  • Soy wax burns with zero petro soot, creating petro soot free candles.
  • Soy Wax is non-toxic and cleaner-burning being made with no toxins, carcinogens, or pollutants which means our candles are less likely to trigger allergies.
  • As a vegetable-based wax, it does not give off any harmful byproducts or produce black soot that can stain walls and curtains like the other leading waxes.
  • Soy candles are candles made from soy wax, which is a processed form of soybean oil. They are usually container candles, because soy wax typically has a lower melting point than traditional waxes, but can also be made into pillar candles if certain additives are mixed into the soy wax.
  • Soy wax is much better for the environment. Aside from the fact that it does not pollute the air when burning, it is also completely sustainable. There is no harm done to our planet as soy wax is plant based rather than extracted from oil. Once the soya has been harvested more can be grown again and again.
  • One of the primary benefits of soy wax is that it produces much less soot when burned than paraffin, allowing you to enjoy a cleaner burn. Furthermore, soy candles do not leave the sooty residues associated with paraffin candles, which are typically left on the sides of the candle holder.
These are all the reason we only use the soy wax. All our candles from scented tealights, melts to jar candles, all are made from best quality natural soy wax. Rest assure when buying from White Magic Candles, we care about our planet and people.
