If you're new to the world of home fragrance, you might be wondering: What exactly is a wax melt? At Scent & Sparkle, we believe scent has the power to transform your spaceāand wax melts are one of the easiest, most beautiful ways to do just that.
šø So, WhatĀ Is a Wax Melt?
A wax melt is a wickless piece of scented wax that slowly melts in a warmer (also known as a wax burner), releasing fragrance into your home. Unlike candles, wax melts are flamelessāmaking them a safer, cleaner, and often more affordable way to enjoy your favourite scents.
š„ How Do You Use a Wax Melt?
Itās super simple! Just follow these steps:
-
Choose a burner ā Use a traditional tealight burner or an electric wax melt warmer.
-
Add your wax ā Snap off a piece (or use a full melt) and place it in the dish.
-
Melt & enjoy ā Light your tealight or turn on your electric burner. The wax will slowly melt and fill your room with beautiful fragrance.
