Wax Melts

What are wax melts?

Wax melts are scented pieces of wax designed to be gently warmed in a wax burner, filling your home with beautiful fragrance without using a candle wick.

How do I use wax melts?

Break off a small piece and place it in the dish of your burner. Use an unscented tealight underneath or follow the instructions supplied with your electric burner.

How much wax should I use?

Start with one or two sections of a snap bar, making sure you don’t overfill the burner dish. You can add more next time if you prefer a stronger fragrance.

How long do your wax melts last?

The fragrance time varies depending on the scent, amount of wax used, burner and room size. You can continue reheating the wax until you can no longer smell the fragrance.

What are your wax melts made from?

Our wax melts are lovingly handmade in the UK using 100% soy wax and high-quality fragrance oils. They are vegan-friendly, cruelty-free and CLP compliant

How do I change my wax melt?

Allow the wax to cool and fully set before gently removing it from the burner. Never attempt to remove hot or melted wax.

Are wax melts safe around pets and children?

Wax melts and burners must always be kept out of reach of children and pets. Some fragrance ingredients may not be suitable for every animal, so speak to your vet if you have any concerns.

Can I leave my burner unattended?

No. Never leave a lit tealight burner unattended, and always place it on a stable, heat-resistant surface away from draughts and flammable items.

Why does the colour of my wax melt look different?

As our wax melts are handmade, slight differences in colour and appearance may occur. This does not affect their quality or fragrance.

Why can’t I smell my wax melt anymore?

Your nose can become accustomed to a fragrance after being exposed to it for a while—this is called nose blindness. Try leaving the room for a short time, ventilating the space or changing to a different scent.

Do you offer wax melt samples?

Yes! Our wax melt samples are a lovely way to discover a new favourite fragrance before purchasing a larger snap bar. 

Are your perfume and laundry-inspired scents the genuine products?

No. Our fragrances are simply inspired by familiar scents. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to the original brands or manufacturers.
