Why LouBelle chooses 100% natural candles
To share
There are countless options available in the world of candles, but not all candles are created equal. At Loubelle, we've consciously chosen a blend of beeswax and soy wax instead of the usual paraffin. In this blog post, we explain why this choice is not only better for the environment, but also for your health and the overall candle-burning experience.
What is paraffin and why is it not ideal?
Paraffin is a byproduct of the oil industry and is often used in candle production. While it's inexpensive and offers a good burn time, there are several reasons why paraffin isn't the best choice:
- Chemicals: Burning paraffin releases toxic chemicals, including benzene and toluene, which can be harmful to health.
- Environmental impact: Paraffin production is unsustainable; it relies on fossil fuels, which contributes to climate change.
- No odor absorption: Paraffin candles are often unscented, meaning they don't hold the natural aromas of essential oils well.
The benefits of beeswax
Beeswax is a natural product produced by bees. It has several advantages that make it an excellent choice for candles:
- Natural and safe: Beeswax is free of chemical additives and is completely natural. It's safe for home use and has no harmful side effects.
- Longer Burn Time: Beeswax candles burn longer than their paraffin counterparts, giving you more bang for your buck.
- Improves air quality: Beeswax is known to release negative ions that help purify the air and reduce allergens.
- Natural Scent: Beeswax has a mild, natural honey scent that can enhance the ambiance of your home without being overpowering.
The benefits of soy wax
Soy wax is made from soybeans and is a popular choice among those looking for a natural alternative to paraffin. Here are a few reasons why Loubelle also uses soy wax in our candles:
- Sustainable: Soy wax comes from a renewable source, making it an environmentally friendly choice.
- Burns more evenly: Soy wax burns more evenly and provides a consistent fragrance release, which is ideal for aromatherapy.
- Vegan: Soy wax is a plant-based product, making it suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
- Affordable: Soy wax is often less expensive than beeswax, making it an attractive option for producers.
The perfect combination: beeswax and soy wax
At Loubelle, we've combined the benefits of beeswax and soy wax in our candles. This unique blend offers several advantages:
- Optimal fragrance diffusion: The combination of beeswax and soy wax ensures excellent fragrance diffusion, allowing you to optimally enjoy the scent of the essential oils in our candles.
- Long burn time: Thanks to the properties of both waxes, our candles burn longer than traditional paraffin candles.
- Environmentally responsible: By choosing a blend of natural waxes, we contribute to a more sustainable world.
Health and well-being
Choosing beeswax and soy wax not only benefits the environment but also your health. Burning natural wax candles reduces exposure to harmful chemicals often found in paraffin candles. This makes our candles a healthier option for anyone concerned about indoor air quality.
