Candles add warmth, ambiance, and a sense of calm to our lives. However, many candles on the market today — particularly those from big-box stores — are made without much regard for the safety and purity of their ingredients. If you’re concerned about the quality of what you burn in your home, you’ll appreciate how Akouo Candles stand apart with a commitment to sustainability and conscious craftsmanship.
What Makes Akouo Candles Different
1. 100% Coconut Wax
Coconut wax is a cleaner, more sustainable alternative to traditional paraffin or soy-based candles. It burns longer, produces minimal soot, and offers a smooth, beautiful finish.
2. Clean Fragrances
Akouo fragrances are free from harmful chemicals including:
Phthalates
Parabens
Carcinogens
Mutagens
Reproductive toxins
Organ toxins
Acute toxins
This ensures a safer environment for everyone, especially pregnant individuals, postpartum mothers, children, pets, and anyone with sensitive nasal passages.
3. Lower Fragrance Load for Safer Breathing
Unlike many candles that use a 10% or higher fragrance load, Akouo candles use just 8% fragrance. This thoughtful choice creates a balanced scent throw without overwhelming the senses, making it ideal for those sensitive to strong scents.
4. Eco-Friendly Wooden Wicks
The wooden wicks in Akouo candles are FSC Certified, meaning they are sustainably sourced. Each wick is handcrafted and made in the USA, providing a clean, even burn with a subtle crackling sound for added ambiance.
A Labor of Love and Research
Shelby Marie, the founder and creative force behind Akouo Candles, spent over a year researching and testing to perfect a formula that delivers a clean-burning, sustainable, and safe candle experience.
"My eyes would burn, and my nasal passages were so sensitive to other candles. I love candles, and I knew I wasn’t the only one suffering from this issue. So, I took it upon myself to do the research and provide a solution for others." — Shelby Marie, Founder
