Candles don't purify the air, especially if you're burning paraffin candles.
Burning paraffin candles releases pollutants into the air such as particulate matter, sooth and harmful chemicals such as formaldehyde and benzene.
Although some people believe that beeswax candles purify the air by releasing negative ions but there's no actual evidence that suggests or fully supports that the beeswax candles actually purify the air.
Soy wax is not toxic and does not release toxic chemicals into the air like paraffin waxes do and candles made from soy wax are considered the healthiest candle along with beeswax candles.
Soy wax is the most eco friendly candle wax and is clean burning and safe for your lungs and is a great alternative to paraffin waxes and other less healthy waxes.
Beeswax is better than soy wax for longer burn time, it's natural scent and air purifying properties.
And soy wax is better for cleaner burning, strong throw or scent and it's more eco friendliness.
For me beeswax is better than soy wax for candles but for some people the soy wax can be better.
Burning beeswax is not toxic as beeswax candles are made from natural substances and burn cleanly.
As a result of the beeswax candles being made from a natural substance and burning cleanly it releases only minimal harmful chemicals into the air unlike paraffin candles.
Some people also believe that beeswax candles when burned can help to purify the air by emitting negative ions which neutralize pollutants.
Beeswax candles are environmentally friendly and safe and non toxic.
Beeswax candles also burn very clean with little smoke when they are trimmed properly as they are not oil based.
The beeswax is a natural product that is made by honeybees.
Paraffin candles can release toxins like benzene and tolune, but beeswax candles don't release these toxins and burn cleanly with minimal smoke.
True beeswax candles also are often free of artificial fragrances, dyes and additives.
And beeswax candle are also biodegradable, unlike paraffin candles.
