What You Didn’t Know About Most Candles Leave a comment

Did you know, most conventional candles are made of paraffin wax, which is a petroleum waste product that’s chemically bleached and that releases highly toxic benzene and toluene (known carcinogens) when burned? Totally yuck.

So, what should you look for when buying candles?

✓ Natural, made with plant-based wax or beeswax

✓ Free of petroleum

✓ Free of harmful synthetic fragrances

✓ Free of parabens

To make the search easier for you, Package Free has nontoxic candles, made by small vendors, that DELIVER on sustainability, zero waste, clean air, AND aesthetics.
