About our Products
How Do I Use Wax Melts?
Our wax melts are suitable for both tea light wax melt burners and electric wax warmers. We don’t advise using our wax melts in an oil burner as the flame tends to be too close to the dish – overheating the wax.
Original Wax Melts
We recommend breaking or cutting these into smaller pieces – adding a piece to your wax burner until you know how much is suitable for your burner.
Segment Wax Melts
Our segment wax melts are convenient with the chunks being able to be broken off as they come out of the packaging. We recommend adding 1 piece to your wax burner, again, checking to see how much is suitable for your burner.
Please don’t overfill your wax warmer.
Wax Snap Bar
Similar to our segment wax melts, our wax snap bars are convenient. Simply break off a piece and add to your burner. (We have two wax snap bar designs which are selected at random by the packing team.)
Wax Brittle
For our wax brittle, we recommend using generous pieces and adding to your wax warmer.
What Are Wax Melts Made From?
Wax Melts
Our wax melts are made using high-quality soy wax which is biodegradable, along with vegan friendly and cruelty free fragrance oils, dyes and glitter.
Segment Wax Melts
Just like above, we use the finest, high-quality ingredients in our segment wax melts with the addition of mica powder for a beautiful wax pool!
Soy Wax
Soy Wax comes from the soy bean and this means it’s a 100% natural wax. The best part of all – it’s biodegradable and vegan friendly!
How Do I Change / Clean The Wax?
It’s quite simple to clean your wax burner and we’ve got our go-to tips below!
Traditional Wax Burner – Add a tea light candle underneath the dish / bowl and wait for around 20-40 seconds. Gently press on either side of the wax and it should come out of the dish / bowl.
Electric Burner: Switch on your wax warmer and wait for the wax to soften slightly so you can push the edges and remove the wax from the dish / bowl.
You can also let the wax melt completely, adding cotton pads to the dish / bowl which will soak up all the melted wax.
Please do not pour wax down the sink, drain or toilet.
How Do I Use Scented Sizzlers?
Our scented sizzlers are suitable for both tea light wax melt burners and electric wax warmers. We don’t advise using sizzlers in an oil burner as the flame tends to be too close to the dish.
Scented Sizzlers
A great alternative to wax melts, all you need to do is add 2-3 teaspoons of granules to your wax burner which will produce a lovely, room-filling fragrance.
Our sizzlers are made using a unique blend of salts for a lovely fragrance.
Sizzlers will lose their colour but you can re-use them until there’s no fragrance left. Please note, sizzlers do NOT melt.
To discard, once cooled, simply empty into the bin and move on to another fragrance.
Carpet Powder
Carpet Powder
Our carpet powders are made with the finest ingredients which are pet-friendly however we do recommend keeping pets (and children) away as the carpet powder settles.
Although it is completely safe to use, every pet is different.
We use pure food grade sodium bicarbonate which is perfect for helping to clean and freshen the carpets and rugs in your home, helping to remove bad odours and keeping your home smell fresh and clean.
How Do I Store Products?
We recommend storing products in a cool, dry place – away from any sunlight for best results.
Our tamper evident pots are stackable, you can stack the pots upright.
Fragrances
We spend a lot of time developing all of our products and all of the fragrances that we use in our products have been carefully selected and sourced. All our fragrances are fully compliant with IFRA (International Fragrance Association) and RIFM (Research Institute for Fragrance Materials) regulations. The fragrances that we use in our products are cruelty free, suitable for vegans/vegetarians, paraben free and not tested on animals.
All our fragrance oils have been tested over time through our product development process to ensure high quality – before being used and turned into products for our lovely customers to enjoy.
Essential Oils – The reason why we don’t use essential oils in our products is because they have been linked to being unsafe around some pets. Instead, we use high quality synthetic fragrances which create a beautiful aroma for your home and are safe – as long as they are not consumed.
On all our products, you will be able to see the required CLP information and details as per the legislations and regulations.
What Payment Methods Do You Accept?
At the moment, we accept payments through PayPal.
You can pay through PayPal using your debit or credit card and this includes VISA, Mastercard, American Express and Maestro.
