Soy Wax Candle

Bookend Candle Co. is a woman-owned small business in Ypsilanti. Erin creates beautiful, realistically scented candles made from 100% soy wax and phthalate-free fragrances. With burn times up to 55 hours.

The soy wax Bookend uses is produced from soybeans grown in the US. Some of the benefits of soy wax are that it burns cleaner and slower than other waxes. Soy is a renewable and sustainable resource that is carbon neutral and eco-friendly.  And as a bonus, soy wax is naturally vegan. 

The wicks are made up of braided cotton with thin paper threads to provide structure without the need of a core. They are zinc and lead free.

All of their fragrance oils are phthalate-free and do not require a prop 65 warning. They choose to use fragrance oils over essential oils due to better scent throw, cost, and overall performance.
