Frequently asked questions
What is soy wax?
Soy wax is derived from from soybeans, a natural and renewable resource. Our soy wax candles burn cleaning and longer than other candle products, soy wax burns at a lower temperate so the scent tends to be stronger and longer lasting. If you accidentally knockover a candle, the wax is very easy to clean up with hot soapy water.
