A soy candle is a type of candle made from soy wax, which is derived from the oil of soybeans. This natural wax is a popular alternative to traditional paraffin wax, as it is renewable and biodegradable. Soy candles burn cleaner, producing less soot and releasing fewer toxins into the air, making them a healthier choice for indoor use. In addition to being eco-friendly, soy candles often have a longer burn time compared to paraffin candles. They can hold fragrance well, allowing for a variety of scents to be infused into the wax. Many people enjoy using soy candles for relaxation, ambiance, or as decorative pieces in their homes.
