Wax Melt Top Tips: Maximising Your Fragrance Experience



If you’re a fan of wax melts, you know how they can transform your space with delightful scents. To help you get the most out of your wax melts, we’ve put together some essential tips and tricks. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or new to the world of wax melts, these tips will ensure you enjoy every melt to its fullest.


1. Choose the Right Warmer

Not all wax warmers are created equal. For the best results, select a warmer that’s appropriate for the size of your wax melts. Electric warmers are great for consistent heat, while tealight warmers provide a more traditional touch. Ensure your warmer is compatible with the type of wax you’re using, whether it’s paraffin, soy, or a blend. (Top Tip! we tend to only sell Soy Wax Melts but if you ever needed something more suitable for you be sure to get in touch.)


2. Keep Your Warmer Clean

Regular maintenance of your wax warmer is crucial. Residual wax can mix with new scents, creating an undesirable aroma.


Top Tip!

To clean, you can either let the wax harden and remove it in chunks and wipe the warmer with a soft cloth or cotton ball dipped in rubbing alcohol to remove any residue.


Or you can heat the wax melt and use a cotton ball or pad to soak up the old wax. A clean warmer ensures that each new melt has a fresh, untainted fragrance.


3. Store Wax Melts Properly

To preserve the potency of your wax melts, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Heat and light can cause the fragrance to deteriorate over time. Keeping your wax melts in an airtight container or sealed bag will help maintain their scent and ensure they’re ready to use when you are.


4. Reuse Until the Scent Fades

One of the great things about wax melts is that they can be reused multiple times. As long as the wax still holds fragrance, you can keep melting it. Once the scent has faded, it’s time to switch to a new piece. This helps you get the most value out of each melt.(Top Tip! We recommend an 8-12 hour burn time for maximum scent strength)


5. Safety First

Always follow safety guidelines when using wax melts. Never leave a melting wax warmer unattended, and keep it out of reach of children and pets. Ensure the warmer is placed on a stable, heat-resistant surface.
