Gel Wax Melts / Jelly Wax Melts

Gel wax melts burn like a candle, just as long as our heart-shaped wax melts, and once cooled, the gel wax simply peels away from your burner. So easy! Shop from a mixture of scents. 

You only need to use a small amount of the tub in your burner, so they are great value for money. Start with a quarter of a tub and add more if needed.

They're simple to use, just place some of the gel wax into your wax warmer and allow the amazing fragrances to fill the room within minutes. Once the wax melt has cooled, you can flip the wax to get the most out of your gel wax!

Please ensure to only use 4-hour unscented tealights and a burner with a height of at least 10cm. 

Each pot contains approximately 36 g, giving you over 40 hours of burn time. With a wide range of different fragranced melts, you're sure to find your favourite to pour the scent into your home.

Gel wax is made from blended mineral oil, which is both vegan and cruelty-free.
