Our Ingredients

Pure, Clean, and Sustainable Wax

Our candles are made from 100% pure coconut soy wax—a non-toxic, paraffin-free alternative that contains no phthalates, dyes, or preservatives. This cleaner-burning wax produces minimal soot, helping to reduce indoor air pollution and making it a safer choice for those with respiratory sensitivities or allergies.

Unlike paraffin-based waxes, which can release harmful chemicals when burned, coconut soy wax provides a healthier and more eco-friendly alternative. Both coconut and soy are sustainable, requiring less energy to produce than petroleum-based paraffin, and they are biodegradable, reducing environmental impact.

By choosing coconut soy wax, you’re embracing a cleaner, safer, and more sustainable way to enjoy candles—good for you, your pets, and the planet.

  Essential Oil + Fragrance Oil 

While the idea of using 100% essential oils in candles is appealing, they often result in a weak or nonexistent scent when burned. Additionally, some essential oils can release harmful compounds when exposed to heat and may pose risks to pets. Oils such as tea tree, eucalyptus, citrus (lemon and orange), and lavender can be toxic to animals, potentially causing anything from mild gastrointestinal discomfort to more severe health issues.

To ensure both safety and a rich, lasting fragrance, our candles feature a carefully crafted blend of essential oils and premium fragrance oils specifically formulated for candle use. This unique combination enhances scent throw while adhering to strict safety standards. We follow IFRA (International Fragrance Association) guidelines, ensuring that every fragrance we use meets rigorous safety and quality standards. 

Each ingredient undergoes extensive testing to comply with industry regulations, providing peace of mind as you enjoy the warm glow and inviting aroma of our candles. Our thoughtfully blended formula allows for a more enjoyable and worry-free experience for you and your loved ones—including your pets.

Phthalates

Phthalates are chemical compounds commonly used in various consumer products, such as toys, detergents, nail polish, and hair spray, to increase flexibility and durability. However, concerns about their potential health risks have led many to seek safer alternatives. That’s why all Juniper Beach Candles are made with vegan, 100% phthalate-free oils. 

Parabens

Parabens are synthetic preservatives widely used in cosmetics and personal care products to prevent the growth of bacteria and mold. While effective, they have raised concerns regarding potential health effects, prompting many consumers to opt for paraben-free alternatives. At Juniper Beach Candle Co., we prioritize your well-being by ensuring our candles are completely free of parabens—so you can enjoy a pure, safe, and clean aromatic experience without unnecessary additives.
