Collection: Wax Melts

Wax melts are flameless, scented wax pieces designed to release fragrance when heated in a wax warmer or burner. Unlike traditional candles, wax melts don’t have a wick and don’t burn directly. Instead, they melt gradually, filling your space with delightful and long-lasting aromas.

Made from materials like soy wax or paraffin, wax melts are an eco-friendly and customisable alternative to candles. They are also safer, as they don’t require an open flame, making them a popular choice for households with children or pets.

Available in various shapes, sizes, and fragrances, wax melts are perfect for creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere tailored to your preferences.

Step 1: Choose a Wax Warmer or Burner
To use wax melts, you'll need a wax warmer or burner. These devices come in electric or tea light versions. Electric warmers are powered by a plug or batteries, while tea light burners use a small candle for heat. Choose one that suits your space and preference.

Step 2: Add a Wax Melt
Take a piece of your wax melt and place it on the dish or tray of the warmer. Most wax melts are designed to be broken into smaller pieces, so you can control the strength of the fragrance by using more or less wax.

Step 3: Heat the Wax Melt
Turn on your electric warmer or light the tea light in your burner. As the wax melts, it will release a wonderful fragrance that fills the room. The scent will last until the wax cools and hardens again.

Step 4: Replace the Wax
Once the wax has lost its scent, allow it to cool and harden. Remove the used wax by gently scooping it out or warming it slightly to loosen. Then, replace it with a new wax melt to enjoy a fresh fragrance.

Safety Tips
Always use your wax warmer or burner on a heat-resistant surface. Keep it away from flammable objects, and never leave it unattended while in use. If using a tea light burner, ensure the candle is properly extinguished after use.

Wax melts are an easy and safe way to enjoy delightful fragrances in your home, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere with minimal effort!

Duration of Fragrance Release
The longevity of wax melts depends on their size, quality, and the type of wax used. On average, a single wax melt can provide 6 to 12 hours of fragrance. Larger melts or highly scented ones may last even longer, offering extended enjoyment of your favorite aromas.

Factors That Affect Longevity
Several factors influence how long a wax melt lasts. These include:

• Type of Wax: Soy wax melts often last longer due to their slower melting rate compared to paraffin wax.
• Fragrance Load: Wax melts with a higher fragrance concentration will release scent for a longer period.
• Warmer Settings: The heat level of your wax warmer can affect how quickly the fragrance is released. Lower heat settings typically allow for a more gradual scent release.

When to Replace Wax Melts
You’ll know it’s time to replace your wax melts when they stop releasing a noticeable scent. While the wax itself doesn’t evaporate, the fragrance oils do, leaving unscented wax behind. Simply remove the old wax and replace it with a new melt to enjoy fresh aromas.

Maximizing Wax Melt Longevity
To make your wax melts last longer, use your warmer for shorter intervals and turn it off once the desired scent fills your space. This helps preserve the fragrance for future use. Storing wax melts in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight also helps maintain their scent potency.
