Val Viola Candles: The Whimsical, Headache-Free Soy Candles You’ll Love

Written By Valerie Kaoud

Why Soy Candles Are a Game-Changer — And What Makes Val Viola Candles Truly Different

Hi, I’m Valerie, the owner of Val Viola Candles, a small-batch candle company nestled in Orange, CT. Today, I want to share a little about why soy candles have become a beloved choice for many—and why Val Viola Candles offers something truly special.

The Magic of Soy Candles

Soy candles are made from 100% soy wax, which is a natural, renewable resource derived from soybeans. Unlike traditional paraffin candles made from petroleum, soy candles burn cleaner and longer, with fewer toxins released into your home. For those of us sensitive to scents or prone to headaches, this can be life-changing.

Here’s why soy candles are so great:

  • Clean and natural: They produce less soot and smoke, making the air around you healthier.

  • Long-lasting: Soy wax has a lower melting point, which means your candle will burn slower and last longer.

  • Better scent experience: Soy wax holds fragrance well, so you get a consistent, subtle aroma—not an overwhelming or artificial smell.

  • Eco-friendly: Soy is biodegradable and renewable, making it a sustainable choice for conscious consumers.

Why Val Viola Candles Is Different — From One Migraine Sufferer to Another

After years of battling migraines triggered by scented products, I found it incredibly frustrating to find candles that didn’t make me feel worse. Even with all the “natural” or “clean” labels, many candles still irritated me and those I care about. So, I decided to create my own solution.

Val Viola Candles was born from a personal mission: to offer whimsical, hand-poured soy candles that are genuinely clean and headache-free. Here’s what sets us apart:

  • 100% Soy Wax: Every candle is made from pure soy wax, free from harmful additives.

  • Non-Toxic and Safe: Our candles are phthalate-free, paraben-free, and completely non-toxic.

  • Eco & Pet-Friendly: We care about the planet and your furry friends — our candles are vegan, cruelty-free, and eco-conscious.

  • Guilt-Free Indulgence: With no harsh chemicals or toxins, you can enjoy the calming ambiance of our candles without worrying about side effects.

  • Handcrafted with Love: Each candle is hand-poured in small batches right here in Orange, CT, ensuring top quality and care.

  • Inspired by Community: After hearing from family and friends who shared similar struggles, I knew this needed to be more than a personal fix—it’s a product designed for everyone who values clean living.
