Do you ever walk into someones home and instantly feel relaxed, calm or a sense of nostalgia? That's how powerful fragrance is! Our sense of smell is closely linked to our memories and feelings, making home fragrance a powerful tool for transforming a space.
There are many options to add fragrance to your home, from candles to diffusers but a popular and affordable choice are wax melts. In this Ultimate wax melts guide, Ill walk you through everything you need to know about wax melts, from what they are, how to use them and tips for finding your perfect home fragrance.
What exactly are wax melts?
Wax melts are fragranced infused shapes or bars of wax that are heated in a wax warmer to release the fragrance into the air. Unlike candles, wax melts don't contain a wick or require a naked flame to give off the fragrance. Wax melts are available in an extensive range of scents and release the fragrance more quickly than a candle.
Wax melts are made from various waxes including paraffin wax, soy wax and beeswax but here at Kind Melts, we use a luxurious yet sustainable blend of rapeseed and coconut wax. We have found this wax to offer the best of both worlds.
Rapeseed wax is a natural and renewable wax obtained from rapeseed. It's clean burning and releases the fragrance slowly. Coconut wax is derived from coconuts, its a more luxurious wax and has a strong scent throw.
This wax blend makes our wax melts vegan friendly and eco friendly due to both waxes being more sustainable than other natural waxes and without the addition of beeswax.
This fabulous blend gives a wax melt experience that is both kinder to nature, and kinder to you!
A simple guide to using wax melts.
Wax melts are extremely easy to use!
Choose your wax warmer. There are two main types of wax warmers, electric and tea light candle wax warmers. (They're called warmers due to them warming the wax rather than burning.) You can find out the pro's and con's of electric and tea light candle warmers here.
Adding your wax melt. Wax melts come in various shapes and sizes, you only need to use a small shape or section of wax bar. Add the wax melt to the dish of your wax warmer and then switch on your warmer/ light the candle beneath the warmer depending on the type of warmer you are using.
The aromas are released. As the wax melts the fragrance or essential oils are warmed and release into the air. ( You can turn off your warmer once you feel your space is adequately scented to make your wax melt last longer)
Changing your wax melts. Wax melts don't melt away like candles, once the scent has faded you remove from the wax warmer and discard into the general rubbish. To remove the wax melt we find the best way is to slightly melt the wax in the wax warmer and then slide it out. If your wax melt still has scent remaining you can store it in the packaging and reuse it at another time.
Remember to check your wax warmer for any cracks or damage before use, keep your wax warmer on a level, heat proof surface, away from children and pets.
Wax melts care.
Cleaning your wax warmer: Simply remove the wax melt and wipe the dish with a paper towel or damp cloth. Allow to dry fully before using again.
Storing your wax melts: Store your wax melts in their original packaging or an airtight container in a cool, dry place. This will help keep them at their best for longer.
