Have you recently purchased Belaia indoor scented products but are worried that your candle or diffuser will burn out too quickly? Don't panic, our team is here to share with you our best Tips for the longevity of our products!
Choose the right products
As you probably know (or not…) vegetable wax candles (coconut and rapeseed oil) like our Belaia candles are already models of longevity. Indeed, vegetable wax tends to diffuse fragrance more slowly and burn longer and cleaner than artificial paraffin wax candles. You must still remember to cut the wick regularly in order to promote optimal combustion (and yes!).
Choose the right location
Then, after selecting the best products (choose Belaia if you haven't already!), you need to know WHERE to place your candle or diffuser inside your living space for maximum longevity.
The first thing to take into account is drafts. Indeed, to prolong the life of your indoor perfume, it is better to avoid drafts by placing your candle or diffuser far from fans, air vents and open windows, where the perfume is will dissipate more quickly.
Then, the best tactic would be to install your home fragrance in the rooms you occupy most often, such as the living room, bedroom or bathroom, in order to maximize the usefulness of its scent.
Gather the optimal conditions
After choosing your Belaia products and installing your candle or diffuser in a strategic location in your living space, we have some additional recommendations:
First of all, by storing your indoor perfumes at room temperature, away from direct heat sources (fireplace, radiator) or excessive cold, they will be less subject to sudden temperature changes, which will guarantee a prolonged life. .
Then, remember to keep your candle or diffuser in a place with an average humidity level (between 40 and 60%) in order to promote the diffusion of the perfume.
Finally, by protecting your perfumes from direct sunlight, you will prevent it from degrading the perfume essences and dulling the colors of your products.
To make a 'reasoned' use of it
In addition, to extend the life of your candle or diffuser, you must obviously use it “reasonably”.
That is to say, at first, it is better to avoid using your interior perfumes excessively, as this can saturate the air and become unpleasant. So, you must use them in moderation (you have to make the pleasure last!).
In a second step you can alternate between different perfumes (i.e. different scents) to avoid olfactory habituation (which could make you think that you no longer smell your perfume). The Belaia range offers you 6 different scents for your candles and diffusers, which you can find right here .
Finally, as we mentioned previously, the safest way to extend the life of your home fragrances is to store them in an appropriate place; i.e. in a cool, dry place away from light/sun when not in use.
The Tips from the Belaia team
Finally, our team gives you some Tips specific to Belaia products that make them unique:
- The possibility of refilling them: In fact, we offer wax refills and perfume refills in order to reuse your glasses endlessly and make your interior fragrances immortal.
- The Belaia concept: In addition to refills, we have designed interchangeable (or convertible) products. That is to say, our (or your!) candles can become diffusers! (Amazing right?) Simply put a wax or perfume refill inside your glass, whether it was originally a candle or a diffuser! And vice versa!
- The diffusers: Belaia Tips is to turn the sticks of your Belaia diffuser regularly (approximately every week according to your wishes) in order to revive the smell.
- Candles: We recommend that you take care to ensure that all the wax in your Belaia candle melts evenly. Indeed, the objective is that your candle does not create a “hole” in the wax which will never burn and which will result in waste… (No one likes waste and neither does Belaia!) Make sure on your first use that all the wax is well melted before putting it out. You have to let it burn for about 2 hours the first time.
By following these tips, you will be able to enjoy your natural home fragrances for longer and create a pleasant, fragrant atmosphere in your home!
