Have you ever thought about how wax melts became so well-known? We’ll tell you a few reasons that make them popular. so great.
First of all, what are wax melts? And what is their origin?
Wax melts are completely wick-less fragrant pieces of wax that are heated up in a warm. The warmer warms and melts the solid wax. As the wax melts, it fills up the area with scent. Melts are also referred to as wax tarts, or wax cubes.
The idea of melting wax came from candle makers looking for something to do with the leftover wax they left after making candles. Pretty cool, right?
So why are wax melts all the rage?
1. Wax Melts Are Flame-Free
Decorated candles are lovely however, the flame is a threat to the possibility of catching fire to something else accidentally. While candles require flame but wax melts do not have wicks, and do not require a flame. Most wax melts are heated using an electric warmer that has a tiny 15-watt light bulb that sits at the bottom of the warmer. The light bulb provides just enough heat to melt the melts of wax, tarts, or cubes, and release the scent in as little as 5 minutes!
2. Wax Melts Are simple and easy to use.
The wax melts and warmers are better suited for be used in workplaces or apartments, among other places in which traditional candles with flames could cause difficulty. Wax melting is also preferred to parents concerned of their children around flames. Melts are convenient, because there is no requirement for matches or a lighter, and the melts themselves are compact and easy to transport.
3. The benefits of melting are better for the Environment
Did you consider that glass is one of the long-lasting materials made by humans? It can take up to 1 million years glass to degrade. Up to 28 billion glass containers are dumped into our nation’s landfills each year. One way to preserve the environment is to use less glass. Wax melt warmers are extremely robust and last between 4 and 6 years on average with good care. If you decide to go with wax melt warmers instead of traditional candle jars, you could contribute to saving the environment massive amounts of trash. That’s fantastic!
4. You Can Control Your Scent by using Wax Melts
You can control the intensity of your fragrance with wax melts, as you can use more or less, based on your scent sensitivity or size of the space. For our melts, as an example, cut each melt into 4 equal parts. Simply put a quarter of a melt into any wax warmer to quickly make the room smell in a matter of minutes. Add more for large open rooms. When the heater is turned off, the wax will harden. It can be used for multiple uses until the scent has expired. To change the fragrance melt the wax, wash the warmer before adding the new wax.
5. Wax Melting Is Fun!
Wax melting is a fun method to introduce children to science! Allow them to watch the melt transform from liquid wax to solid wax and then harden as it cools!
The melting of wax can also be fun for adults. The melting of wax is often employed to create new scents. For instance, If you have a Eucalyptus Melt and the Sinus Relief wax melt, you may want to place one quarter of each in your warmer to create an excellent mint scent ideal for noses with a stuffy odor. Apple Oh and Vanilla would make a wonderful sweet apple pie a la mode. You can be very creative with melts, and even the scent intensity is often controlled. A little or a lot! You can choose. You’re the boss.
The bottom line is that wax melts are long-lasting, fun cost-effective and provide an effective way to take pleasure in amazing scents. They’re a good choice for people who want to control the amount of scent, experiment with blending scents and infuse your home with delightful scents.
