Why You Should Switch to Non-Toxic Candles

Candles are more than just cozy décor—they’re part of our sacred spaces, self-care routines, and even healing rituals. But not all candles are created equal. At Good Intentions, we handcraft our candles with organic, non-toxic ingredients because we believe what you breathe matters just as much as what you put on your skin.

The Hidden Dangers of Traditional Candles

Many mass-market candles are made with paraffin wax, a petroleum byproduct that releases toxins like benzene and toluene when burned. These chemicals can contribute to indoor air pollution and trigger headaches, allergies, or even hormone disruption over time.

Why Coconut Soy Wax is Better

Our candles use a coconut soy wax blend that is clean-burning, biodegradable, and non-toxic. It holds fragrance well, lasts longer, and is safer for your home, your pets, and the planet.

Benefits of Non-Toxic Candles:

  • Cleaner air quality

  • No soot or toxins

  • Gentle on sensitive noses

  • Better for people with asthma or migraines

  • Supports sustainable living

Choosing clean candles is a small shift that creates a big impact—one breath at a time.
