Updated: Jul 4, 2023

Get ready to embark on a delightful journey as we uncover the dazzling benefits of beeswax and coconut oil in candles and wax melts! In this blog post, we'll dive into the waxy wonderland of goodness, exploring how these ingredients not only create a magical ambiance but also bring a host of benefits to your space. So, grab a cup of tea, get comfortable, and let's explore the captivating world of beeswax and coconut oil!



Let me explain why we decided to choose beeswax and coconut oil out of all the waxes on the market for our selection of candles and wax melts. The benefits were way too good to use any other! Here are the benefits of burning beeswax and coconut oil candles in your homes:

Beeswax: Nature's Superstar Sidekick

Beeswax is like the superhero of candle ingredients, and it steals the show for a multitude of reasons:

1) Air Purification Pro: Get ready for a breath of fresh air! When beeswax candles burn, they release negative ions into the air. These ions help to neutralize pollutants, allergens, and even eliminate lingering odors. Think of it as nature's own air purifier, creating a cleaner and healthier environment for you to enjoy.


2) Longer Burn, Greater Joy: Say hello to candles that last longer than your favourite movie marathon! Beeswax candles have a higher melting point than other waxes, resulting in a slower burn. This means you can savor the warm glow and delightful fragrance of your candle for extended periods, enhancing the joy and relaxation it brings.


3) Soothing Sensations: As the soft, warm glow of a beeswax candle fills your space, it has a calming effect on your mind and promotes a sense of relaxation and mindfulness. The subtle honey-like scent adds an extra layer of tranquility, creating a serene atmosphere where you can unwind and find your inner peace.


4) Allergy-Friendly Allies: For those with allergies or sensitivities, beeswax candles are a fantastic choice. They produce minimal to no soot, eliminating the potential for respiratory irritation or triggering allergies. Breathe easy and indulge in the beauty of a clean burn without any worries.


5) Eco-Friendly Elegance: Beeswax is a natural, renewable resource that supports sustainable beekeeping practices. By choosing beeswax candles, you're not only treating yourself but also supporting the well-being of our buzzing friends, the bees. It's a win-win for you and the environment!




Coconut Oil: The Smooth Operator

Coconut oil isn't just for cooking up tasty treats; it also adds a luxurious touch to your candles and wax melts! Here's why it deserves a spot in the spotlight:

1) Sustainable Swag: Coconut oil is a superstar of sustainability. Derived from the tropical goodness of coconuts, it's a renewable resource that keeps Mother Earth happy. So, while you enjoy your candlelit moments, you can feel good about treading lightly on our planet.

2) Clean Burn Connoisseur: Say goodbye to soot party poopers! Coconut oil brings its A-game to the candle party, producing minimal soot and smoke. You can bask in the warm glow of your coconut oil-infused candle without worrying about dirtying up your space or causing respiratory discomfort.

3) Fragrance Fiesta: Coconut oil knows how to party with fragrances! Its molecular magic ensures that the scents in your candles and wax melts blend harmoniously and spread their aromatic wonders throughout your space. It's like a fragrance fiesta that invites your senses to join in the celebration!

4) Moisturizing Moments: Did you know that coconut oil can even moisturize the air? When used in wax melts, it releases a whisper of hydration, leaving a touch of silky smoothness in the atmosphere. It's like giving your home a spa-like treat and your skin an extra dose of pampering. It's a delightful bonus that enhances the overall sensory experience.

5) Tropical Tranquility: The sweet, tropical aroma of coconut oil adds an exotic touch to your candles and wax melts, transporting you to a serene paradise. Close your eyes, breathe in the enchanting fragrance, and let the soothing ambiance whisk you away to a beachside getaway, even if just for a moment.


Beeswax and coconut oil are the dynamic duo that brings a touch of magic to your candles and wax melts. With beeswax's air-purifying prowess, calming properties, and long-lasting beauty, and coconut oil's sustainable charm, clean burn, and fragrance-enhancing abilities, your space will be transformed into a haven of delight and relaxation.
