How to Use Wax Melts and Wax Tarts Safely
- Room Size: Larger rooms need more wax melts or wax tarts for a strong scent. Allow 10-20 minutes for full melting in a well-ventilated area.
- Warmer Capacity: Avoid overfilling to prevent spills. Check your warmer’s limits.
- Preparation: Remove all packaging before melting.
- Approved Warmers: Use tea-light or UL-listed electric warmers designed for wax melts and wax tarts. Follow warmer instructions.
- Safe Melting: Do not melt on stoves or unapproved appliances.
- Supervision: Never leave melting wax unattended, especially around children or pets.
Step-by-Step Wax Melt and Tart Application
- Select Warmer: Choose a wax melt warmer (tea-light or electric) designed for safe melting.
- Add Wax: Break off 1 oz of wax or use 2-3 small melts/tarts. Add without water or oil.
- Power Up: Plug in electric warmers safely, avoiding cord hazards. Set a timer if no auto-shutoff (max 4 hours).
- Time Management: Limit burning to 4 hours max. Turn off and unplug when finished.
- Reuse Smartly: Reuse until scent fades, then replace with fresh wax.
