If You're Still Buying Toxic Candles, It's Time to Swap Them Out!

Conventional candles are typically made from paraffin wax, which is derived from petroleum, coal, or oil shale. When this wax is burned, it can release various harmful compounds and particles into the air such as benzene and toluene. Benzene is a known carcinogen, and exposure to it has been linked to cancer and other health issues.
