Is candle wax harmful for the skin?

Candle wax is generally not harmful to the skin, especially if it is made from natural ingredients like beeswax or soy wax. However, some individuals may experience irritation or allergic reactions to certain additives or fragrances in commercial candle wax. It's always best to do a patch test before using any wax on the skin. If irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.
