Coco Apricot Crème Wax is a luxurious wax that is renewable, vegan, non-toxic, gluten-free, paraben-free, phthalate-free, and FDA-approved. The wax has a smooth, glossy, bright white appearance. It is a natural blend of apricot and coconut wax, along with a minuscule amount of highly refined food-grade paraffin. The food-grade paraffin is added to enhance the performance and adhesion of the wax. This results in an excellent hot & cold throw, meaning when the scent disburses into the room as the candle burns and when it does not. The highly refined food-grade nature of the paraffin still puts the wax in the natural category. Scientific studies have proven paraffin wax to burn just as cleanly as soy, beeswax, or palm. Coco Apricot Crème Wax also provides an evenness of burn and wax consumption when the candle is lit. The wax contains a heat antioxidant to prevent discoloration as well as a UV stabilizer to protect dye colors. We wanted to provide our customers with the best quality candle and felt Coco Apricot Crème Wax was the best choice for our candles.
