Question 1

Are Charmed Candles made with Natural Soy Wax?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Charmed Candles are made with 100% natural soy wax, which is renewable, eco-friendly, and burns cleaner than traditional paraffin wax. While we use natural wax for a pure and clean burn, we do add high-quality fragrance oils to create the captivating scents you love.

Question 2

What is the difference between soy wax candles and paraffin candles?

Accepted Answer

The main difference between soy wax and paraffin wax candles is the source and environmental impact. Soy wax is made from renewable, natural soybeans, making it eco-friendly, biodegradable, and a cleaner-burning option. It also produces less soot compared to paraffin wax, which is derived from petroleum and can release harmful toxins when burned. Soy wax candles tend to have a longer burn time and retain fragrance better. On the other hand, paraffin candles are often cheaper but can negatively impact air quality and the environment.

Question 3

How do I care for my soy wax candles?

Accepted Answer

To get the most out of your soy wax candle, always trim the wick to about ¼ inch before lighting it each time. This helps prevent the flame from getting too large and ensures an even burn.

Let the candle burn for at least 2-3 hours during the first use to allow the wax to melt evenly across the surface - This is because soy wax has a memory, meaning the candle will only melt to the point where it was last extinguished.

Never leave a candle burning unattended, and always place it on a heat-resistant surface. When you’re finished, allow the candle to cool completely before handling or re-lighting.

please note: you may notice Crystallisation, or "frosting," this is a natural characteristic of soy wax. While this doesn’t affect the candle's performance or fragrance, it’s a sign that you have a high quality natural soy wax blend.
