Why we love Wax Melts!

Customise to Suit your Mood!

One advantage of wax melts is that they can be easily switched for different scents without the need to replace an entire candle. They come in a wide variety of scents, allowing individuals to choose fragrances that suit their preferences and mood. Flicker & Scent have a wide choice of fragrances available, and offer the choice of melts infused with either fragrance oils or natural essential oils. You are also in control of the strength of aroma created, whether you prefer a subtle less overpowering scent or more potent, try one melt first then if you prefer, add another

Affordable & Long Lasting Fragrance

Wax melts are the most economical way of adding fragrance to your space, compared to candles. Working out at approximately £1 or less per melt you don’t need to spend a lot to try different fragrances. The wax melts can be used multiple times until the fragrance has burnt off. Each melt has an approximate burn time of approx. 8 hours so a bag of 5 will give round about 40 hours total burn time.

Safety

Some people prefer wax melts because they eliminate the need for an open flame (if using an electric burner), making them a safer option in certain situations for example if you have pets or young children. Remember, if using a tea light burner, you can only use a four hour tealight, as any stroger flame can cause the wax to overheat or the burner to crack.

Eco Friendly

Depending where you purchase the melts from. they do tend to be more eco friendly and produce less waste. There is no need for containers as with candles and the wax melt burners can last for many years. Here at Flicker & Scent we package the melts in glassine bags that are biodegradable and planet friendly. We also use responsibly sourced soy wax which a sustainable source, so kinder to the environment than paraffin wax.

Aesthetics

There are a wide variety of wax melt burners available to suit all colours schemes and decors. So as well as making your home smell beautiful, they will look great too. If you are looking for a special gift, the Wax Melt Starter Kits available at Flicker & Scent come in a presentation box and contain wax burners, melts and tea lights along with full instructions, so make beautiful inpresents for those new to wax melts!

How to use Wax Melts

Wax melts are quick and simple to use. Pop one or two wax melts in the top of your burner, light an unscented 4 hour tealight and place in the bottom of the burner.

Within 15 minutes the scent will fill your space!

The wax will solidify once the tealight is extinguished, but you can burn the melts a few times (approx. 8 hours of fragrance per melt)

Once the fragrance has depleted, remove the solid wax by either pressing firmly and sliding the wax disc out. Alternatively light the tealight for a few seconds, extinguish, then slip the softened wax out.
