Beeswax aromatherapy pillar candle by Bluecorn Naturals - review by freshbananas

I love beeswax candles, lip gloss, lotion and just about anything else you can make it out of. I would probably enslave the world's bees to produce my wordily goods if that was legal and I had the means to do so. So naturally I was very interested in the beeswax aromatherapy pillar candle, and I was not disappointed in the product either.

When came in the mail it was minimally packaged. Just neatly wrapped in the discreet priority mail box, wrapped in brown packing paper and nothing else. I personally like it because it means less to throw away. (also the packing is recyclable!) There is an instruction sticker on the bottom and a pink Bluecorn Naturals stick on the front. I removed both because its a very attractive candle all on its own. It is a two by three inch pillar candle. It doesn't come with a holder or glass, but I feel that would away from the natural aesthetics of the candle. It has a lovely cantaloupe color and feels a little waxy to touch. The smell didn't rub off on my hands.

The color was much deeper than peach but Bluecorn naturals uses both filtered and unfiltered beeswax. Most commercial and mass producers of beeswax candles use highly filtered wax for a consistent product. When you do this you lose some of the natural beauty and the gentle honey scent of the beeswax. I think Bluecorn naturals has found a good middle ground for keeping a consistent color and providing a richly unique candle.

I received the palmarosa, Ylan Ylang and patchouli scent and there wasn't a distinct scent of any, more a sharp blend of the scents. The scent was heady, floral and mild but demanding. You can smell it whenever its near and fills the room after a good ten minute burn. It is not overwhelming and I really like that! I like the smell and it doesn't bother mine or my dear's allergies. He is very sensitive and requires full time air filters to be in the house. I normally can not bring in scented products (this make finding cleaning products difficult) into the house, especially candles. But this candle doesn't bother him at all.
Like all beeswax candles, this candle requires care to keep nice. For the price and care you are getting a fantastic candle. Beeswax unlike paraffin wax will help clean your air, instead of pollute it. It does this by releasing negative ions in the air. This will also last you much longer than paraffin candles as beeswax burns much slower.


Care for this candle


You will need to trim the wick, to keep it burning brightly. The wick is made of cotton and it much tickler than paraffin candle wicks and doesn't have a lead or metal core!


This candle should be burned a minimum of two hours at a time to keep it from “digging a hole” in the wax.


Because of its cotton wick, this candle burns very brightly and makes for a warm and comfortable glow. I positively love this candle and hope to see more beeswax on Edens Fantasy

Safety disclaimer. Use candle common sense! Do not burn unattended. Do not burn near flammable shit like your curtains, face or gasoline soaked papers. Don't play with matches kids! Lastly please don't try to eat this. I don't think it would kill you but I don't think it is good for you either.

When a received my candle it was a little "dusty". I do not assume this is because of mis-care, I assume that it was dusty because it was not kept in sterile warehouse. I found it nice that the candle was uniquely handled with love.

I just love this product! I still haven't burned this down. I will be ordering much more of these. They burn much slower than typical wax candles and keep a natural beauty.
