Hey there! I'm Adeline, the founder behind Jeans Mostly Wax Co. Here's a little bit about me!

Growing up, my days were filled with Calvin & Hobbes, my beta fish, and a green iPod Nano.

Today, I've still got a penchant for alternative metal, I basically live in jeans (wink), and Cosmo, my black kitty, keeps life interesting. A '90s TV show aficionado, I'm mint(the color)-obsessed and also can't stop talking about coffee.

During weekends, I'm a wedding photographer working side by side with my husband and business partner, Lucas. A couple of days each week, I switch gears and take on the role of barista at a local coffee shop.

This year's lesson? Being unapologetically myself. And yes, you'll totally catch me doing the cliché thing—lounging in the candle aisle at T.J.Maxx, sniffing every scent. But in reality, most scents don't really do it for me! They're either too "candle-ish" or smell really synthetic.

That's why I've made it my mission to create amazing-smelling wax melts that don't smell cheap or artificial. I wanted to give people a product that actually smelled GOOD, and didn't have harmful chemicals in it. And guess what? I think I've nailed it!

Welcome along on my journey!

Soy v. Paraffin: Which Reigns Supreme?

Often, candle or wax melt labels tout their soy content, whether it be a soy blend or made with '100% soy wax.' Subconsciously, you probably assumed soy wax is better, right? No one brags about their candle being 100% paraffin wax, right? Soy wax seems to be synonymous clean burning, non-toxic, natural and eco-friendly; but is it actually?

Let's explore the unvarnished truth.

Neither soy nor paraffin wax is entirely natural or sustainable.

Both are biodegradable and non-toxic.

Surprisingly, soy wax isn't water-soluble, isn't eco-friendly due to pesticide and GMO concerns, and isn't purely natural despite its soybean origins.

Paraffin wax, a byproduct of crude oil refinement, is similarly not natural but does originate from a natural source. Some might argue it's greener given its status as a byproduct.

Both waxes when used alone can cause a candle to soot while burning.

Paraffin wax throws better hot scent, and soy wax does great with scent retention.

Mix these two together and you get: a wax melt that has great cold throw and hot throw!

But, if you vehemently oppose crude oil-derived products, it's important to note that candles labeled as soy may not solely contain 100% soy wax. For a candle to be labeled "Soy Candle," it needs only 52% soy wax. Verifying with the manufacturer becomes crucial to ensure authenticity. And even a 100% soy wax candle likely contains small amounts of additives to make it more resistant to frosting, shrinking and temperature sensitivity.

The bottom line is: paraffin vs soy, neither is inferior. Both have strengths and weaknesses on their own, and they do great blended together! :)
