Let's get started !
What are “Wax-Melts” ?
Wax melts are often designed in beautiful shapes, colors and sizes. These small, often decorative, wax pieces release fragrance when melted using a wax warmer filling a room with a pleasant scent. Wax melts are an alternative to traditional candles and are becoming increasingly popular for their versatility and ease of use. Wax melts offer a flame-free option for those who want to enjoy scents in their living spaces without the use of an open flame. They come in a wide variety of scents, allowing users to easily change or combine fragrances to suit their preferences.
Renowned for their popularity, user-friendly nature, and cost-effectiveness, wax melts stand out as a delightful method to infuse your living space with a captivating fragrance.
How to use “Wax-Melts”?
Using wax melts is a simple and enjoyable process. Here's a step-by-step guide:
Choose Your Wax Melter:
Select an electric wax warmer or a tea light warmer. Electric warmers provide a flame-free option, while tea light warmers use a candle to generate heat.
Select Your Wax Melts:
Pick your favorite wax melts in terms of fragrance and style. Consider mixing scents for a personalized aroma.
Place Wax Melts in the Warmer:
Put one or more wax melt cubes into the dish or tray of your wax warmer. Be mindful not to overfill, as a little goes a long way.
Enjoy the Aroma:
As the wax melts, it releases the fragrance into the room. Relish the delightful aroma as it fills your living space.
Turn Off and Clean:
Once the desired fragrance is achieved, turn off the warmer. Let the wax cool and solidify before cleaning the dish for a fresh start.
Reuse or Change Scents:
Wax melts are reusable until the fragrance diminishes. Pop out the solidified wax, wipe the dish, and switch to a new scent for a change.
Precautions to Take When Using Wax Melts:
- Never leave a wax warmer unattended while it's in use. Keep an eye on it to prevent any potential issues.
- Place the wax warmer in a location where it is out of reach of children and pets to prevent accidental burns or spills.
- Ensure proper ventilation in the room where you're using wax melts to prevent the accumulation of scented vapors.
- Allowing the wax to cool and solidify before removal ensures a safer and cleaner process.
- When disposing of used wax, never pour it down the drain to prevent clogs.
Why is soy wax-melts preferred over paraffin wax-melts?
Soy wax melts are often considered a superior choice to paraffin wax melts for several compelling reasons. Soy wax is derived from soybeans, making it a renewable and sustainable resource. In contrast, paraffin wax is a byproduct of petroleum. Soy wax is known for its cleaner burn, producing minimal to no soot which ensures a cleaner and healthier air quality. Soy wax melts also tend to last longer, providing a slower and more extended fragrance release.
