F.A.Q

WHAT ARE WAX MELTS?

• Wax melts are scented  pieces of  wax that are available in various shapes and sizes. They can be made from numerous types of wax but here at Little Miss Twiggie Twinkles we only use the highest quality Soy wax.
• Wax melts require a wax warmer or wax burner to melt the wax, meaning unlike a candle the wax does not come into direct contact with a naked flame, therefore they are able to release aromas without burning the oils.
• They are safe for the environment and produce super long lasting fragrance for your home and workplace.

HOW DO YOU USE WAX MELTS?

• Place your desired amount of scented wax pieces onto your wax burner.
• Place a lighted 4 hour unscented tealight underneath the well of your burner and begin to enjoy the release of beautiful aromas from the pool of melting wax.
• We recommend burning your soy wax melt pieces for a maximum of four hours at a time. This will prevent your wax burner from over heating and prolong the life of your wax melts.
• Wax melts are also compatible with electric wax burners. They work like your traditional burner but are powered by electric using either a heating element inside the dish, or a bulb inside the body of the burner to melt the wax.

HOW MANY TIMES CAN YOU USE WAX MELTS ?

HOW LONG DO WAX MELTS LAST FOR?

• The method in which you melt your wax melts will also have a big impact on how long your melts last for, using a tea light inside a standard wax melt burner will get hotter than an a electric wax burner which is plugged in to a socket & uses either a light bulb within the body of the burner or a heating element within the dish of the burner.
• High heat = more scent but less burn time
• Low heat = less scent but more burn time
