- The ultimate guide to choosing a scented candle online.
Candles are an effective way to enhance the ambiance of your home. With so many different candle scents available online, choosing the right one can be overwhelming. What makes one vanilla candle completely different to another? The answer is the fragrance notes, these are like music and work together in symphony to create beautiful aromas. In this post, We will teach you how each scent layer contributes to the character and uniqueness of a scented candle. Making choosing your next candle easier! What are fragrance notes? Fragrance notes are the different scents that are detected in a candle when it is burned. Candles are most often made with multiple notes that layer together to create a unique scent. There are 3 main categories of fragrance notes, Top, middle or heart and base notes. You will see on our fragrance list and product pages an explanation of what notes are in each fragrance. Top Notes Top notes are the first scents that you'll notice when you light a scented candle. Known as opening notes , they are usually light and refreshing and evaporate soonest include scents such as citrus, herbs, and light fruits. Middle / Heart Notes The Heart notes are as they suggest the heart of the fragrance, they develop as the top notes begin to dissipate and transition the fragrances smoothly from top to base. The heart notes make the foundation of a scent and give the candle its character and uniqueness. Heart notes last much longer than the top notes. Common heart notes are florals and spices and include scents like neroli, rose and nutmeg. Base Notes Base notes last the longest and create a complex and deep fragrance. The base and heart notes work together to form the main aromas of your scented candle. Once all of the other notes have evaporated the base notes remain and give you the lasting impression of the candle fragrance. These are the fragrances that linger in the room once the candle has been extinguished. Common base notes include vanilla, sandalwood and patchouli. Fragrance notes are the different scents that make up a candle's overall fragrance and creating the unique character of the candle. Knowing the different fragrance notes can help you choose the right scented candle, or wax melts for you and your home. Explore our fragrance list and product pages here to find your perfect scent.
- Eco friendly wax melts and candles.
When it comes to wax melts and candles, There is a lot of debate on which wax is best. While personal preferences vary, I strongly believe that having the right information is key to making an informed choice. As the founder of Kind Melts I put a lot of effort into looking into the best type of wax to use. I wanted something that would not only give customers a product they would love but also one that they would feel good about using. While some companies tout their products as being eco-friendly by using soy wax, I looked into how soy farming affects deforestation and decided this was not the most sustainable of options. Likewise, palm wax was crossed off the list because of its impact on the planet's natural resources. Then there was paraffin and beeswax. Beeswax is natural yes, but I wanted to enable Kind Melts to be available to a diverse range of people ( beeswax not being a vegan product ) and paraffin due to wanting to keep the products as natural as possible. My primary goal with Kind Melts was to offer a sustainable alternative to other products on the market. I chose to use a blend of coconut and rapeseed wax because it is a more environmentally conscious choice. This wax is a very clean burning, plant-based wax that's fully biodegradable and GMO-free. It gives our eco wax melts and scented candles a creamy, luxurious texture that's hard to beat. Although this wax is more expensive than some others in my opinion its well worth the expense! It holds the fragrance extremely well and the low melting point results to the fragrance being released quickly. Our wax melts not only work well in tea light wax warmers, but also electric and well known branded warmers too. Kind Melts is committed to offering sustainable, eco conscious products. I am proud to say that I've created a wonderful range of eco wax melts and scented candles that not only have a great performance but also are kinder to the planet.

- Make Valentines a day to remember.
Forget the flowers and chocolates, give a memorable gift this Valentines day. Fragrance is a powerful way to make your Valentines more memorable. Well not just Valentines but any time! There have been many scientific studies showing that fragrance is closely connected to triggering vivid memories. We all recall a time when we have experienced a smell and it makes us think of someone, something or a place. If you want that special someone think of you then give them a fragrant gift that will bring you to their mind each time they smell it. 1. Scented candles for a candle lit dinner. Candles are long associated with romance and what better than a candle lit dinner on the most romantic day of the year. Not all candles are ideal for a candle lit dinner though, you'll need the right type! A lavender scented candle is out, you don't want your special someone to be so relaxed and yawning through your impressive conversation or them saying goodnight before the main is even served. I'd recommend a citrus or clean scent, such as Air, Water or Summer to create a fresh and invigorating ambience. Obviously it doesn't have to be a scented candle, you can create a similar ambience with scented wax melts in a fruity or fresh scent. 2. Scented candles for a cosy night in. Create a perfect cosy night in with your special someone, it may be a significant other, your best friend or why not make yourself number one! You're important too! Get that rom com on the tv, or some soft seductive music, sprinkle some rose petals about if thats your thing. Then to add the finishing touch with the wooden wick candle. A soft soothing crackle from the wooden wick, a gentle flickering flame giving a romantic and cosy low light and a warm, cosy scent. Whats not to love? I'd recommend something warm and inviting such as Autumn, Earth or our popular Fire scented candle for heating it up a bit. Check out the Woody and Oriental wax melt scents for wax melt alternatives. 3. Valentines pamper night. Pamper gifts always go down well, It shows the person that they're comfort is being considered. We all need a little care and pampering from time to time. Candle lit baths are the ultimate go to for a home spa like experience. Low lighting creating a calm atmosphere, luxurious scents and soft relaxing music. A beautifully scented bath with bath salts in tranquillity, unwind or Serene will not only leave them feeling the same way but also leave the skin feeling soft and scented. Pair this with the organic body wash and candle in complimenting fragrances. Here are some of Kind Melts recommendations for the perfect fragrant blend Relaxing and calming Tranquillity or Unwind bath salts with Amber and Lavender body wash and matching wax melt scents. Romantic and seductive Indulgence bath salts with the Amore scented candle and Earth body wash. Full on romance with the addition of rose petals for that touch of luxury.

- Organic Hand & Body wash
Kind Melts organic hand and body wash is finally here! Fed up with the amount of plastic bottles in my bathroom, I decided to develop a new range of hand & body wash to compliment the existing Kind Melts products. I'm going to tell you a little more about the organic hand & body wash, but don't take my word for it! I'll also add the latest customer feedback from Facebook. Lets start with style. Before we even get to the goodies inside, let me tell you about the packaging. Kind Melts hand & body wash comes in a stylish, smoky amber glass bottle. Not only picked for its timeless, classic style but also for its eco quality. Refill and reuse this bottle again and again and when you fancy a change you can either recycle or repurpose it. (Our refills will be available in the near future) Notice the logo label on the front of the bottle? It looks plastic doesn't it, but is actually a compostable film made from wood pulp from renewable resources. It looks and feels like plastic but is made from sustainable materials. A kinder option. As with all Kind Melts products kindness and nature are at the forefront of my mind when developing products. The hand and body wash contains 74% organic ingredients. Coconut derivatives form the base of the majority of Kind Melts products so why should we stop there. The base recipe of the hand and body wash is also made with coconut oils and has wonderful fruit extracts for added skin benefits. Here are some of the benefits of these fabulous ingredients. Coconut surfactants - Made from the fatty acids of coconut oil. These are gentle, foamy but effective cleansers which don't dry out the skin. Bilberry fruit extract - For skin benefits including cleansing, tightening, and nourishing. Bilberry is hydrating, an antiseptic and full of antioxidants to help strengthen and protect the skin. Mango fruit extract - Antioxidant properties and rich in vitamins to help hydrate and improve the skin tone. Aloe Leaf juice - Has rejuvenating effects and has been shown to have an invigorating effect on skin when applied on a regular basis. It is an excellent emollient, making it soothing and calming to the skin. Whats not in it? SLS -Sodium Lauryl Sulphate / Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulphate An ingredient in many soaps, it is a cleaning and frothing agent and can cause skin issues such as skin drying and itching. Kind Melts use coconut oil derived ingredients for the cleansing and bubbles! Dyes and glitters Yes sometimes they're attractive in body washes but is there any point to them, especially in a coloured bottle. Kind Melts decided to just keep with the natural colouring. Lilial - You may be aware that the EU has banned Lilial in cosmetic products on the market. The UK hasn't put this into place as yet but it will be coming very soon. All of Kind Melts bath and body products do not and have never contained Lilial. And finally. My personal opinion. Yes I am biased but I do use my own products, if it was not good enough for my family and I, then I wouldn't be selling it to others. It feels amazing on the skin, froths really well and has enough fragrance to leave the skin smelling wonderful. What customers have said. Wow guys just had the most amazing shower I've had since before my son was born. The water element body wash I got was awesome, the smell filled the room and I could actually feel myself relaxing. I actually wanted to stay in there for hours and probably would have if not for the hot water running out seriously 10/10 Now I've tried the fire body wash and I'm just as addicted to that I thought it might be quite a manly smell as a body wash but it's really not its warming and soothing. Works amazing as a body wash or bubble bath really good amount of bubbles! I've got lychee and fire body wash now. Kind Melts Organic hand & body wash.

Switch off those screens, Light a candle, relax in a warm bath salts bath and then hit the sack for some Zzz. Take some time for yourself. Read a book, binge that Netflix series, spend some time pampering yourself, Bake, dance, sing, put your favourite wax melts on .. Do whatever you enjoy doing once a week you deserve some time out. Talk. Humans are naturally sociable and with the recent lockdowns its not surprise many peoples mental health has been affected. Its ok not to be ok, talking is a great way to release some of the stress. Even better than Talking, hug someone! a pet, a friend or family. A hug can give you ( and them) comfort and connect you. Look after your physical health. It doesn't have to be a huge change even committing to drinking more water can benefit you.
