Scentsy Plug-In: Review and Giveaway

August 25, 2010 By admin

A Scentsy Candle Warmer Plug In with scented wax bars will be a great way to make our home smell sweet and last longer than the traditional plug in.

One Turquoise plug in, three Scentsy bars in French Kiss, Coconut Lemongrass and Pumpkin Roll, and my main bathroom which could use a fresh scent for Summer! About Scentsy:

“Scentsy is a direct selling, wickless candle company headquartered in Meridian, Idaho. The company is owned by Orville and Heidi Thompson and sells its products through a field sales force of 40,000 independent sales representatives known as Independent Scentsy Consultants, who market and sell Scentsy products through home parties.

Scentsy sells wickless candles, ceramic warmers and home-fragrance products. A wickless candle, called a Scentsy Bar or a Scentsy Brick, is a highly fragrant wax bar that is warmed to release fragrance into the air. Because the wax is gently warmed rather than burned, it can hold more fragrance oil than a traditional candle. And, because there is no flame, there is no smoke, soot or lead. Scentsy wickless candles are a safer alternative to traditional candles.”

Recently, I have had the opportunity to try the full size Scentsy candle warmers and absolutely fell in love. When the wax melts, the scent fills my home and lasts longer than my regular wicked candles. So, I had high hopes for the plug-in version when I was approached for a review by Scentsy Consultant, Beverly Gaona.

I decided to try one that would match the decor of my bathroom. The Dandy Turquoise Plug-In matched my chocolate brown walls and I decided to try a few scents that are beyond my comfort zone. I don’t generally go for romantic scents, but I decided to try French Kiss which is a mix of sweet fig, cedar and coconut. The other two scents I chose were Coconut Lemongrass for summer and Pumpkin Roll for a holiday feel.

Setting up the plug-in was a breeze and I placed one section of the scented brick in the warmer. Within seconds, the wax was melted by the included lightbulb and the bathroom was filled with fabulous smells. The plug I chose to use is high enough to be out of reach of my pet and my two daughters, so I was confident no one would play with the warmer. The design of the plug-in is so elegant and classy….much better than those grocery store plug-ins!

Because of my recent review, I already knew I was a fan of the Scentsy system, quality and service. But, I was anxious to try the Plug-in system for my bathroom. I was pleased to see that the same great quality of the full size warmers translated into the Plug-In system as well. The style fit well with my decor and the scents filled my bathroom almost instantly. At just $13.50, I think this would make a great Housewarming gift!

Beverly Gaona, a great Scentsy representative, will generously supply one lucky reader with one Plug-In of their choice and three scents.
