Soy candles vs. Conventional Wax Candles

Why use Soy candles? Use soy candles over paraffin: they're cheaper, they burn cleaner, and they're easier on the planet.

Protect the planet: Soy candles are made from soybean oil and beeswax, two renewable resources, whereas paraffin is a by-product of petroleum. Soy candles also produce less soot, although neither kind poses a serious risk to asthma or allergies unless you're standing over the flame.

Natural scents: It's best to use candles scented with natural essential oils, especially if you have any respiratory issues. Avoid synthetic scents and clear your home of any strongly scented potpourri or air fresheners.

Protect your skin: When you burn a synthetically scented candle, the oils vaporize; if you're close enough to come into contact with them, you put yourself at risk of developing contact dermatitis, a type of rash.

Read the label: Look for candles labeled soy. No matter what type of candle you burn, open the windows and air out the room afterward.

All of the candles in the Dr. Ro Bath & Body Therapy Collection are Soy candles. Try the Euphoria candle, a 12oz. glass tumbler with lid soy-blend candle made with Ylang-Ylang, lemongrass, and sandalwood. What can we say? Take a whiff, the name says it all. It is simply euphoric!
