What is the difference between soy and paraffin waxes?
We chose soy because it is all natural and clean burning. You won't get the black smoke that can leave soot on your walls and ceilings. Paraffin wax is derived from petroleum, coal or oil shale.
Soy wax also burns slower, giving you more of an opportunity to enjoy your candle.
I haven't used wax melts before. Can yoy tell me about them?
Wax melts are a great alternative to having a candles. You get the same great scent but without the flame.
You will need a melter. Our wax melts will only work in our melters. Just kidding. Our wax melts will work in any brand. Message us for details on the melters we have in stock. Our shot cup sized wax melts are a perfect size for your standard wax melter. If you have a smaller melter (night light size) simply cut the wax melt in half.
When you are ready to experience the amazing aroma of our wax melts, turn the shot cup over and pop out the melt into the warmer tray.
When the scent is gone (12-15 hours of warming), put the warmer tray in the freezer. Once the wax is solid, pop it out and discard. Or, you can soak it up with cotton balls while it is still liquid. CAUTION: If you use this method, the wax may still be hot.
Can you customize the label?
Absolutely! Message us at 40lifecandles@gmail.com to let us know what you are thinking.
We have created custom labels for engagement party favors, bachelorette gifts, corporate gifts, and the just because gifts with a special message.
