Soy wax is a natural resource made from soybean oil. At Primitive Pansies, we use soy wax in our candles for a cleaner, eco-friendly burn. Unlike paraffin wax, soy wax doesn't produce soot and releases fewer pollutants, making it healthier for indoor air quality. It also burns more slowly and evenly, so your candles last longer and provide extended enjoyment of their scents and look. Using soy wax shows our commitment to offering high-quality, sustainable home-decor products that improve air quality and enhance your living space.

Beeswax is soot-free and environmentally safe, making it an excellent choice for a healthier home environment. Additionally, beeswax acts as a natural air purifier by releasing negative ions when burned, which can help eliminate dust, odors, and other pollutants from the air. Our commitment to quality ensures that every beeswax product we offer not only enhances your home’s decor but also contributes to a cleaner, healthier living space.

While all of our candles do have essential oils in them as part of their scent, they are not pure essential oil candles. We generally prefer to use high-quality fragrance oils infused with essential oils because these oils will produce a stronger scent for you to enjoy while being more economically feasible. Plus, a lot of essential oils have a low flash point, the temperature when the oil will evaporate and vaporize. Low flash points make many of these essential oils not appropriate for candles on their own.

Our fragrance oils are carefully selected to ensure they are phthalate-free, non-toxic, and safe for use in your home. We use only high-quality, eco-friendly fragrance oils in our candles, ensuring they not only smell divine but also maintain the soot-free and air-purifying qualities you expect from us. So, you can relax and enjoy our candles knowing they contribute to a safe, inviting, and aromatic environment.

Our wicks are made using 100% natural cotton. This ensures our candles remain soot-free, burn cleaner, and are environmentally safe, aligning with our commitment to quality. Additionally, by using natural cotton wicks, we help purify the air in your space, providing a healthier and more enjoyable home decor experience.
