Beeswax candles are unique to other types of waxes in that when burned they actually emit negative ions that help clean the air. Their mild, sweet, honey smell make for a nice natural aroma, so other scents aren't a necessary addition. And they have a nice, natural golden color, which can vary per batch due to the natural state of extraction, which I think gives it charm.
How do they clean they air exactly? Well, the negative ions emitted from the candles neutralize the positive ions in the air, suck them into the flame and drop the particles to the ground. This is why it is often good for allergies, hay fever and asthma.
Another benefit, is that hand rolled beeswax doesn't drip! So, you don't have to worry about it getting messy while they burn.
Paraffin candles are a by product of petroleum, which are believed to release toxins into the air, and soy is often a gmo product that was sprayed with chemicals, which is then in the product of candles made of soy. When burning beeswax candles that are known to be pesticide free, you can know that you are not only helping clean the air you breath, but you are being more earth friendly, while still enjoying candle light.
