Wayfarer Premium Soy Wax Candles

Natural Soy Wax Candles

Great candles start with great ingredients.

Our premium 100% natural soy wax candles are hand poured using the finest essential and natural fragrance oils available. The wicks are all-cotton wicks, guaranteed to be lead/zinc free. We do not use any additives with our candles including artificial colorings, U.V. inhibitors, stabilizers, or any other non-essential ingredients. Our goal is to present the fragrances as you might encounter them in nature. Pure, fresh, clean, and natural are words that best describe the kind of scent throw to expect from Wayfarer Candles.

Great candles require a great wax. The soy wax we use is:

Longer, cooler and cleaner burning without soot buildup
Made in the USA with domestically grown crops
Renewable sustainable resources requiring plant growth
Biodegradable and free from pesticide and herbicide
Made containing NO Genetically Modified Material
Clean up with soap and hot water eliminating solvents
Manufactured meeting FDA and Kosher standards
Very stable allowing for long shelf life

And of course they’ve got to look great too!

Our paper packaging for the 8 oz. glass tumblers is made from 100% recycled material – 85% post-consumer waste. The print on the package is made using soy ink. We were featured in Package Design magazine’s sustainability issue and one of only 20 products picked for the Going Green display at the Chicago International Home and Houseware show our very first year attending.

Our reusable mesh tin packaging, also for the 8 oz. glass tumblers, enhances the luminary experience by letting the candlelight glow from the thousands of little holes in the tin. Burn it right in the package! The bottom of the container features a non-slip rubber mat that prevents the scratching or scorching of furniture.

Our 4oz. travel tins are perfect for a powder room, small office, or of course, hotel rooms (don’t get caught we’ll deny we ever said that!) They feature a clear lid and are easily cleaned once the candle is burned to make a handy little lidded container to use around the house.

Candle Care 101

Sounds silly right? Find the wick, light it, - done! Not quite. Premium natural soy candles aren’t cheap. Why spend more than necessary? Below are some tips to help you get the most from your candles. Proper burning will help you get more scent throw, reduce any soot from your candles and make your candles last longer.

Burn the candles long enough to allow the wax pool to reach the edge. One hour for every inch of diameter should do it. If you do not allow them to burn all the way to the edge of the container they will begin to tunnel down into the wax instead of consuming all of the wax.

For safety, never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep away from children, pets, and flammable objects. Container and wax will get hot! Do not move while wax is still hot. Keep the wick trimmed to ¼” and keep debris from falling into the candle. Burn candle only on a stable, nonflammable surface. Do not burn candle in the paper tube packaging. Avoid drafts.
