9 Non-Toxic, Clean-Burning Candles for Spring

The right candle can raise a room's vibes, and these do just the trick.

We made it through another year, and spring is almost here. Now, it's the perfect time to light a candle or two. With spring cleaning and thinking about the new season, we should think about brightening up our scent environment.

But all candles aren't created equal. Many contain paraffin wax, which can release toxic compounds like acetone, benzene and toluene into the air you breathe. These compounds have the potential to make you sick. That's why more people are turning to nontoxic candles. These candles are free of harmful ingredients, but they still maintain that classic candle experience you love.

Of course, tracking them down requires time and energy, two things you're in short supply of these days. Here are the best nontoxic candle options to get you started.

Here at Parade.com, we're all about sharing products we love with our audience. When you make a purchase on an item seen on this page, we may earn a commission, however all picks are independently chosen unless otherwise mentioned.
