Using Soy Candles For AromatherapyA Clean Burn, A Better Burn If you've ever used paraffin candles, you may have noticed the little wisps of smoke that tend to rise from the candles, or the way that scented jar candles often have slightly blackened jars when you're through. If you don't like the soot that results from burning paraffin candles, then turning to soy candles for aromatherapy will be a better option, since they burn much cleaner and produce less soot. From an aesthetic point of view, you'll have better luck with soy candles for aromatherapy. Soy candles burn more evenly and burn longer, which means you won't have the lopsided or sunken in sort of look that most paraffin-based candles exhibit. With an eye towards costs, aromatherapy with soy candles also works better, because that longer burn means you'll be enjoying the scents with your current candles for a longer time, meaning you'll need to buy replacements less often. An Environmentally-Friendly Crop As a crop, soy is very eco-friendly, which makes soy aromatherapy candles popular with the conservationist crowd. Not only is soy a key crop in many Asian countries, it's also a crop that's grown to replenish nutrients, particularly nitrogen, in the soil. On the other hand, paraffin candles are often made with chemicals that come from the petroleum industry, which means they come from the use of limited natural resources. The Benefits of Vegetable-Based Products Another advantage to soy candles for aromatherapy is that they are made of vegetable materials. From an aromatherapy standpoint, that means candle-makers have an easier time with mixing essential oils with the candle wax, resulting in a better-scented candle. From a waste standpoint, these candles are water soluble and biodegradable, which means even if you do throw away your soy aromatherapy candles, they'll break down and not add to the waste problem. So, for a clean-burning, eco-friendly, scented candles, turn to soy candles for aromatherapy. |
