Candle waxes
Candle waxes are the materials used to make the solid part of the candle. They play a crucial role in determining the candle's combustion, lifespan, and appearance. There are several types of candle waxes used in candle making, the most common being paraffin wax, beeswax, soy wax, and rapeseed wax.
Paraffin wax : This is the most commonly used wax. It is of mineral origin and is known for its clean burning and stability.
Beeswax : This natural wax is produced by bees to build their combs. It has a pleasant natural scent and burns cleanly. Beeswax is valued for its quality.
Soy Wax : Made from soybean oil, this wax is a vegan and environmentally friendly alternative. It burns clean and can also be blended with other ingredients to create scented candles.
Rapeseed wax : It is derived from rapeseed oil and is considered a natural and renewable alternative. Rapeseed wax offers a clean burn and can also be used to create scented candles. Like soy wax, it is often chosen by those who prefer plant-based and sustainable options for their candles.
