Our soy candles are made from 100% kosher, FDA certified soy oil. They are not a soy wax, nor do we blend with paraffin like many "soy" candles on the market today. Our soy is processed with Vitamin E, fatty acids and lecithin, making the oil an excellent emollient and protectant for the skin along with other health benefits. The soy will burn cool and the melt pool can be used for dry cracked heels and elbows, as a skin emollient or lotion, and is excellent for sunburns. The candle has over 40 hours of burn time and will have the wonderful aroma of Wild Pomegranate!
