Your soy candle is different...here's how:

SOY	PARAFFIN
1 ounce of wax burns 8-10 hours	1 ounce of wax burns 5-6 hours
Cleans up with soap and water	Clogs drains, use solvents or freeze
Minimal to no smoke or soot when burned properly	Leaves soot around the neck of containers, extended use may darken ceilings
No harmful emissions or toxins	Imported candles may cause lead poisoning and release excessive particulates
Made in the USA	Often imported to minimize cost
Supports American farmers	Petroleum based
Excellent scent release cold or hot	Average scent throw

Please note that soy wax candles have a unique appearance; the tops may appear rough or flaky around the wick, and some amount of frosting on the sides is completely normal.

Burning Instructions: Allow wax to melt completely to the edge of the container when first burning your candle to prevent craters. Burn candles on a heat-proof surface away from children, pets, drafts and flammable items. Burn your candle at least one hour for every inch in diameter, but do not burn for more than 4 hours at a time. Glass will become hot, so do not handle the candle while it is burning or while the wax is still melted. Trim the wick if it is longer than 1/2" or if the flame is large. Stop burning candle when there is 1/2" of wax left in the container. Do not allow flame to touch the side of the container! This can cause the glass to crack or shatter.
