives like soy candles, however, burn much cleaner and also support local farmers and small businesses. Other benefits of vegan soy candles are:

Soy is a renewable resource and non-toxic. 

Vegan candles also tend to burn longer and the leftover wax is biodegradable.

Soy wax can be easily cleaned with soap and water.

Vegan candles are often also more sustainable from a production standpoint, meaning fair-trade and locally sourced ingredients. 

Vegan candles release fragrance better so your home will smell amazing for longer.

Wax melts are a great alternative to burning candles, especially if you have children or pets. It’s safe, easy to clean, and offers the same great scent and longevity as traditional soy candles.
