Simply put they are called wax tarts are candles that are not flammable. They typically come in bars that resemble to chocolate bars and are broken down into cubes, then melt to release the scent within.
Wax Melts Vs Candles
What are the main distinctions between candles and wax melts that smell? The primary distinction is in the way they look and the method you utilize them. Candles can be burned for about two to four hours then blow out. The wax melts, on the other on the other hand, need to be melted gently using the warmer for melting wax or wax burner. They are available in two varieties that are electronic or tea light burning.
The primary benefit of making use of wax melts are that generally they’re more secure to use. Electric burners don’t have open flame, and many tea light bulbs will burn out after about four hours.
How to Utilize Wax Melts
While they’re not as straightforward to make like candles but once you’ve gotten the hang of using wax melts it’s actually pretty simple.
Step 1: Choose the wax melt you want to use.
There’s a wide selection of melts to pick from the variety of types of wax. The majority of wax melts utilize soy or paraffin wax but we only use coconut and rapeseed wax to create an elegant, sustainable look.
Step 2: Place the wax melt into the burner.
Based on the dimensions of your wax melts, you usually just need 1 or 2 tarts of wax. For our melts made of wax, we suggest using only one cube.
Simply place the melt in the bowl of your burner.
Step 3: Switch the burner on.
When you’re using an electrical heater it should have an option to switch it on. If you’re using the warmer for your tea you can simply ignite your tea light and then place it into the hole beneath the dish. Be on the lookout for our own selection of green tea lights on the way!
After you’ve put your wax burner in motion The wax melts slowly and release a lovely scent. A single cube of our melts of wax will last up to 8 hours.
We mentioned that your tea light should turn it out after 4 hours, which means you might require replacing it. Some warmers with electrics come with built-in timers. However, in the event that yours doesn’t you should consider purchasing a timer to ensure you aren’t tempted to forget to switch off the light.
If you choose to just burn the wax melt for about an hour then you can let the wax set and return to the burning process at a later point.
Step 4: Dispose of the wax and wash your burner.
If you’ve burned your wax melt and you’re thinking “why does this scent not last no longer linger?” You could be suffering from the symptoms of nose-blindness or, more likely that it’s time to switch the melt of your wax.
How do you clean out a wax burner? First, ensure that your burner is not hot to the touch.
There are several ways to clear your burner. Many people prefer to heat in the candle for short period of time until it’s in liquid state, then take it out with cotton balls, then discard.
Others turn on the flame for a short time to ensure that the wax softened somewhat, then scoop it out and put it into the bin.
You can also use re-usable popper liners. Put a liner into your burner, pour the melt inside, and just pop the hardened wax out once you’re done to make it less messy.
After you’ve removed the wax, wash the dish with the paper towel or a damp cloth. We don’t recommend using any cleaning products because they can emit harmful gas as the burner is the burner is burning.
So, congratulations! You’re now a professional in wax melting. So, go out and start melting!
