Wax Melt Safety Guidance

Safety Tips & Information
We always advise to follow these instructions when using wax melts. Please ensure you read the instructions thoroughly to enhance the safety in using the product. This guide does not preclude common sense and logic.


General Wax Melt Safety Recommendations
Check your burner regularly for any cracks or damage.
If using a tea-light burner use only unscented tea-lights with a maximum burn time of 4 hours.
Do not attempt to move the burner whilst it is lit.
*Always* keep out of reach of children and pets and as far as possible from any drafts.
Use on a level, heat resistant surface.
Do not use near to any flammable objects or items.
Never leave an in-use burner unattended.
Only ever use wax melts in an appropriate wax melt burner. Oil burners are not recommended as they are smaller in size.
Never add water to your burner
Never ingest wax melts.
Make sure that the burner is completely dry prior to use.
Burners get very hot! Do not move until it has completely cooled down.
For best results, always close your windows in the room you are burning the wax.

For Tea Light burners
Please do not use more than one of our wax melts at a time in one burner. Using multiple wax melts can result in an overflow of wax from your burner.
Replace the tealight until you can no longer smell the scent of our melt.
Using a tea light burner for our melts will result in approximately 8-12 hours wax melt time.

For electric burners:
Please do not use more than one of our wax melts at a time in one burner. Using multiple wax melts can result in an overflow of wax from your burner. Turn on your burner and leave to melt.
Always follow the specific safety instructions from the manufacturer of your melt warmer.
To achieve the best results, use a burner designed for Soy Wax. Some burners are designed for wax with a lower melting point such as paraffin wax, this is not recommended with our melts as soya wax has a much higher melting point.

Removing your wax
Once the wax is no longer providing a fragrance, wait until the wax fully cools and then gently place pressure on one end of the wax until it pops out.
Alternatively, you can use cotton balls/pads to soak up melted wax and then dispose accordingly. Remember melted wax is very hot so be careful not to spill any melted wax on yourself.
Melted wax is *incredibly* difficult to remove from fabrics / carpets. If you do spill melted wax onto any furnishing, firmly press a paper towel onto the affected area and gently heat (with a hairdryer for example). This will soak up the wax as it melts.
Do not use wipes and/or cleaning chemicals/products to clean the burner.
Do not use metal or sharp objects to clean out wax as this may crack or damage the burner or cause injury.
