Scented candles can be a soothing and comforting addition to any home. If you’re someone who loves to use candles in your home, it’s important to be aware of what type of wax is used in candles since this affects their scent, burn time and quality.

It is estimated that paraffin wax comprise 70% of all global candle production, but did you know it can also be carcinogenic?

A much safer and healthier alternative is soy wax. Oatley Bay Candles comprises Brooke’s unique special blend of 100% natural ecosoy and coconut wax. That way, you can have beautifully scented candles lighting up your home without any health risks.

Soy candles are a luxurious way to light up your space, as they burn nice and clean with no sooty residue.

They not only burn beautifully but are also vegan and environmentally friendly. Soy candles contain no paraffin, petrochemicals, herbicides, or pesticides—making them biodegradable and sustainable. Plus, the wicks of soy candles are made out of sustainable cotton.

Besides its alluring smell, you can use these candles as massage oils. The wax has a cooler melting point than other candle materials and turns into oil when liquified. Just let it pool to the edge of the candle, extinguish the flame, check the temperature, and gently pour it into your skin for a soothing massage.

Our soy candles are made even safer with the addition of coconut wax. Not only does it help to withstand higher temperatures, but its natural properties can also nourish and moisturize your skin. What’s even better is that these massage candles come with a hefty price tag, but ours are very affordable.
