Proper storage is crucial for maintaining the strength and quality of your wax melts. Always keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. This helps preserve the integrity of the fragrance and prevents the wax from melting prematurely.

2. Usage

To ensure you get the best out of your wax melts:

• Break the wax melt into smaller pieces to control the intensity of the scent.
• Use a suitable wax warmer - electric or tealight - at the recommended temperature for an optimal release of fragrance.
• Do not overfill the warmer to prevent wax spills.

3. Cleaning Your Wax Warmer

Residual wax can affect the scent performance of new melts. To clean your wax warmer:

• Allow the wax to cool before removing it with gentle pressure or warm the wax slightly until it softens for easy removal.
• Wipe out any residue with a soft cloth.

4. Fragrance Refreshing

Over time, you may notice a decrease in fragrance strength. To refresh the scent:

• Swap out old wax for new fragrances. Try the delightful Rose & Rhubarb Wax Melts - 16 Pack for a refreshing twist.

FAQs

What are scented wax melts?
Scented wax melts are small, highly fragrant pieces of wax that can be melted in a wax warmer to release their aroma into the air. Unlike traditional candles, they do not have a wick and are designed to be used repeatedly until the scent dissipates.

How do I use scented wax melts?
To use scented wax melts, simply place one or two pieces in the bowl of a wax warmer, turn on the heat source, and allow the melting process to begin. Enjoy the fragrance as it fills your space. When the scent fades, allow the wax to cool and harden before removing it.

How should I store my wax melts?
It’s best to store wax melts in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and heat sources. Keep them in an airtight container or bag to protect the fragrance and prevent them from drying out.

How long do scented wax melts last?
The longevity of scented wax melts depends on several factors, including the type of wax, fragrance concentration, and usage conditions. Generally, a single melt can last between 8 to 12 hours of fragrance, but this can vary.

Can I mix different scents of wax melts?
Yes, many people enjoy blending different scents to create a unique fragrance experience. Experimenting with combinations can lead to delightful aromas that suit your personal preferences.

How can I clean my wax warmer?
To clean your wax warmer, let the used wax cool and harden, then simply pop it out of the warmer. For residue, you can wipe the bowl with a paper towel and use warm, soapy water or a cloth dipped in rubbing alcohol if necessary.

Is it safe to leave wax melts on unattended?
While many wax warmers have safety features, it is generally advisable not to leave them unattended for extended periods. Always follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for safe operation.

Can wax melts be reused?
Once wax melts lose their scent, it’s best to dispose of them rather than reuse them. However, some users prefer to mix used melts with fresh ones for a milder scent experience, so feel free to experiment.

What should I do if I'm not getting enough scent from my wax melts?
If the fragrance isn't strong enough, try using fewer bits of wax melt, adjust the heat level of your warmer, or consider switching to a different scent that may be more potent. Additionally, fresh wax melts generally provide a more intense aroma than ones that have been used multiple times.
