Soy candle
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Soy wax made from the soybean plant has become an alternative to paraffin wax. Soy candles burn clean producing 90-95% less soot than paraffin candles and burn cooler resulting in faster scent dispersion. Soy wax is also water soluble making wax spills easier to clean up by using hot soapy water. Highly scented soy candles can be purchased in many places including online through many sites offering natural alternatives to petroleum based paraffin. It is also used to make rough hands soft.
