Paraffin Ingredients?:

Many commercial candles are made from paraffin, the grayish-black sludge that oozes from the backside of the petroleum refineries. It's bleached, textured with a carcinogenic product called acrolyn, chemically colored and artificially scented.

What about the wick?:

Not something you would want burning inches from you.
Health Canada is urging the Canadian candle industry to stop manufacturing and importing candles with lead and zinc core wicks. They are hazardous to human health - even in small amounts. Some candle makers use lead and zinc cores to make the wicks rigid.

Beeswax Ingredients:

Mother Nature's perfect fuel. Legend has it that bees were offered to the Earth by the Venus, the Roman Goddess of Love, to teach humankind how to use and respect Nature. Beeswax is a remarkable natural substance that cannot be imitated. It is a by-product of honey, which originates in flowers and is made by the youngest honeybees in the colony. The flower nectar is placed in the honeycomb's individual cells and when one cell is full, the bees place a wax cap over the honey for storage.

These natural beeswax candles are hand-crafted from 100% Pure Canadian Beeswax, harvested from the lush wildflower fields bordering the beautiful Rocky Mountains. Alfalfa clover gives our beeswax a country goodness and sweet, rich honey fragrance.

We use a natural cotton wick - no metallic cores

Beeswax Facts:

Beeswax actually cleans the air!

Beeswax candles produce negative ions that attract positive ions. But, positive ions aren't so positive. They're the pollutants such as dust, odors, toxins, pollen, mold, bacteria, and viruses that are floating in the air. Beeswax neutralizes the pollutants and the simply fall to the ground. The dustier your home, the more "black debris" you'll find deposited in the wax around the wick.
 
Burning a beeswax candle in the bedroom for a half hour before sleep helps produce a more restful sleep.
 
Beeswax is a safe, valuable fuel - one of the purest known - and it burns slower and cleaner than paraffin, therefore it's cheaper to use.

Beeswax is virtually smokeless and drip less when used properly (see below).

Beeswax burns with a golden halo and is significantly hotter than paraffin.
 
Please Note: candles listing beeswax as an ingredient may contain as little as 30% beeswax. If it doesn't state on the label "100% pure beeswax" it probably isn't.
 
Beeswax Candle Etiquette, Let there BEE light!
 
Quicker Lighting! Light your candles at an angle at the base of the wick.
Trim the Wick! Keep the wick trimmed at 1/4 inch to prevent wick from smoking and to extend burn time.

Longer Life! Push the sidewalls into the liquid wax pool to raise the level of the wax. Be careful not to over push - it will cause wax leakage and smolder the wick. This prevents "hollowing" of the candle.
 
Dunk it! Instead of blowing out your beeswax candles, extinguish it by "dunking" the wick into the melted wax. Don't forget to flip it back up! This way, you'll have a smokeless wick that is easier to light the next time.
 
Keep Burning! For 3" diameter pillar candles or larger, burn for 2 hours the first time and at least every 3rd or 4th burn to establish a nice "melt pool" and ensure optimal burning time for the life of your candle. Your candle may develop a tendency to burn down the middle and not out to the sides if it is not burned long enough each time.
