List of Ingredients: Soy Candle Wax, Phthalate-free Candle Fragrance
Ingredient Spotlight:
Soy Candle Wax--non-toxic and cleaner-burning, made with no toxins, carcinogens, or pollutants which means candles are less likely to trigger allergies. As a vegetable-based wax, soy does not give off any harmful byproducts or produce black soot that can stain walls and curtains like the other leading waxes. Soy wax is also environmentally friendly: a byproduct of soybeans, a renewable resource, and is more environmentally friendly than petroleum-based paraffin wax. Soy wax candles are also biodegradable and have a lower carbon footprint.
Phthalate-free Candle Fragrance: a good choice for people with sensitive skin or allergies because they don't contain synthetic chemicals that can irritate the skin.
How to Use: Soy candle wax has a "memory", so when you burn it and extinguish it, the next time you burn it, the wax will only melt as far as it did the first time. For your first use, please let your candle burn all the way across to the edge of the container, so that your wax will melt evenly each time. A good pool of wax gives the best scent throw. A general tip for the first use is to let your candle burn 1 hour for each inch wide the candle is. Trim the wick 14 inch before lighting. Only burn on a level, fire-resistant surface and do not leave unattended.
