What is a wax melt?

Wax melts are scented pieces of wax, much like a candle but without the wick. We have an unbeatable range of scents and fragrances ranging from perfume to laundry.

Are wax melts better than candles?

We say YES! Wax melts are much better than candles for a number of reasons. For a £20 high street candle, you get 1 scent and the candle is likely to produce black soot and other unwanted nasties. For the same money you can get over 6 different scents with a total melt time of up to 540 hours!

How long do wax melts last?

Two cubes of wax melts can last up to 18 hours of scent! Wax melts are better than candles in terms of value for money.

How often should I change the wax in my wax warmer?

What wax melter should I use?

We recommend using a tea light burner for optimal scent throw but our wax melts can also be used in electric wax burners and plug in warmers.

What is scent throw?

Scent throw is a term used to describe how strong the fragrance is and how quickly the scent travels. A good was melt will fill the room with strong fragrance within 10 minutes of melting.

Do wax melts evaporate?

Unlike candles, wax melts do not come into contact with a naked flame so do not evaporate. Simply burn the same piece of wax until you no longer can smell the scent and dispose of the residual wax.

How do you remove wax melts?

We have 2 favourite ways of removing wax melts from a wax burner. Firstly, we love to use cotton wool or cotton pads to soak up the molten wax and wipe the dish clean. Secondly, you can wait for the wax to set hard and run the dish under a warm tap so the wax pops out with ease. Make sure you completely dry your wax burner dish before using again.

How do you clean a wax warmer dish?

With both of our methods above you will be able to remove your wax with a clean dish every time.

Do you use biodegradable glitter in your wax melts?

Yes we do!

Can I reuse wax melts?

Once the scent throw has gone, we recommend switching your wax melt for a fresh one. After all, two cubes cost just 60p and last up to 18 hours making our wax melts much better than candle alternatives.

How to use: Each wax melt is shaped like a bar . Break off one or two pieces from your wax melt, add a tea light underneath, and light the tealight wick. Keep using new tealights until you can no longer smell the scent.

The intensity of the fragrance will depend on your room size, the temperature of the room and the amount of wax used. For best results, always close your windows in the room you are burning the wax. Once the wax is spent, use cotton balls/pads to soak up melted/molten wax and then dispose of it accordingly. Do not use wipes and/or cleaning chemicals/products to clean the burner. Do not use metal or sharp objects to clean out wax as this may crack or damage the burner or cause injury. Please check the packaging for allergen advice. Keep away from children.
