Some people might be wondering which is better - Scentsy or traditional wick candle?
As a previous candle user, I can attest to the benefits Scentsy has over candles.
I was turned on to Scentsy by my mother-in-law a few years back. At first, I did not see the benefits over candles. But, after buying our house, marrying a firefighter, and having children, I realized Scentsy was superior. Here are my top 5 reasons Scentsy is better than candles:
- Safer -Most Important! Scentsy uses a low watt light bulb to warm the fragrant wax. Candles use a flame which could catch your house on fire if a dog, kid, or other object knocked it over. With my husband being a firefighter, this is a must for our house!
- Cheaper - Second Most Important! Initially, it might be a little more expensive (I call it the start up cost) but the ongoing cost is much cheaper. You can buy a Scentsy warmer from $20-$45 depending on what style you like and each Scentsy bar (plastic package of wax cubes) is $5 for 1 or $25 for 6 bars (get 1 free). I did a quick comparison with Yankee candles from Bed, Bath and Beyond and a Deluxe Scentsy Warmer ($30). In 2 years, you would save $208.56 by using a Scentsy warmer and waxes and thats if you used a $5 off coupon every time you bought a Yankee candle.
- More Attractive for your Home Decor - Have you seen all the beautiful warmers Scentsy offers? They have one to suite everyone's style to make your house look beautiful and smell good too. Who wants a plain glass candle with the candle companies name on a label? Not me! Here are some of my favorite warmers from the Fall/Winter 2015 catalog. You can see all the beautiful warmers on my website at https://smellthegoodness.scentsy.us/Buy/Category/2855
- Huge Variety of Fragrances - Did you know there are 80 different fragrant waxes Scentsy offers in the 2015 Fall/Winter Catalog? And pretty much all of them smell amazing (only a couple I don't like). Make your kitchen smell like you just baked an Apple Pie (Baked Apple Pie) or your bedroom smell like a romantic retreat (Honeymoon Hideaway).

- More Convenient - Tired of trying to find a lighter to light your candle? Tired of reaching your hand down in the candle when the wick is at the bottom and you get that nasty soot on your hand? I know I was. Plus, I hated when the wick would burn out before the entire wax was gone - what a waste! You can turn on Scentsy with a click of a button. I keep all of my Scentsy warmers plugged-in. In the morning, I turn them all on by clicking the dial switch or toggle button. When I go to bed, I turn them all off. Every 4-5 days, I change out my wax when it looses its fragrance. I love choosing my new Scentsy waxes that day - it's like opening a present for myself! I think, "What am I in the mood for today?" I turn on all my Scentsy warmers for 5 minutes, use my Scentsy spatula to pop the wax out and throw away, then break off 2 cubes of my bar and put in the top of the warmer. In 10 minutes, my house is smelling amazing!
I invite you to try Scentsy, you will not be disappointed. You can buy a package that includes a nightlight warmer (plugs right into the outlet like the Jane and Chasing Fireflies pictures above) and 3 bars for $34 which will last 240 hours. $34 for beautiful decor and amazing home fragrance is a good deal!
