Beeswax
Beeswax is a truly special candle wax—it’s all-natural, non-toxic, and even purifies the air as it burns by releasing negative ions that help neutralize pollutants. Unlike paraffin, which is a byproduct of petroleum and can release harmful chemicals when burned, beeswax is clean-burning and safe to breathe. It’s also more durable than soy, holding its shape better in warm temperatures and offering a longer burn time. Plus, its subtle honey scent and golden glow make it a beautiful, wholesome choice for a healthier home.

Coconut oil is a gentle, nourishing addition to candles that helps create a smooth, even burn while softening the wax just enough to boost scent throw. It's a natural, plant-based oil that's clean-burning and safe—free from synthetic additives or toxins. When blended with beeswax, it enhances the candle’s texture and helps essential oils disperse more evenly, making for a more consistent and aromatic experience. Plus, coconut oil has a light, barely-there scent that pairs beautifully with any blend without overpowering it.
