Top 3 Non-Toxic, clean burning Candles
Lighting a warm, cozy candle at the end of the day as been one of our favorite rituals for years! It wasn’t until pregnancy that we realized that not all candles are created equal. Turns out, a lot of our go-to conventional brands contained less-than-natural ingredients that left us breathing in unnecessary toxins.
What better time to clean up your home environment than while nesting? After researching the less than appealing ingredients in the average candle, we tossed all candles made with petroleum-derived paraffin wax, synthetic fragrances, and metal wicks. Instead, we reached for clean-burning, non-toxic candles that are safe for pregnancy and equally as effective at boosting our moods so we could relax with total peace of mind.
Here are our top choices for non-toxic, clean-burning candles that smell amazing AND look stylish perched on your bookshelf.
Nurtured 9 Bloom No. II Fresh Cut Non-Toxic Candle
After scouring the market for the best non-toxic candles safe for pregnancy, we decided to create our own, so we could have more control over the ingredients, scent, and overall aesthetics of the design. BLOOM No. II is a custom blend for Nurtured 9 made specifically with mom-to-be in mind. A chic neutral vessel with subtle nude pink label holds a clean burning coconut wax scented as if you've just clipped the flowers fresh from the garden and warm agave undertones. Topped off with a delicate sprinkle of Peach Moonstone to send all the good vibes. You can take a deep breath and relax knowing that you and baby are enjoying this moment without any unnecessary, harsh chemicals. You can find it in our shop and in our bestselling Cozy Up Mama Pregnancy Bundle!
NURTURED 9 HAVEN NON-TOXIC CANDLE
We have formulated our newest candle, Haven, with a high standard for ingredient safety and a nose for pregnancy-friendly fragrances. The scent, Balinese Breeze, is subtle, and wraps you up like a warm, exotic, beach breeze. The focus on ginger is pleasant for soothing Mom’s nausea as well. The blend is made with coconut wax, has a wooden wick, and is hand poured and clean-burning. With its neutral design, t will no doubt fit with Mama's decor, while she is reminded to take a moment of tranquility and a deep breath to herself. (We love it so much, we’ve included in our pregnancy bundles in The Nurtured 9 Pregnancy Shop, as seen here in the Feel Good Pregnancy Bundle.)
When it comes to designing candles for other Moms, we’re real sticklers – it has to be clean-burning, it must smell heavenly, and it needs to be beautifully made. This is why our original custom-blended non-toxic candle, BLOOM by Nurtured 9 is a collaboration with Near + Native where, Hannah, also a Momma has developed super clean formulas. The rosewater and dewy hibiscus top scent makes this candle both cozy and refreshing and has been specially balanced for sensitive mom-to-be noses. The hand-poured coconut wax is clean-burning and phthalate free. As with our others, the wooden wick crackles as if you're sitting by a fire, for a soothing treat for the ears.
