Are our Wax Melts Safe During Pregnancy?

During pregnancy, many expectant parents become more conscious about the products they use in their homes. We understand these concerns and want to provide you with clear, honest information about our wax melts.

Our Commitment to Safety

We carefully formulate our wax melts using:

  • High-quality soy wax base
  • Carefully chosen fragrance or essential oils
  • No harmful phthalates
  • No paraffin wax

Safe Scenting During Pregnancy

While our wax melts are crafted with safety in mind, we recommend:

  • Using in well-ventilated areas
  • Limiting usage to 2-3 hours at a time
  • Starting with smaller amounts to test sensitivity
  • Discontinuing use if you experience any discomfort

Professional Guidance

We always recommend:

  • Consulting with your healthcare provider if you have any concerns about using scented products
  • Being mindful of any new sensitivities that may develop during pregnancy
  • Paying attention to your body's responses to different fragrances

Pregnancy-Friendly Favourites

Many expectant parents find comfort in our milder scents such as:

  • Pure Lavender
  • Vanilla Bean
  • Fresh Cotton
  • Subtle Citrus

Scents to give a Miss During Pregnancy

Pay attention to wax melts made with essential oils, while these often have calming properties, they also contain some ingredients that are suggested you skip during pregnancy.  To check if your scent has any of these ingredients check the CLP label, or where we have used these, we have noted this in the product descriptions.  We suggest that you avoid:

  • Clary Sage: might pop up as Salvia sclarea
  • Rosemary: will often be listed as Rosmarinus officinalis
  • Camphor: could be labelled as Cinnamomum camphora or just camphor.

We are a big fan of Nikura Essential Oils, and you can read more about essential oils and pregnancy on their blog here
