About
Everyone loves to burn candles either for the ambience or the fragrances. Teri could do neither, every time she would burn a candle she would have an allergic reaction and her chest and throat would become sore. She could only buy candles for show, you know the ones in the pretty candle holders. Her sister told her about a candle she was burning made from soybean wax and how she did not have an allergic reaction.
Teri decided what better way to find out then to do it herself. She began by ordering the 100% soybean wax and a few body safe fragrance oils. When she made and burned her first candle, the results were amazing! She had no reaction as in her past experiences with candles.
She wanted to tell everyone that it was the wax not the fragrances used in the candles that caused the allergic reaction. What was the difference in the wax? Most commercially produced candles are made with paraffin, which is a petroleum by-product. Soybean wax is from soybeans, a natural, organic product. So then Teri had to try pure essential oils with this soy bean wax and fell in love with these clean and light scented candles. Now she knows why they say essential oils are aroma-therapy.
The only way to share this with everyone was to make her own candles and to make them clean, simple and useful, so she started her own business, "Blue Flower Soy Candles".
