Soy Wax Melts/ Plastic-free/zero waste/ Handmade/Phthalate free
I've made these soy wax melts as a simple alternative for those candle lovers who would like to avoid an open flame (cats, babies etc.) But still enjoy a great smelling house. After many customer requests, I created my plastic-free soy wax melts. All the melts I had seen came in a plastic clam shells and were made with paraffin wax which didn't fit with my eco-friendly ideals. I've solved the plastic clam shell conundrum by using silicon molds and pillar blend soy wax for a solid melt (my candle soy wax was a little too soft). And here we are! I hope you enjoy my plastic-free soy wax melts and can feel good about choosing a less wasteful melt. :)
All fragrances oils are phthalate-free and adhere to RIFM and IFRA standards for safety and purity. If you'd like to know more about a particular scent, I have the fragrance profiles listed on a separate link on the site home page.
All melts are handmade and homemade in small batches.
Melts come in sets of 8 and are wrapped in biodegradable parchment paper and tied with a hemp string.
Melts will be shipped in recycled paper padded mailers or cardboard boxes and paper tape. I purchase my shipping supplies from ecoenclose.com
Reusable storage tins are also available to keep your melts potent after opening.
Each melt square weighs between 0.4-0.5oz for a total of approx. 4oz per pack.
How to use:
Simply place your wax melt on your favorite candle warmer/wax warmer and the heat will slowly melt the wax and release the fragrance into the air. Warmers heat the wax at a much lower temperature letting the fragrance oil last much longer relative to the amount of wax used.
Store your melts in re-useable containers (tupperware, jars etc.) after receiving them to hold the scent in or add one of my re-useable storage tins.
