Why does my soy wax look like that?
In today’s mass-market world, people have become accustomed to perfectly smooth colorful candles. The reality is that most mass-produced candles are a blend of chemical enhancers, preservatives, hardeners, paraffin, or other waxes to create that look. We only use 100% soy wax and a blend of essential oils and clean fragrance oils in our candles. Due to the organic nature of pure soy wax, individual candles may vary slightly in texture and appearance.
