What kind of wax are Scentsy Candle Bars made of?

Scentsy uses a food-grade petroleum based wax. This wax is used because of its superior scent loading ability, melt point and firmness. Scentsy looked into vegetable based waxes, but we just couldn’t create a quality candle bar.

What is food grade petroleum wax?

It’s basically the same wax that gives apples there shine in supermarkets.

What type of oil do you use in your candles?

Key fragrance oil, the highest grade of oil before processing.

How long will our Candle Bars last?

Each candle bar will last a minimum of 50-60 hours, some even last longer! It all depends on the strength of the fragrance.

Should I use a whole candle bar at once?

Candle bars break-a-part into six sections. Just break off one or two candle bar sections and place them in our candle warmer. Next turn on your warmer, relax and enjoy.

How hot does the wax get when warmed?

The wax will be heated to just above body temperature, it won’t get hot enough to burn or harm anyone.

How do I clean the wax out of the warmer?

Place the warmer lid in the freezer for 5-10 minutes, once the wax is cold enough it should slide out. You can also pour melted wax into a disposable container and wipe the candle warmer lid with some paper towels or napkins. Now you can pop in another piece of your favourite scent.
