wax melts 101

wax melts are scented cubes of wax that you place into a wax warmer.

a wax warmer is a device that heats up (usually using light bulbs) and allows the wax to melt, which gives off the fragrance.

at rhuna, we use a special type of coconut wax that is perfect for melts because they snap or break off with minimal issues.

wax melts come in all shapes, sizes, and containers.

at rhuna, we use "snap bars". they look like chocolate bars (do not eat!!!).

we place them into glassine bags (a type of paper that is air, water, and grease resistant).

this can vary on several different factors depending on:

-the type of warmer you use
-the size of the warmer
-how many cubes you are using
-the size of the room
-personal sensitivity

.

some of the stronger scents (like elo hell, aoe healing, and afk) last up to 200+ hours per snap bar.

the lighter scents (like touch grass and gamer juice) may need a few more cubes for strength, so you may get 100+ hours per snap bar.

if you're struggling smelling any fragrance, consider moving the warmer to a smaller room (such as bathroom or small office)

if that still doesn't work, consider the type of warmer you use.

if you're looking for suggestions on a type of warmer, send us a message (instagram or twitter dms work best) and we can give you some suggestions
