Set the Mood with Soy Candles

Looking for an eco-friendly way to make your home smell amazing? Soy candles are your best bet. Traditional home fragrances usually just increase your indoor air pollution. Room sprays mist synthetic fragrances and toxic chemicals into the air. And conventional candles aren’t any better–many of them are made from petroleum-derived paraffin and a host of other bad chemicals that get released into the air when they burn. Soy candles on the other hand burn toxin-free. Here are three to try:

Bsab Deep Summer Soy Candle: Can’t wait for beach season to arrive? Bring the scents of summer into your home with this 100% soy candle pictured here. Bsab’s fragrances are formulated from 100% pure essential oils. This candle includes a balancing mix of rosemary, ylang, ylang, lavender, bergamot and Peru balam. Plus, all candles are packaged in eco-friendly recyclable packaging.

Paddywax Fresh Grass Soy Eco Candle: What better way to infuse your home with a fresh seasonal scent than with a fresh grass scented soy candle? A fun option for city dwellers who might miss that fresh cut grass smell, this fragrance is actually a blend of clover blossoms, sage and sweet celery seed. Click here to read more

worked up the nerve to strike up a conversation. They say pheromones are stimulated by
enticing fragrances, so why not indulge in a New Year romance by luring him in
with an all-natural perfume from Ecco Bella? Unlike their mainstream counterparts that are made mostly of

of real essential oils, which are extracted from flowers, fruits, herbs, and
spices. They also do all their testing
on people to ensure their products are gentle and irritant-free. You can rest assured that they won’t cause
skin inflammation or asthma exacerbation which can result from
using many of the designer fragrances. Try
their Lavender eau de Parfum for $19.50 at eccobella.com
