Why use Beeswax in Candles instead of paraffin

  • Beeswax is a 100% natural fuel created by bees whereas Paraffin is a toxic byproduct of the oil industry.
  • Beeswax candles burn cleaner than any other, Paraffin candles give off many of the same toxic fumes as are found in auto exhaust.
  • Beeswax candles burn longer than others and do not drip, Paraffin candles are relatively short burning and drip excessively.
  • Beeswax candles emit bright light that has the same light spectrum as the sun, Paraffin candles produce a disorganized light spectrum very similar to old-fashioned incandescent bulbs.
  • Beeswax candles emit negative ions that actually clean the air and invigorate the body, Paraffin candles produce toxic petrol-soot that eventually stains all interior surfaces.
  • Beeswax candles are naturally scented by the honey and nectar of flowers packed into the honeycomb within the beehive. Paraffin candles typically contain artificial fragrances and colors which also produce toxins and stains when burned.
  • Beeswax candles come from a renewable resource: beeswax which is being farmed and renewed naturally everyday. Paraffin candles come from a nonrenewable resource: petroleum.

Caution: The melting point of this wax is between 143 deg F to 152 deg F. Overheating this beeswax will impact its scent and color. Please melt beeswax as slowly as possible while stirring gently. Use it as soon as it is melted, otherwise it will cook and render poor-quality results, including a cooked or burnt odor, and an off-white color.

Warning: When melting beeswax, always use a water bath by placing the container of wax - probably a small saucepan - inside a larger pan of water. Never place a pan of wax directly on a hot plate or gas ring. Beeswax can easily become damaged by localized overheating and if it ignites, can burn more ferociously than any chip pan fire. Beeswax does not boil - it just gets hotter and hotter until it ignites.

Works perfectly and melts very quickly
Another great addition for soap and cosmetic makers! We use these beeswax granules in several of our products and love them! They melt very easy!
Very nice beeswax! Uniform beads, easily measured or weighed and melted. Faint honey scent and no other "funky" scent on this beeswax. I bought refined beeswax from another supplier after buying this beeswax and will definitely buy from Soapgoods next time, as the other refined beeswax has an odd smell--whether it be from the wax itself, the processing, or other smells picked up from their warehouse. Soapgoods refined beeswax is a much safer bet!
"I prefer to use granules for my mixtures. They are easy to melt and measure this way. You can change your mind and take out if you nee to. I like it and find it long lasting!
I also like the it does not affect the color if I want something to be natural. I prefer this over the yellow beeswax."
