Wax Melt FAQs
What are wax melts and how do I use them?
Discover how to use Dewdrop Mystique’s wax melts for a clean, flame-free fragrance experience. Made with a premium Coconut, Soy, and Sunflower blend, our melts offer long-lasting scent, easy cleanup, and safe enjoyment around pets and family.
Wax melts are small pieces of scented wax that gently release fragrance when warmed—without the need for a flame.
To use them:
- Choose a wax warmer: Select an electric or tea light warmer designed for wax melts.
- Add your wax: Place one or more wax cubes in the warmer dish.
- Turn it on/light it: As the wax warms and melts, it will release fragrance into the air.
- Adjust the strength: Use more or fewer cubes—or adjust the warmer’s heat level—to reach your preferred scent intensity.
- Turn off the warmer/extinguish the flame: When you’re finished, switch off the warmer and let the wax cool and solidify for easy removal later.
How long do wax melts last?
Burn time varies by warmer type, wax blend, and cube size, but most melts last 8–12 hours per cube.
Our plant-based Coconut Soy blend offers a slow, clean melt with excellent fragrance throw, ensuring long-lasting aroma and minimal residue.
Can I mix and match scents?
Absolutely! Wax melts are perfect for scent blending. Combine different cubes to create your own signature fragrance.
Start with small portions—some scent families (like woods and florals) blend more harmoniously than others—then adjust until you find the perfect combination.
Are wax melts safe to use around pets and children?
Wax melts are generally safe when used responsibly, but always exercise caution:
- Keep out of reach: Place warmers and melts in areas pets and children can’t access.
- Use natural ingredients: Our melts are made with a plant-based Coconut Soy blend and phthalate-free fragrance oils.
- Monitor reactions: Some animals (and people especially small children) may be sensitive to certain scents.
- Supervise use: Never leave an active warmer unattended.
What kind of wax do you use?
We use a premium Coconut, Soy, and Sunflower blend, chosen for its smooth appearance, clean melt, and excellent scent diffusion.
This plant-based formula is renewable, biodegradable, and paraffin-free—offering a sustainable, cleaner way to enjoy fragrance throughout your home.
What wicks or warmers should I use?
Our melts are designed for electric or tealight wax warmers—no wicks required.
If you prefer a tealight warmer, use an unscented tealight in a sturdy, heat-safe holder.
Different warmers operate at different temperatures, so you can experiment to find your ideal scent strength and longevity.
Tips for Best Results
- Use in well-ventilated areas for optimal fragrance circulation.
- Avoid overfilling your warmer dish.
- Discontinue use once the fragrance has faded or all wax has melted.
- Clean your warmer between scents using cotton balls or paper towels while the wax is still soft. But not HOT!
