Are soy candles better than regular candles? Are soy candles healthier than other candles? Are they worth the extra money? We say that YES Soy candles are the way to go! But these are all questions that come to mind when making the difficult decision of deciding which candle to buy. We are here to help you make those decisions. Here are our top points.
Reason No.1
Candles that aren’t made from soy wax, are mostly made from paraffin wax, which is an un-natural wax. Unlike paraffin, soy wax is made purely from soybeans. To get right to the point, paraffin wax contains two cancer causing agents (carcinogens) which, by the name, you can guess what they do. But that’s not all. Paraffin wax contains 11 different toxins altogether and, when breathed in consistently, they can affect the nervous system, cause liver and kidney damage, blindness, headaches and many more scary symptoms. It’s not worth the risk! At Black Safari we sell only pure, 100% natural soy wax candles.
Reason No. 2
A candle can be classified as a "Soy Candle" if it is over 51% Pure Soy wax. This means it could still contain Paraffin and other baddies that you really don't want to breathe in. At Black Safari, our wax is 100% natural and vegan. This is why Black Safari Soy Candles are so good for you to inhale, and yet, still smell so utterly delicious!
Reason No.3
Soy candles don’t feel cheap. We all know the feeling. (We do anyhow 🙋♀️) That candle you just bought quickly, thinking it would satisfy but its that kind of candle. The foul smelling one that seems to curse everything and anything it comes in contact with to have that smell forever. It doesn’t burn evenly. It smokes everywhere, and the wick breaks when you touch it. Black Safari soy scented candles have the complete opposite feel. Luxurious, refreshing, and perfectly satisfactory scent.
Overall, don’t buy regular, non-eco-friendly candles, Buy soy candles! They are most definitely worth those extra dollars. You can find them here, completely natural, wonderfully scented candles. See which candle scent wins your heart!
