So, whether you're seeking a tranquil environment for self-care routines or aiming to uplift your home's aura for gatherings, stay with me whilst I pass on the baton; telling you not only how to use your wax welts, but how to replace them with such simplicity you’ll kick yourself for not realising sooner. I know I did.

How to use your wax melts

1. Choosing Your Wax Melt

Ah yes, my personal favourite. Window shopping for my senses. Or, in my case, just shopping, since I simply can’t leave things wanting in my online basket. 

Now is the time to choose a scent that fits your mood perfectly. If you’ve already gone ahead and invested in the entire meltee range (and who would blame you) then you’re spoilt for choice. 

Since meltee has created a line that features four collections to suit a variety of moods, take a minute to ask yourself: What do I need right now and which scent will match perfectly?

Here’s a breakdown of each collection to help you decide.

Vibe 

Everyone could do with an uplift. Whether you need a boost in the morning, a midday pick-me-up, or a mood-enhancing backdrop for a cosy evening, Vibe is your perfect companion. With fragrances designed to boost your vibe, this collection has been thoughtfully curated to help you find moments of joy and positivity throughout every day.

Unwind

Find new levels of tranquility with unwind - a collection designed to transform your space into a relaxing haven. Let the soft glow and calming fragrances create a serene atmosphere, inviting you to unwind and escape the day's stresses. Kick back and relax with the soothing fragrance blends and unlock new levels of unwind. 

Livin’

Transform every corner of your “livin” space into a welcoming oasis of freshness and comfort and feel right at home by making your favourite spaces smell as good as they feel.

Whether you’re looking to unwind after a long day or kickstart your mornings with an energising boost, livin has a scent for each moment.

Festive

Introducing "festive," a delightful symphony of scents that brings the spirit of the holidays right into the heart of your home. Immerse yourself in the nostalgic aroma of fresh Christmas trees, the cosy warmth of crackling fires, and the crisp, essence of winter.

2. Melt into the Mood

Now that you’ve chosen the perfect, clean scent from meltee to accompany your mood, all you need to do is remove the packaging, break off one of the cubes (just as you would your favourite chocolate bar - the similarity stops there, do not, I repeat DO NOT eat your wax melts. Though they smell delicious, they are not for consumption). Then, place the cube into the well of your burner.

Now, light an unscented tea light and place in the holder beneath the well of your burner. Or, if you’re using an electric burner, now’s the time to switch it on. 

Soon enough your space will be filled with the incredible scent from your wax melt. 

3. Enjoy 

This goes without saying but, we’re all about the self love here at meltee so, no matter how you choose to enjoy your non-toxic wax melt from the meltee range, make sure you take a second to remember that you and your home deserve a beautifully scented wax melt no matter what the occasion. 

So, whether you’ve done your big household clean and you’ve reached the satisfying moment of lighting the candles and melting your melts. Or, if you’re nestling down with a good book to unwind for a cosy night in. Or, even starting your morning with an uplifting boost and you want to set the tone for the day ahead, enjoy the moment of breathing in your chosen fragrance. You’ve earned it. 

Replacing your Wax Melts

Now for the tricky part. For me at least. 

1. Once you’ve had your fill of the current wax melt, begin by lighting your tealight or turn on your electric burner and wait 30-60 seconds for the wax to become slightly warm and can be moved. 
2. Next, gently press on one side of the wax melt and push the old wax out. 
3. Finally, wipe the well clean with paper and you're good to go again!

Simple, hey? 

Well, there you have it, a guide on exactly how to use and replace your wax melts safely and with incredible ease. I hope that, in sharing this valuable information, I can help you avoid some of the many mishaps I’ve personally found myself in - leaving you to go about your day and enjoy your meltee melts with peace of mind. 

Peace of mind in that, not only have you avoided wax induced mayhem, you’ve also done so with a product that is created from 100% natural soy wax, is non-toxic, and completely safe for your home. We know how important these things are for you, so, just like we haven’t scrimped on incredible fragrances, we haven’t scrimped on the really important things either. Mindful melting is at the very core of what we do.
