Lavender + Arctic Rose + Cranberry Beeswax Candle

This Lavender, wild rose and cranberry beeswax candle has a beautiful, mild scent that helps relax the mind and body.  This candle provides a perfect ending to a hectic week! It contains a FSC certified wooden wick that offers a campfire like crackle as it burns.

Our candles are handmade in small batches at our “off-the-grid” wilderness facility located in the Northwest Territories. The beeswax we use is sourced from a family run apiary in northern Alberta. This candle is made using pure organic Lavender essential oil, organic lavender flowers, hand foraged wild arctic rose petals and wild cranberries.

Packaged in a lovely frosted glass jar with a bamboo lid. Repurpose this jar for planting herbs!

Burn Time:

30 + hours.  Did you know that beeswax burns for longer than most standard paraffin and soy candles?

Scent:

This candle is infused with pure organic Lavender essential oil as well as botanical extracts from wild arctic roses, wild lingon berry/cranberries, and organic lavender. Pure beeswax candles are free of the toxic chemicals and carcinogens that are released when soy or paraffin candles burn.  Have you opened the lid of a candle at a store and had a overwhelming experience?  We certainly have, that is why we only add a subtle amount of pure essential oils which are not overpowering, even in a smaller room.

Other Candle Wax’s:

The most widely used type of candle wax is Paraffin, which also happens to be the lowest cost wax option.  Paraffin is a byproduct of the oil and gas industry and is refined from crude oil.  As for soy candles, the ethical practices of the industry are often called into play.  Deforestation, soy monocultures involving pesticides and fertilizers, are both contributing negatively to the environment.  The process of extracting the oil from the soy bean is energy intensive, and releases high amounts of VOC’s into the atmosphere.
