Why is it so important to use soy? The answers to this question are endless. First and foremost, soy is a renewable resource, which is one more way to wean us from our dependancy on foreign oil. Yes, paraffin candles are made from oil, which is another reason to use soy. Everytime you light a paraffin candle, you are breathing toxins into your lungs. Most people don't know it, but their candles could be the cause of their chronic bronchitis and dry throat. Our candles not only burn clean, but use cotton core wicks, so you don't have to burn lead in your home, which is a known toxin. Besides the heath reasons, there are many others. Our candles burn waste-free, so you can reuse the jar. Also, our fragrances are so concentrated, that you are buying a candle with fabulous scent that is nearly 100% pure. Our candles burn longer than all other comparable candles on the market. Try us and see.

How are your soaps different than what I buy at the store? Store bought soaps are a big conspiracy between soap and lotion makers. When soap is made, a byproduct of the chemical reaction is glycerin, which is what makes your skin soft. Major brands scoop this glycerin off the top of their soaps and use it in their lotions. This means that the soap you use will dry your skin, and you will need to use lotion to combat it. My soap is made with vegetable oils only, and has no chemicals or preservatives. The soaps you buy in the store are created in the same way they make laundry detergent, and you would never dream of putting laundry soap on your skin. Your skin is your largest organ, and everything you put on it goes into your system. Never use anything on your skin that you could not eat. Our soaps will leave your skin soft, clean and moisturized. No need for lotion.

What is the best way to take care of my skin? There are a few things that you can do that will make a remarkable difference in the clarity and glow of your skin. 1. dry brush. Buy a brush made of vegetable bristles, the scratchier the better. Use this dry before you shower, or any time of the day. Make small circular motions all over your body with the brush. This removes dead skin and helps your pores release all the toxins taken in by your body. It also increases circulation and gives your skin a rosy glow. 2. Get a shower filter. The water from our tap is full of poisons, chlorine, lead and more. A ten minute shower is like drinking 8 glasses of water, and the steam in your shower turns the chlorine to gas, not good. Buy a shower filter, you can get a decent one at Lowe's. This will filter out all the impurities, and your hair will be smooth and soft, your skin will clear up, pores will shrink, and skin conditions will disappear. It is one of the easiest things you can do, and you will see nearly immediate results. 3. Drink lots of pure, filtered water. Our organs and cells need water to function, and yours are more than likely dehydrated. Drink water and see the difference. 4. Take natural vitamin E. Make sure it is natural. It will say 'naturally derived from soy beans'. Chemically synthetic Vitamin E is not as good for you, natural vitamin E has as much as 5X's the antioxidants. 5. Get some sun. Do the research. There are many doctors who feel that sunblock causes cancer, and that the sun is a natural healer. Google it, and you will see for yourself. 10 minutes a day of sun can be a fundamental improvement in your health.
