SOY WAX - ABOUT YOU, ENVIRONMENT AND QUALITY
When buying a candle, people rarely have think about its origin. Fragrance, price and candle appearance are usually key factors in purchasing candles.
Much of the candles you buy in stores are made of paraffin. Paraffin is a fairly practical material, it is cheaper, so candles can be sold at lower cost, paraffin use is much easier. But when you buy a candle, it's important to be aware that everything used to make the candle will once, directly or indirectly, end up in your airways.
Unfortunately, we have to say that paraffin is neither an environmentally or health-friendly alternative. While inhaling any burning material is not harmless, paraffin should be avoided because it is made from crude oil.
Nowadays, waxes of natural origin such as soy, coconut or rapeseed wax have gained more popularity.
To make our candles and wax melts we've chosen soy wax, which is sourced from soybeans. While the cost of soy wax may be more expensive, it feels like a great contribution to wellness, as with soy wax we can avoid inhaling black soot and the harmful gases that can come from burning paraffin waxes. Soy wax provides a smooth and clean burning that will provide a pleasant atmosphere in the room!
FRAGRANCE OILS
Making scented candles and other products is not possible without fragrance oils.
Most aromatic products use 2 types of oils: aromatic oils or essential oils.
You can look at the oil used in the product you want in the description of each product.
The main information below will help you understand the importance and use of oils.
ESSENTIAL OILS
Essential oils are made from concentrates of different plants and are a natural alternative.
While essential oils are indeed the healthiest alternative, their application in the production of heated products is unfortunately more complicated, as essential oils are generally less resistant to the high heat that occurs in the candle making process.
A large amount of raw materials is required to obtain essential oil. The cost of essential oil is therefore much higher, but it is a great alterative that is recommended for use by sensitive people.
AROMATIC OILS
Mostly for our products we have chosen to use artificially produced aromatic oils. In our opinion, aromatic oils offer the best aroma quality.
Aromatic oils are great for making heated products, with much wider fragrance variations available.
While the expression '' artificially created'' may seem daunting to someone, we use only certified and carefully made aromatic oils to make products, which are produced according to standards and purchased from responsible distributors.
