Our No Compromise List
At Home Elevations, we don’t believe luxury should come at the cost of your health or the environment. Each candle is carefully crafted to elevate your space, offering a luxurious experience that’s also clean, ethical, and sustainable. Here’s what we don’t use, and why:
NO Paraffin Wax
Why We Avoid It:
- Paraffin is a petroleum-based product, which means when it burns, it releases harmful chemicals like benzene and toluene into the air. These can irritate your respiratory system and trigger headaches, allergies, and other health issues.
- It’s also a non-renewable resource, making it less sustainable for a planet that deserves better.
What We Use Instead:
- Our proprietary blend of 100% pure soy, coconut, and apricot waxes ensures a clean, non-toxic burn. These sustainable ingredients help create a healthier atmosphere in your home while still providing a long-lasting, luxurious scent.
NO Synthetic Fragrances
Why We Avoid It:
- Synthetic fragrances are often loaded with harmful chemicals and phthalates, which are linked to reproductive harm, allergies, and endocrine disruption.
- These artificial fragrances don’t just affect your health—they also don’t provide the pure, natural experience we believe luxury should offer.
What We Use Instead:
- Our candles are scented with the finest, responsibly sourced fragrance oils and pure essential oils from around the globe. These oils are tested for performance and safety, ensuring the highest quality fragrance in every candle.
NO Phthalates
Why We Avoid It:
- Phthalates are chemicals used to make fragrances last longer, but they’re also known endocrine disruptors. Prolonged exposure to phthalates can impact hormone levels, leading to developmental, reproductive, and even cancer risks.
- Their pervasive use in products also contributes to plastic pollution, making them harmful not just for us but for the environment.
What We Use Instead:
- Every Home Elevations candle is completely phthalate-free, offering you a safer, more natural fragrance that doesn’t linger toxic chemicals in your home.
NO Parabens
Why We Avoid It:
- Parabens are preservatives commonly used to extend the shelf life of products, but they mimic estrogen, potentially interfering with your body’s hormonal balance.
- Long-term exposure to parabens has been linked to various health issues, including allergic reactions and higher risk of breast cancer, making it something we refuse to include.
What We Use Instead:
- Our candles are completely paraben-free, ensuring every scent is safe for your skin and health, while preserving the integrity and luxury of the fragrance experience.
NO Animal Testing
Why We Avoid It:
- We believe in treating all living beings with dignity and respect. Using animals for product testing is an unethical practice that we do not support.
- Beyond the cruelty of the process, animal testing is often an outdated, unreliable way of assessing product safety when there are much more effective, humane alternatives.
What We Do Instead:
- Home Elevations is proudly cruelty-free. We do not test our products on animals, nor do we use ingredients tested on animals. Choosing our candles means supporting a brand that values kindness and ethical treatment for all.
NO Carcinogens
Why We Avoid It:
- Some common candle ingredients release carcinogenic substances when burned, increasing the risk of cancer. We believe a candle should never jeopardize your health.
- These harmful substances are often hidden in cheap, low-quality candles, which makes them even more dangerous when unknowingly burned.
What We Do Instead:
- We carefully select ingredients that are free from carcinogens, ensuring you can burn our candles with complete peace of mind. Only the finest, natural ingredients are used to make every Home Elevations candle.
Why It Matters

By taking the time to carefully select safe, natural, and sustainable ingredients, Home Elevations sets a new standard for what luxury means. It’s not just about indulgence—it’s about making sure every part of your experience elevates you and the planet.
