Not All Candles Are Created Equal: What You Burn Matters

Candles do more than light up a room—they set the mood, create calm, and bring warmth into your home. But while most people are drawn in by pretty packaging or irresistible scents, few stop to consider what the candle is actually made of. And that small detail? It matters—a lot.

At the heart of every candle is wax. It’s the fuel that carries the scent, dictates how cleanly it burns, and impacts the air you breathe. But with so many types of wax out there—from paraffin to soy, beeswax to coconut—it can be hard to know what’s really safe, sustainable, and worth your money.

In this guide, we break down the different types of candle wax, from natural to synthetic, and reveal why 100% soy wax is the gold standard for health-conscious, eco-minded candle lovers. We’ll explore the pros and cons of each wax, examine common myths, and teach you how to read a candle label like a pro.

Whether you're shopping for yourself or buying a gift, this is your go-to guide for choosing candles that are better for your body, your home, and the planet.
