Wax Melts

What are wax melts, and how do they work?

Wax melts are scented wax pieces that you can melt in a wax warmer or oil burner to release a pleasant fragrance into your home. They typically come in small cubes or shapes, and you place one or two pieces in the warmer, where they will slowly melt and release their scent. The heat from the burner or warmer helps to release the fragrance oils and scent the room.

How do I use wax melts safely?

To use wax melts safely, you should always follow the manufacturer's instructions and safety guidelines. Generally, you should place the wax melt in a wax warmer or oil burner that is designed for use with wax melts, and make sure the warmer is placed on a level, heat-resistant surface. Keep the warmer away from flammable objects, and never leave it unattended while it's in use. Always keep the wax melts out of reach of children and pets.

How long do wax melts last, and how often should I change them?

The longevity of wax melts varies depending on the brand, fragrance, and size of the melt. Generally, wax melts can last anywhere from a few hours to several days, depending on how often you use the warmer and how much wax you use at one time. You'll know it's time to change the wax melt when the fragrance starts to fade, or when the wax has completely melted. At that point, you can discard the wax and replace it with a fresh melt.

Can I mix different wax melts together to create new scents?

Yes, you can mix different wax melts together to create new scents. Experiment with different combinations to see what works best for you. Just be sure to use wax melts that are compatible with each other and have similar melting temperatures to avoid any issues with the wax.

How do I clean my wax burner?

To clean your wax warmer, allow the wax to cool and harden completely, then turn off the warmer and unplug it from the outlet. You can then remove the hardened wax by gently pressing on one edge of the wax until it pops out of the warmer. If there is any remaining wax residue, you can wipe it out with a paper towel or cloth. Be sure to clean the warmer regularly to avoid buildup of old wax and keep it functioning properly.
