~ 99% of all candles on the market today are made from paraffin,
a by-product resulting from the petroleum refining industry...a
sludge from the bottom of the barrel.
~ Burning these candles in your home, is the same as burning
diesel fuel or pulling a car into your home.
~ Soot particles travel deep into the lungs. Breathing soot is
not recommended at all !!
~ EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) testing has found over
20 dangerous compounds in SIGNIFICANT quantities. Burning
paraffin candles can produce a variety of harmful toxins,
including benzene and toluene, known carcinogens, as well as
acetone and lead.
~ The soot from these materials contain not only carcinogens,
but neurotoxins and reproductive toxins.
~ The American Lung Association says, "Burning paraffin candles
can emit small amounts of toxins into the air."
~ My soy candles last up to 50% longer than candles made of
harmful petroleum-based paraffin, the ingredient found in 99% of
all candles.
~ Because my candles are handcrafted, each candle is unique.
~They are slower and cooler burning which creates a much better
fragrance distribution.
~ They are non-toxic, less likely to trigger allergies, clean up
with soap and water, and produce very little soot.
~ My candles are a favorite of the environmentally conscious
consumers. They are made from American-grown soybeans, which is
a biodegradable, renewable resource.
~ From a global point of view, we support the U.S. economy
instead of foreign oil conglomerates.
~ They are animal friendly (no animal testing!) and don't
contain animal fats, unlike many other candles on the market. |
