Gorgeous scented candles that are perfect for giving or keeping.
Some candles are also made out of beeswax or coconut wax, while others contain a blend.
Ultimately, the right wax depends on you, so Ive included a range of options below.
Burn time: The burn time is how many hours you could light the candle before its spent.
Candle sizes are most often measured in ounces (oz) of wax.
Typically, the more ounces a candle has, the longer the burn time.
Reviewer feedback is also helpful here.
Throw:A candles throwis how far the scent travels and how strong it is.
For that reason, youll need to look to the reviews section.
Container: Candle containers can be all different shapes, sizes, and materials.
Glass, tin, and ceramic are usually your best options.
They have called it delightful, their all-time favorite scent, and the best candle ever.
While the wax is made from paraffin, its cruelty-free and skips the parabens.
Finally, the glass container features a chic pine needle design.
Where it falls short: Its small for the price.
One reviewer wrote: This candle is wonderful.

When the candle is completely burned the container makes a nice Christmas or Winter votive.

Where it falls short: It doesnt have the strongest throw.
Also, the tin container dents easily.
