Soy VS. Paraffin Wax

I am absolutely in love with soy wax candles. Why I've chosen to burn soy wax candles over paraffin wax candles. Here are the facts:


Did you know paraffin wax is the same as found in diesel fuel fumes?

Safer alternatives are those that use a cotton or paper wick. At Country Scents Candles we use 100% cotton wicks. Unscented or scented candles with essential oils are safer. Well again at Country Scents Candles our candles we use essential oils. You'll never find our candles using fragrance oils.  Candles should always be made with 100% soy, beeswax, coconut wax, hemp oil, or a combination that does not contain paraffin. You are in luck again because our candles are made with 100% Soy Wax. 

Essential VS. Fragrance Oil

Synthetic fragrance oil is NOT aromatherapy. Essential Oil (EO) are steam-distilled pure plant extracts used for scenting or aromatherapy. Fragrance Oil (FO) are synthetically made chemical scent compounds. 

For all these reasons, plus some are reason's why I have chosen to burn only 100% soy wax candles in my home. I would not and do not want myself, pets nor children to have to beath in paraffin wax that comes from oil and gas industries. I prefer to support my local/American Farmers.
