What wax is the best for homemade aromatherapy candles?
1, soybean wax

It is a wax made by hydrogenation of soybean oil. It is unique in that it can be well blended with plant essential oils, which other waxes can't do. Therefore, if you want to DIY aromatherapy candles at home, soybean wax will be a good choice.

2. Beeswax

Also known as yellow wax and beeswax, it is a fatty substance secreted by bees, which is very suitable for making aromatherapy candles.

3. Plant wax

It is a natural candle material, which can directly contact the skin, but the price is slightly higher, so it is mainly used in some high-end aromatherapy candles.

Besides these natural waxes, paraffin wax can also be used to make scented candles. But it should be noted that paraffin is a petrochemical product. If the purity is not enough, it may produce carcinogens when used, and it is easy to produce black smoke. Therefore, paraffin wax is generally not recommended for DIY aromatherapy candles at home.
