I’m an advocate for natural candles. Period. Beeswax candles produce a lovely, natural scent that many people love. It also gives off a warmer, yellowish light that is similar to sunshine. Beeswax, however, is not a feasible choice for vegans as it does of course come from bees.  Soy candles are vegan-friendly. I also find them extremely versatile in the ways I can customize the scent. Soy candles produce a whiter light, similar to fluorescent light. Soy candles are also the more affordable option as beeswax tends to be a little more pricey. The verdict: both are great options. It is just a matter of preference!
