Hey there, wax melt lovers! We know many of you love wax melts due to the fact that there's no flame. It feel safer, right? Well, did you know even wax melts have their dangers? Today we're filling you in on all things wax melt safety. So, let's dive into some essential wax melt safety tips you need to know!
Read the Instructions
First things first, it might sound like a no-brainer, but reading the instructions on your wax melt packaging is crucial. It might seem obvious, but each product may have specific guidelines for use, so take a moment to familiarize yourself with them. This will ensure you use the wax melts correctly and safely.
Use Approved Warmers
Always use an approved wax melt warmer or an electric wax melt burner designed for this purpose. Using makeshift or inappropriate heating devices can be dangerous and might lead to accidents.
Choose the Right Location
Place your wax melt warmer on a flat, heat-resistant surface away from flammable materials like curtains, paper, or furniture. Remember, safety first!
Monitor Children and Pets
If you have little ones or fur babies, ensure that the wax melt warmer is out of their reach. Wax melt warmers can get quite hot, so better safe than sorry.
Don't Overfill
While we adore the heavenly scent of our wax melts, avoid overfilling the warmer dish. A small amount of wax goes a long way and prevents accidental spills. We recommend 1-2 cubes max!
Never Leave Unattended
Remember the golden rule - never leave a burning or melted wax unattended. It only takes a moment for accidents to happen, and we want you to stay safe!
Proper Wax Disposal
Once your wax melt has lost its fragrance, let the wax cool and harden before disposing of it. You can pop the solid wax out of the warmer dish or use a cotton ball/paper towel to absorb the liquid wax. Never pour hot wax down the drain! Wax doesn't stay melted forever, so pouring it down the sink will eventually lead to clogged drains! We don't want that.
Clean Regularly
Keep your wax melt warmer clean by wiping it down with a damp cloth when it's cooled. This will prevent any residue buildup and keep your warmer working effectively.
Avoid Water in the Wax
We all know water and oil don't mix, right? Well, neither do water and melted wax. So never add water to the wax melt warmer. It can cause splattering or even create a fire hazard.

Of course, one of the best ways to ensure safety is to choose high-quality wax melts like those from Chill Babe Candle Co. Our products are handcrafted with love and safety in mind, using eco-friendly ingredients and phthalate-free fragrances.
