What We Don't Use
Clean candle shoppers compare exclusion lists as much as scent names. This page states the materials we leave out across the core candle line and fragrance catalog.
Materials we leave out where applicable
- Paraffin wax in our soy candle and soy wax melt lines
- Phthalates in the fragrance standard we use for candles, melts, and core fragrance products
- Lead-core wicks in our candle line
Why this page exists
Most brands tell you what a product smells like. Fewer brands tell you what they chose not to put in it. We think both matter. A direct exclusion list helps you compare products fast and cuts down the guesswork that slows down a first order.
What this page does not claim
This page is not a medical statement. It is a material standard. We use it so buyers can compare wax, wick, and fragrance choices with fewer blind spots.
