Candles
Our container candles tell the scent-story of breathtaking natural scenery, and their smaller tinned counterparts let you take that story wherever you go.
With our expansive variety of fragrances, there’s definitely something for you, whether you’re looking to experience the crisp scent of juniper, the clean fragrance of fresh linen, or be transported to a field of wildflowers.
It’s What on the Inside and on the Outside That Counts
Our team at Virgin River Naturals focuses on making quality candles sustainably and responsibly.
Our candles are made from a proprietary blend of soy, beeswax, and coconut wax. The all-natural wax is hand-poured into vessels made from recyclable and reusable materials.
Our container candles are housed in recycled amber-colored glass, while our petite travel tin candles are poured into recycled steel containers with a handy locking lid.
The fragrances in our candles are crafted with a blend of natural essential oils and premium phthalate-free natural fragrance oils.
Whether you choose a large jar candle or a travel tin size to take on the road, you’ll be treating yourself to scents that you can feel good about.
Candles from the Beehive State
Most mass-produced candles on the market contain second-rate ingredients such as paraffin wax that are petroleum-based. These types of candles can pose a challenge to customers as they create soot and can give off harmful pollutants when lit. We like to keep it clean, and our bee friends are giving us a hand.
Did you know Utah is the Beehive State? Symbolizing community, hard work, and unity, and the pioneering spirit of Utah’s settlers, the Beehive is near and dear to Utahns. Virgin River’s clean-burning candles are made with locally sourced Beeswax from Utah.
Beeswax is often said to produce negative ions when burned. Negative ions bond to positively charged particles (such as junk floating in the air). This knocks the particle out of the air and potentially away from your lungs. So, this could potentially then remove dust, odors, and other impurities from the air.
Ions or not, using beeswax supports local beekeepers, who are in turn supporting our bees. They are an important part of our ecosystem, and we depend on them for the food we eat and the flowers we love.
Our container candles wouldn’t be the same without our fuzzy flying friends.
Share Our Scent Memories
The natural beauty and splendor of Utah is our muse for much of our collection of container candles and travel tins. Our candles can be enjoyed in a variety of scents and are inspired by the mountains, desert, rain, flora, as well as scent memories and travel experiences of our team.
As you light one of our scented products, whether a 16 oz container candle with two proud wicks, one of our 8 oz bestsellers, or a tiny but mighty travel tin, you’ll unleash a unique blend of fragrances that float through the air, creating a symphony of sensory bliss.

FAQ
Should I get the 6oz, 8oz, or 16oz candle?
Our 6oz Candles are great for taking on the go. Create your own discovery set with our 6oz candles. They are ideal for little “just because” gifts or to take with you wherever you need a beautiful fragrance.
Our 8oz candles and 16oz work best for larger spaces, and are for those who prefer a more impactful fragrance. The 16oz candle burns for an average of 100+ hours, and has two wicks for extra melting power, and extra twinkles.
What are the benefits of using beeswax?
Beeswax improves the quality of the air in your space by releasing negative ions. These ions neutralize dust, odors, allergens, pollutants and other impurities from the air.
Candles containing beeswax also produce a cleaner and smoother burn, so you can enjoy our candles without soot or irritating fumes.
Are the fragrances in your scented candles safe?
At Virgin River Naturals, our candles are sustainably made without the use of artificial fragrances. We produce high-quality candles with fragrances that are designed to elevate your senses and not overpower them.
We create fragrances with a blend of natural essential oils and premium phthalate-free natural fragrance oils.
