The Buzz on Beeswax


Beeswax: the all natural, non-toxic waxy substance secreted by bees after they consume honey. Bees use this wax to construct their honeycombs, and when cleaned and filtered, it can be used for beautiful and beneficial candles.

 

Cleansing and Purifying the Air

Beeswax candles are the healthiest candles to burn as they contain negative ions.  These ions purify your home's air so it's healthier and safer as air is positively charged.So, when the positive is mixed with negative ions, they become attracted to one another. As a result, the particles are then too heavy to float and drop to the ground.
This is a great way to extract dust, pollen, and dander from your air.  

 

Relaxation Benefits

The best beeswax candles can also give you a sense of calm and relaxation, perfect after a long day.

If you suffer from respiratory problems like asthma, then burn beeswax candles in your room for 30 to 60 minutes before you sleep. Doing so will clear the air and help you drift off easier.  

Ever notice your kitchen can’t shake that fishy smell after cooking? Burn a beeswax candle so they can tackle that tough odor.

Burns Longer

Beeswax candles burn stronger and brighter because they have a high melting point.  

They are also carbon neutral and have a sweet aroma produced by the floral nectar found in the honeycomb.  

Hypoallergenic

People with allergies struggle to stay comfortable in rooms with burning candles.  Some are even allergic to certain scents so you have to be careful when choosing a scented candle.

As beeswax candles are mostly unscented, you won’t have to worry about people with allergies around your candles.
