Why paraben and phthalate free candles matter?
As a chiropractor and mother, I am committed to providing quality healthcare to my patients and always prioritize safe products in my home. You and your loved ones deserve the same. Our Salt + Sabbath collection continues to honor our dedication to supporting your healthy home with clean and safe candles.
MOST candles purchased at major retailers use low-quality, fast-burning wax and sometimes harmful ingredients (to provide a low-cost product). They do smell nice, but they contain harmful substances you don’t want around your loved ones and in your home.
Salt + Sabbath candles are a clean burning, natural vegan blend of organic hemp, soy, + coconut wax. Our hemp candles have the slowest burning time, so you’re getting sometimes 2x+ the burn time. They are free of gluten, toxins, parabens and phthalates and come from renewable sources. Fragrances come from clean, phthalate-free fragrance oils created using fine fragrance oils + pure essential oils.
So what’s the big deal?
What are Parabens?
Parabens are synthetic chemicals widely used as preservatives in various personal care products and, MOST candles. Common parabens include methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, and butylparaben. They are added to extend a product's shelf life and prevent microbial growth.
The Risks of Parabens:
Endocrine Disruption: Parabens can mimic the hormone estrogen in the body, potentially leading to hormonal imbalances.
Allergic Reactions: Some individuals may experience skin irritations or allergies due to paraben exposure.
Potential Carcinogenicity: While research is ongoing, some studies suggest a link between parabens and certain cancers.
