All My candles are made with Eco Soya 100% Soy wax, the healthy alternative to paraffin. Candles made with Eco Soya 100 % Soy wax have unique benefits and characteristics:
• Soy Candles are all natural, non-toxic, biodegradable and environmentally friendly
• LaNette’s Soy Candles contain only lead-free cotton wicks which have been pre-dipped in vegetable wax.
• Soy Wax burns cooler and slower tha
n paraffin, increasing its burn time by up to 50%.
• Soy Candles emit so little soot that even asthmatics can use them safely.
• If tipped over, the cooler, liquid top of a Soy Candle will drown the flame, reducing the possibility of fire.
• Soy Candles are fragranced right through the Wax, so they hold their scent to the very last burn. My Candles have the maximum scent load making the candle stronger than most.
• If cared for correctly, an unused Soy Candle will keep its fragrance for at least 2 years and as long as 4 years.
• Soy wax may appear crusty or marbled on the surface. Gives a unique look. Soy wax may appear to have "wet spots" caused by expansion and contraction of the wax due to temperature variations. Care and Safety of Soy Candles
1. Soy candles are sensitive to light and extremes of temperature. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
2. Should sweating occur, restore candle by briefly placing in refrigerator.
3. Remove all wrappings, ribbons and tags before burning candles.
4. Always burn candles on a heat resistant surface away from drafts, flammable objects, children and pets.
5. Never leave a burning candle unattended.
6. To avoid spills and burns, do not move candle while wax is hot and melted.
7. To prevent an uneven burn, avoid drafts and center wick with a wick dipper or end of a metal spoon.
8. To maximize burn time, and prevent smoke and high flame, only burn candle for 2-3 hours at a time, use a wick trimmer to keep wick trimmed to 1/4 inch and remove all trimmings.
9. Prevent smoke when extinguishing candle by dipping wick into wax with a wick dipper, use a candle snuffer or simply jut put a lid on it. Enjoy your handmade Soy Candle!
