A Note from Carolyn, Editor of CandleFind: Pure Integrity is my one of my favorite candle companies! They smell SO authentic, SO strong and are very clean burning from the soy wax they use...no soot at all. I promise if you try their candles, you'll never want to burn another brand again.

I am very impressed with the soy candles so far that I have tried from this company. The scents I've tried have been really authentic and the scent throw is great...very strong. I've been burning their Papaya Passion in my house lately and the scent really fills up one of my large rooms. This scent smells very "islandy." I like to pretend I'm in the Carribean on a beautiful beach sipping some kind of islandy, fresh papaya drink with a pretty umbrella! OH HOW I WISH!!!! Anyway, if you're looking around for a nice soy candle company, I suggest you try a few of their candles to see what you think. I've also tried their Grape scented candle and it was AWESOME! I wrote a review for the grape candle which you can find in my review section. I'm going to be adding more reviews to the site soon of Pure Integrity candles, so be on the lookout for that. My first one will be of Papaya Passion! I know I just reviewed it here a bit, but there will be more info in my "official" review and pretty pictures and stuff. :-)

I've been burning a 10 oz chocolate candle from Pure Integrity. The throw is excellent and it smells like hot chocolate! Yum. This candle burns clean and has no smoke or residue that I have noticed.

After reading Carolyn's review, I wanted to try this company. Let me just say, this is probably the BEST place I have ever bought candles from!! I really have nothing negative to say about my experience at Pure Integrity. Let me just list off all the pros of this company:
1) After a glitch on their website made every candle 14.99, I emailed customer service and was given this price for BOTH of my 26 oz. candles (normally 22.99 each)!!
2) The jars are extremely pretty with classic wooden tops and no labels.
3) Scents are very authentic. I tried Papaya Passion which is fruity and sweet, very yummy. I also bought Honeysuckle which is sweet and floral. Both candles burn clean, evenly, and scent my entire apartment even when they are unlit.
4) Fabulous customer service! When a candle scent I ordered was discontinued, a woman from the company called me at home just to make sure I picked my second favorite scent!
As you can see, I am very impressed with the professionalism and integrity that this company maintains. I will certainly be back again. Thanks!

I ordered my candle on a Tuesday. The candle was shipped to me by Friday wrapped in bubble wrap and surrounded by peanuts!
Jeff Schumacher, one of the owners/creators of Pure Integrity, had included a hand written note in the box. I thought that was a nice, personal touch. In the note he said that he had included 2 free Papaya Passion tealights. I actually ordered a 10 oz. chocolate soy candle, but the note from Jeff continued on to say that my candle had been upgraded for free, so I ended up with a 16 oz!!! Now, I just feel lucky, because I’m sure they don’t do that everyday. Maybe they didn’t want to make another batch of chocolate wax and already had a 16 oz ready and waiting. Who knows? But I was like, “woohoo, bigger candle for lower price!":-)
My review is actually going to be of P.I.'s Papaya Passion tealights, because I have to tell you how long these tealights burned for. I lit my tealights 3 times and kept track of when I lit them and when I extinguished them. The tealights burned for a total of, no joke, 7 hours and 15 minutes...maybe a little longer because I was interrupted several times the first time I tried to keep track.
When I received these tealights, the containers were filled to a little over the brim with wax. I was surprised and impressed with how full they were! In an open area, my two tealights sat on an endtable at each end of my couch. My living room and kitchen are attached and it is very open. Considering the amount of space, the tealights were still fairly strong and consistent. Because they are smaller, I would suggest burning a group of them close together or burning fewer of them in a contained room.
The first time I burned them was in my office on each end of my desk. At first the office door was open, but again, the tealights were still strong and consistent considering the space. Once I closed the door to eliminate distractions...oh my! I felt like I was breathing in a piece of heaven. The scent permeated the entire room.
While these tealights smell tropical, they were also a very relaxing scent for me. I was practicing yoga at the time, so maybe that's why. But the scent isn't overly stimulating, just light and refreshing. While the scent has a fantastic throw, it isn't overbearing in the least. Papaya Passion is very fruity, genuine, and makes you want to eat...the candle?!?!
Thanks to Carolyn, I am now hooked on soy candles. I discovered that I am allergic to paraffin, and so is my husband, but we didn't realize it was the candles we were burning until I read an article of Carolyn's and put two and two together like she did.
Maybe this is silly, or just psychological, but the air actually seems cleaner when I burn my soy candles. I would encourage everyone to try a Pure Integrity candle. They are kind and considerate people with fast shipping and great customer service. Their scents are fantastic and strong. But more importantly, their soy candles are just plain better for your health and the health of those around you. Even if you don't have allergic reactions, you'll still be inhaling cleaner air.
Pure Integrity gives you 20% off your first order and a free 5 oz. candle if you refer three friends to their website. So in addition to getting two free tealights and an upgraded candle, I also received 20% off this order and a free 5 oz. candle in Hot Mulled Cider (you can choose the scent at checkout).
In Summary: Go to Pure Integrity and try your favorite scent now! :-)

I tried a 10 oz candle in pumpkin. The package arrived quickly and included was a little personal note and 2 free tealights of apple strudel.Let me start by saying i love double wicked candles and the fact that the smaller size comes double wicked is a plus for me . I love that they have plain frosted glass jars which many companies have some not so pretty labels on thier candles. The smell of the pumpkin pie was soo real to me . You can actually smell the crust of the pie. Most pumpkin scents ive tried from other companies smell only like spice which is nutmeg and cinnamon and no pumpkin. This so far is the best pumpkin pie ive smelled. When lit , the candle gives off a very strong throw and scented my living room and the hallway . It also looks very pretty with the 2 wicks. It burned clean and even .just be sure when you light it that you let the whole top layer burn before you blow it out. This has been the best soy candle ive tried so far. I will order more scents in the future but im waiting for some specials that hopefully they will have soon. If you are looking for a strong scented soy candle with pretty jars try these ! You wont be disappointed !
