Why choose soy wax candles?

Soy wax is a natural alternative that's respectful of both your health and the planet. It's extracted from soybean oil, a renewable, biodegradable, and plant-based source. These are some of its most notable properties:

Does not emit toxins

Unlike paraffin (a petroleum derivative), soy wax doesn't release toxic substances or black smoke when burned. It's safe for you, your home, and your pets.

Slow and clean combustion

It lasts longer than a conventional candle and leaves no soot residue on the walls or in the air.

Better aroma diffusion

By burning more evenly, the fragrance is released gently and steadily, filling the space without being overpowering.

Biodegradable and easy to clean

If you spill anything, just use hot water and soap to remove it, without any chemical residue.

Sustainable

Being of plant origin, it is a much more environmentally friendly option.

A meaningful choice

Not all candles are created equal. Many are made of paraffin, and while they may seem harmless, when burned they release substances that affect the quality of the air we breathe.

That's why we at MySisterCandles choose soy wax: because we believe every candle you light should bring calm, beauty, and well-being... without compromising your health or the planet.

Lighting a candle is an everyday gesture, but it can also be a conscious act.
