To ensure this, please reference the previous order(s) that you would like to combine in the note section of your shopping cart and email to us at info@destinationwax.com.

We will not always automatically combine shipping so please notify us if you want combined shipping.

- COMBINED SHIPPING for PRE-ORDERS: You can combine orders placed within the entire Pre-Order period (for example all Pre-Orders placed between January 1st and the morning of January 3rd can be combined).

We will not always automatically combine shipping so please notify us if you want combined shipping.

Our Wax:
- Our wax is a proprietary blend of paraffin and soy waxes, formulated for exceptional throw, longevity, and trueness of scent. We hand pour in small batches to ensure the highest quality in our products.
- Our wax has been tested in and throws well in a variety of warmers including hot plates (15, 18, 20, and 24 watts), CandleAires, ScentSationals and Scentsy bulb warmers (25 and 40 watts), Scentsy bulb plug-ins (15 watts) for powder rooms, and tea light warmers. For most rooms, 24-watt hot plate warmers work great.
- Packaging: All wax is packaged in polypropylene; the inner liner of the Kraft bakery bags is polypropylene. Store wax in original packaging or in a sealed polypropylene bag.
- Listed product weight is finished weight and is approximate; actual weight will vary but is typically more than the listed minimum.
-
Cure Time: Cure time of two to four weeks after pour date is recommended. If a longer cure time for a certain scent is recommended, it will be noted on the Wax Scent List. Most vanilla scents benefit from a longer cure time of around 4 weeks or longer.
General Information about Wax Melts / Wickless Scented Candles:
Melting Wax Melts: To prevent fire or injury: Remove packaging before use. Use only in tea-light warmers or UL listed electric warmers approved for wax melts. Read and follow all instructions provided with your warmer. Place wax melts in a warmer. Do not add water, oil, or anything else. If using a tea light warmer, there should be at least two inches between the flame and the underside of the warmer dish. If your tea light warmer does not have a two-inch clearance, do not use it. Do not leave warmers unattended while in use. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Do not melt on stove top or in non-approved appliances. Use only in well-ventilated areas away from flammable objects.
For most warmers, we recommend using 0.75 ounces of wax or more (2 to 3 cubes from a Break-Away Bar, 1/2 Shot Cup, one Block, or 2 to 3 Mini Cakes). Even better is two warmers per room - and two warmers with wax split between them works better than a large amount of wax (1.5 to 2 ounces for example) in one warmer. Too much wax in a warmer may not get hot enough to throw well. If your warmer has a wide dish, then 1 Shot Cup or 2 Blocks will also work well. It is easy to cut the wax with a blunt knife or a soap/wax cutter. For small powder rooms, a wall plug-in warmer with about 0.5 to .75 ounces of wax works great. Scent strength may decrease in rooms with open windows and/or running air conditioning and/or ceiling fans.
Removing Wax from Warmers: If your warmer has a removable dish, allow wax to cool completely and harden. Place the dish with the cooled wax into the freezer. After about 15 minutes, the wax can be pushed out of the dish by pushing down at one edge with a blunt knife. Sometimes just tipping the dish over will be enough for the cold wax to slide out of the dish on its own. If your warmer does not have a removable dish, do not let the wax cool and solidify. Use a cotton ball or some wadded-up bathroom tissue to soak up the liquid wax and throw it away. Be careful, the wax will still be hot to the touch. Don’t become a statistic in the world of melted wax. Wipe out any remaining wax with more tissue.
Wax Pour Dates: The Pour Date on wax products is approximate...the actual date of when the wax was poured is within 5 days of the printed pour date.
Soap Information:
Our handmade soaps are primarily made from natural, moisture-rich vegetable oils. They contain no animal byproducts, alcohols, chemical hardeners, detergents, phthalates, sulfates, or sugar solutions. The Clear Soap is our only soap that contains a surfactant. These soaps are not elaborate blends of chemicals and detergents, which can be both harsh on your skin and have a negative environmental impact due to manufacturing waste and their limited biodegradability.
These soaps rinse clean, leaving behind little to no moisturizing oils.
To get the best lather, use with a wet bath pouf or washcloth!

Bar Size: All soaps except Slices are listed as approximate fluid ounces (volume), not in finished weight. Slices are listed as approximate finished weight.
Fragrances: Most of our soaps are scented with fragrance oils (all phthalate-free) and/or essential oils. Soaps labeled, “Simple”, have no added fragrance. Honeybee Simple Soaps have no added fragrance, however, they will naturally have a light scent of honey.
Colors: Most of our soaps contain cosmetic grade colorants. These include micas, clays, pigments, plant-derived colorants, activated charcoal, coconut carbon powder, and glitters. Colors may be different from what is shown online and can vary from bar to bar. Colors may change as the bar gets used. Some soaps have mica and/or glitter on their surface; this mica and/or glitter will wash off after a few uses and the bar will have more lather after that. Although the lather on all bars is nearly always light in color, we recommend that you do not use white or light-colored cloths or towels with soaps of dark or rich colors. Soaps labeled, “Simple” have no added colorants.
Loofah, Oatmeal, Poppy Seeds, Pumice, and Salts: Soaps containing loofah, ground oatmeal, poppy seeds, pumice, and/or salts should not be used on the face or on sensitive or damaged skin.
Packaging: Most bars are partially shrink-wrapped in polypropylene and then sealed in a polypropylene bag so the packaging may look clunky. This is necessary to protect the soaps in the mail. Use a sharp scissors to carefully cut off the polypropylene shrink wrap. Keep soaps sealed in their original packaging or sealed in a polypropylene bag until ready to use.
Shelf Life and Storage: Although the soaps do not have an indefinite shelf life, their lathering and cleansing qualities will remain for at least a year. After a time, however, appearance and colors may change, fragrances may fade, and soaps may shrink slightly as they begin to lose moisture. Soaps may develop a translucent or white “glycerin dew”, which is beads of water being drawn from the air onto the soap surface. If this happens, you can simply use the soap or place it in the sun until the beads evaporate or wipe with a clean cloth. Do not let soaps sit in water; they will last longer if stored on a self-draining dish or on a soap-saver/soap-lift.
We cannot be held responsible for allergic reactions or conditions due to use of our products. If you have known allergies, check product label and associated ingredient information above before using. For people with sensitive skin, test products on a small area to see if you have a reaction.

Your data is stored through Shopify’s data storage, databases and the general Shopify application. They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall.

If you choose a direct payment gateway to complete your purchase, then Shopify stores your credit card data. It is encrypted through the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Your purchase transaction data is stored only as long as is necessary to complete your purchase transaction. After that is complete, your purchase transaction information is deleted.
All direct payment gateways adhere to the standards set by PCI-DSS as managed by the PCI Security Standards Council, which is a joint effort of brands like Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover.
PCI-DSS requirements help ensure the secure handling of credit card information by our store and its service providers.

In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.
