The air in your home contains plenty of particles and toxins, and if it is not cleaned regularly, the condition of your home’s air will inevitably get worse over time. And, if left unchecked, the air will get to the point where it is unhealthy and potentially hazardous to your health. Many people choose to use candles to create the home environment they want. Scents, candles, and air fresheners can be found in most homes. However, few people understand the effect that scents have on their homes.
In fact, humans have been using scents to communicate with others for thousands of years. In the past, scents were used as a way to communicate with others, as a way to create a positive mood, and also as a way to keep pests away. Scented candles come in a wide range of fragrances that give you a refreshing mood and freshness in your air. Scented candles can work as décor items, lending a touch of class and beauty to your space with a gift of refreshing indoor air.
Scented candles, whether decorative or burners, work to improve the ambiance of a home. By filling a room with a pleasant aroma, the candles can create a welcoming atmosphere for friends, family, and guests. The scents promote relaxation and can reduce stress levels, aid sleep, and help lift your mood. But, what specific reasons should you consider and why should you invest in scented candles? There are a few types of scented candles that you should buy to embrace your home environment.
1. Paraffin Wax Scented Candles
All-natural, environmentally friendly, and organic paraffin wax scented candles are a great way to enhance a home’s interior. In fact, the process of making these candles is one of the oldest methods of making candles and has been used for thousands of years. Paraffin wax scented candles are sometimes called “Pure Therapeutic Grade” or “Natural Paraffin” or “All Natural Candles.” These candles are the most popular type of paraffin scented candle.
2. Soy Wax Scented Candles
Candle making has been around for centuries, but recently its popularity has grown. Vegan candles are made with soy wax, which is made from the soybean, a common plant found in many parts of the world. Soy wax is also biodegradable and is rich in vitamins and antioxidants, making it an environmentally friendly alternative to real wax. Soy wax is commonly used in all types of candle making, including soy wax scented candles. Although soy wax is not considered to be flammable, it can still melt in the presence of strong heat. For this reason, you should never leave soy wax candles burning unattended or overnight.
3. Beeswax Scented Candles
Did you know that some candles are made by burning beeswax? The bees literally give their lives for our candle enjoyment. Beeswax is a long-lasting wax that burns cleanly without smoke or harmful fumes. It is made from the wax glands of honey bees, which also provide honey to us to enjoy.
Beeswax has been used in candles for hundreds of years and is enjoyed by humans for its pleasant scent, which is what gives beeswax-scented candles their characteristic aroma. The main ingredient in beeswax is beeswax (sometimes called bee wax), which is obtained from the glands of the abdomen of the stingless bee, Apis mellifera. Beeswax is usually white in color, although it can be yellow, orange, light brown, dark brown, or dark reddish-brown.
