1. What is scented candle wax?

A good scented candle is made from pure natural wax. Never use cheap paraffin at home or candles with too many chemical raw materials that are harmful to your body. Therefore, if you want to choose a good pure natural wax, you must first understand what pure natural materials are.

1. BEESWAX

Natural and pure beeswax is produced from Apis bee hives. It burns cleanly and brightly and can produce air-purifying negative ions. Negative ions combine with positively charged pollutants in the air and allergens, which are harmful to dust, pollen and mold in the room. Everything has a removal effect.

2. COCONUT WAX

Coconut wax is pure white and creamy in color, with a dense and soft texture, long burning time and low temperature, coconut wax candles can also be used as a balm or massage.

100% pure soy wax can burn impurities in the air to achieve the effect of air purification. Soy wax burns at a low temperature, which provides a good aroma and a longer burn time. Compared to traditional paraffin, soy wax does not contain harmful substances and allergens.

These three materials are all natural materials, and any of them can be chosen according to your preference. For babies and pets, you can choose soy wax, which is the most natural and pure material.

Secondly, which wax rod is comfortable to use?

The main structure of scented candles is a wax body and a wax core. The wax cores in the world mainly include cotton wax cores, wood wax cores and high quality carbon and lead free wicks. Different wax cores have different demand selection advantages.

1. Cotton Wax Wooden Wax Core

Regular scented candles usually use cotton rope and wood materials, and these candles will be accompanied by smoke when they are extinguished. Because the wood core is uneven, most will make a little noise when burning. If the wood is not good, there will be a smell, and black pieces of wood will fall into the wax puddle after the candle burns for a long time. Therefore, compared to these two materials, cotton is safer.

2. Carbon and lead free wick

High-end aromatherapy brands generally use selected wicks without carbon and lead, so that no toxic gas is released when burning, and when the wick is extinguished, it does not generate much smoke, and the wick will burn longer. Can completely burn the surrounding wax liquid. However, the disadvantage of this kind of scented candles is that they are expensive and there are no other disadvantages.
