Benefits of Soy Wax Candles vs. Traditional Candles

🧡 Why choose soy wax candles?

At Vesentia, we believe that a candle is more than just light: it's an experience. Choosing soy wax candles means opting for quality, well-being, and sustainability from the very first moment.

Unlike traditional candles made with paraffin (derived from petroleum), our soy candles are made from 100% natural vegetable wax , which is kind to your environment and your health.

🌿 1. Cleaner and healthier combustion

One of the great advantages of soy wax candles is that they burn cleaner than paraffin candles. This means:

• Less smoke and soot
• Cleaner indoor air
• Walls and furniture free of black deposits

This creates a healthier and more comfortable environment, especially important if you like to light candles frequently.

⏳ 2. Longer lasting — more light for your money

Soy wax has a lower melting point, allowing the candle to melt and burn more slowly and evenly.
Result: you can enjoy up to 30–50% more light time than with traditional candles.

This is especially valuable if you use your candles to relax, set the mood in your space, or create special moments.

🌸 3. Better, more natural and longer-lasting aroma

Thanks to the natural structure of soy wax, essential oils and fragrances blend in better. This means:

• Fragrances that are released more gradually
• A more balanced and persistent aroma
• A more pleasant and less “chemical” olfactory experience

In other words: you don't just illuminate — you also envelop your space in a unique atmosphere.

🌍 4. Ecological and sustainable

Traditional paraffin candles are derived from petroleum—a non-renewable resource—and their production has a high environmental impact.
In contrast, soy wax:

• It comes from soy, a renewable plant resource.
• It is biodegradable and easier to clean with soap and water.

Choosing soy is a way to live more ecologically conscious — and that's reflected in your home too.

🌬️ 5. Fewer chemicals — more comfort

While paraffin candles can release synthetic compounds when burned, soy candles typically contain no toxins . This makes them a safer option, especially if there are children, pets, or sensitive individuals in the home.
