Question: what is the difference between wax and soy candles?
Answer: Soy wax is made from soybeans, while paraffin wax is made from petroleum (yes, the same petroleum used to make oil and gas). Discovered in 1850, paraffin wax is made by removing the waxy substance from crude oil. ... Not only is soy wax all natural, it's also sustainable since we can grow more soybeans.
