Candles give off light and scent to help set the mood and make a room feel comfortable. But if you can’t have candles for a variety of reasons, from the regulations of where you live to your fear of open flames, candle melts are an excellent alternative that allows you to enjoy scented wax in a heat-safe way.
Candle melts are little cubes of wax that you can put in a special wax melt burner to create the same effect as a candle. They come in a wide array of fragrances to match your mood and can be easily broken off into smaller chunks for easy use. The great thing about these is that they are made from a natural base such as soy wax or coconut oil and are infused with essential oils which are a lot safer for the environment than traditional paraffin candles.
Another benefit of these is that they don’t produce soot as traditional candles do when they are burned, which can stain your walls and furniture. This soot can also irritate the lungs and trigger asthma attacks in some people. Wax melts are soot-free and can be used anywhere without worrying about this issue.
As well as being more environmentally friendly, these can also be a much cheaper option than burning a candle. This is because the melting process only takes place when they are warmed and not heated directly with a flame. This can save you a fortune over time, especially when you stock up on a few different fragrances to keep your home smelling fresh all year round.
