FAQ
I have tried to answer as many of the usual questions I do get regarding our products, but if you have any that aren't listed here, please contact and let me know!
SOY WAX MELTS
What is a wax melt?
Wax melts are scented pieces of wax, much like a candle but without the wick. We have an unbeatable range of scents and fragrances ranging from perfume to laundry.
How long do wax melts last?
One block from our Shimmer Melts or 4 Blocks from our Snap Bars can last up to 36 hours of scent! Wax melts are better than candles in terms of value for money.
How often should I change the wax in my wax warmer?
We recommend switching to a fresh wax melt ever 2-3 4 hour tea lights or 4 - 5 days in an electric warmer.
What wax melter should I use?
We recommend using an electric wax burners and plug in warmers for optimal scent throw but our wax melts can also be used in tea-light burners.
What is scent throw?
Scent throw is a term used to describe how strong the fragrance is and how quickly the scent travels. A good melt will fill the room with strong fragrance within 10 minutes of melting.
Do wax melts evaporate?
Unlike candles, wax melts do not come into contact with a naked flame so do not evaporate. Simply burn the same piece of wax until you no longer can smell the scent and dispose of the residual wax.
How do you remove wax melts?
We have 2 favourite ways of removing wax melts from a wax burner. Firstly, we love to use cotton wool or cotton pads to soak up the molten wax and wipe the dish clean. Secondly, you can wait for the wax to set hard and run the dish under a warm tap so the wax pops out with ease. Make sure you completely dry your wax burner dish before using again.
How do you clean a wax warmer dish?
With both of our methods above you will be able to remove your wax with a clean dish every time.
Do you use biodegradable glitter in your wax melts?
Yes we do!
Can I reuse wax melts?
Once the scent throw has gone, we recommend switching your wax melt for a fresh one.
Where can I find your wax melt reviews?
We have over 240 5* reviews on our website. We also have a review highlight on our instagram.
How long are delivery times?

HANGING CAR DIFFUSERS
How long do they last?
Each car diffuser holds 10mls of fragrance, which usually lasts anywhere from 6 months to a year. This is depending on how often you refresh the scent. I recommend you refresh every 2 - 3 weeks depending.
Are the reusable?
Absolutely! We believe in reusing almost everything we sell. You can choose a new scent or the same as before. It is recommended that if you are changing the scent, to give your diffuser a bit of a wash through hot soapy water and allow to dry completely before adding a new scent.

Our range of electric warmers are completely electric! They come with a power cord and plug suitable for NZ plugs and voltage. Making them safe to use.
