Candles indeed make a delightful addition to your home. The faint glow and flicker of a candle create the perfect cosy mood to relax and enjoy. However, there are a number of limitations associated with the use of regular candles. Paraffin candles are created from substances that release toxins into the air and can pollute your home with artificial chemicals and fragrances. They also emit carcinogens into the air like toluene and benzene.
Well, we have the perfect natural alternative that not only allows you to enjoy the golden glow but also purifies the air. If you are a candle-lover and eager to enjoy the aroma and ambiance created by candles, why not try making your own beeswax candles at home? Beeswax candles serve as an air purifier and have been used for centuries to fill spaces with a gorgeous aroma.
Beeswax candles make a healthy alternative to paraffin candles, with their ability to cleanse the air. When burned, beeswax produces negative ions. As opposite charges attract, the negative ions emitted by beeswax combine with the dust, dirt, and chemicals. The newly formed particles are heavy and are pulled down to be swept away or vacuumed. In this manner, beeswax cleans the air naturally and improves the quality of air of your home. Natural beeswax candles do not have any synthetic ingredients that can cause adverse reactions. Moreover, they burn longer than regular candles.
A by-product of the honey production process, Beeswax (or beewax) is used in a multitude of applications, from candle making to leather polishes and moisturisers.
