    What are the benefits of Isle of Skye Candle scented candles?

    Isle of Skye Candle uses soy wax in their scented candles, which offers several advantages over paraffin candles. Some of the benefits of soy wax include:

    • Environmentally Friendly: Soy wax is produced from sustainable and renewable resources, such as soybeans. It is biodegradable and contributes less to environmental pollution than paraffin, which is derived from petroleum.
    • Longer Burn Time: Soy wax tends to burn slower than paraffin, resulting in a longer candle life. This allows consumers to enjoy the wonderful scents Isle of Skye Candle offers for longer.
    • Less soot formation: Soy wax generally produces less soot during burning compared to paraffin. This ensures cleaner air in the room and minimizes the need for cleaning after use.
