- Environmental Impact: Paraffin candles are made from petroleum, a non-renewable resource obtained from fossil fuels. The extraction and processing of petroleum can have detrimental effects on the environment, including air pollution, water contamination, and habitat destruction. In contrast, natural candles are made from renewable resources like beeswax or soy, which have a lower environmental impact.
- Health Concerns: Burning paraffin candles can release potentially harmful substances into the air, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and soot. These emissions can contribute to indoor air pollution and may cause or exacerbate respiratory problems, allergies, and other health issues. Natural candles, on the other hand, produce fewer emissions and are generally considered safer for indoor air quality.
- Cleaner Burn: Natural candles tend to burn cleaner than paraffin candles. They produce minimal soot and smoke, resulting in a healthier and more enjoyable environment. Paraffin candles, especially those of lower quality, may emit black soot that can stain walls, furniture, and fabrics.
- Longer Burning Time: Natural candles, particularly those made from beeswax, often have a longer burn time compared to paraffin candles. Beeswax candles have a higher melting point, which means they burn more slowly and can last longer, providing more value for your money.
- Natural Scent: Many natural candles are scented with essential oils, which are derived from natural plant sources. These oils offer a pleasant and natural fragrance without the use of synthetic fragrances found in some paraffin candles. This makes natural candles a preferable choice for those who are sensitive to artificial scents or prefer a more authentic aroma.
