Better off Wickless Warmer of the Week: 9/23/2019


Hi guys!  The warmer I’ll be highlighting this week is actually our “Monthly Special” and discounted during the month of September….   The Manic Mansion Warmer!

 


Per Scentsy, “Perfect for the parlor or the porch, the Manic Mansion Warmer offsets any sinister Halloween décor with a more approachable haunted house. Handcrafted of metal (and including a green lightbulb), the warmer's ghoulish glow, friendly ghost and broken screen door humbly beckon you in. Lift the roof to warm your favorite fragrance.”

As a consultant I subscribe to the Scent & Warmer of the Month…. What this means is that each month I get the Warmer of the month, 9 bars of the Scent of the Month, 72 Rub & Sniff stickers of the Scent of the Month, a Room Spray of the Scent of the Month along with 50 “Monthly Special” brochures that highlight the warmer & scent. 

Sometimes I put the warmer in my stock for upcoming events so I can potentially sell it, but this one I am keeping!  It’s VERY cute! I LOVE that it comes with a green bulb and I adore all the little details it has to offer.  The ghost, bat and pumpkin are cute enough, but I really love that the screen on the top window is only half there… gives it a truly spooky/abandoned feeling!

If you need this cute warmer in your life this holiday season you only have one more week to pick it up at the discounted price!  Grab yours here:

Hey friends! This week I’m going to highlight a very special, very cool warmer… it’s not out yet, but it will be available to purchase this Thursday, 9/19/2019….. ready for it??

The Darth Vader Warmer!

With the final chapter of the iconic Star Wars™ saga due in theaters later this year, excitement is building! These intergalactic products are true collector’s items!


Per Scentsy, “Give yourself to the dark side — and seduce any Star Wars™ fan — with this most-impressive Darth Vader Warmer. Besides his imposing frame, it’s the details that make his presence truly fearsome, from the light-up uniform to the TIE Fighter-shaped cutouts in back that cast ominous silhouettes on any surface.”

I love that this will be a collector’s piece and I also love that it has special Tie Fighter cut outs in the back that cast a silhouette…. That is VERY cool. 

Along with the warmer you can also get the new Star Wars: Dark Side of the Force Scentsy Bar. Per Scentsy, “Feel the power of this fully armed and operational fragrance, churning with lavender, Madagascar ginger, vetiver and agarwood.”

Here’s how you can embrace your dark side on Thursday:

  • Darth Vader™ – Scentsy Warmer, $70
  • Star Wars™: Dark Side of the Force – Scentsy Bar, $6.50

Better off Wickless Warmer of the Week: 9/9/2019


Hi everyone!  For this week’s pick I’m going to go with my favorite warmer from the new “Harvest Collection”…. 
The Crystal Leaves Warmer!

Per Scentsy, “A flurry of leaves etched right onto the warmer body comes alive when illuminated, for a magical, autumn-inspired appearance.”
I am in LOVE with this warmer! It’s so simple but beautiful and perfect for the entire Fall season! Another consultant put a yellow bulb in it and then an orange bulb (both available from Scentsy now) and it was even more gorgeous!  I’ve purchased mine but it hasn’t arrived yet…. Trying to wait patiently! LOL
If your home needs the touch of this Crystal Leaves Warmer you can pick yours up here:

Better off Wickless Warmer of the Week: 8/19/2019


Hey guys!  For this “Warmer of the Week” pick, I’m going with an oldie but goodie…. The Sand Dollar Mini Warmer!

Per Scentsy, “A high-gloss finish in pale, sandy taupe, with debossed sand dollars in white and matching light holes in between — just as pretty as the real thing.”
Interesting fact that I learned about this warmer while at Scentsy Family Reunion in Austin last month…. This is the all-time best selling mini warmer!
It makes sense when you see it and really think about it…. This warmer is simple, a beautiful neutral color and would look great literally ANYWHERE in your home.  This warmer is now being DISCONTINUED!  So… if you need this in your life you’ll want to pick one up before they go away at the end of August!  And right now this mini warmer is only $18 (regularly $20).

Better off Wickless Warmer of the Week: 8/12/2019


Hey friends!  It’s been a while since I’ve done a “Warmer of the Week” pick…. But I’m back at it and this week we’re going with August’s Warmer of the Month:  Portland

Per Scentsy, “Reminiscent of the most photographed lighthouse in the world, the Portland Warmer takes you to a peaceful Maine shoreline. Featuring handcrafted galvanized steel,  cut-out windows and a misty glow, it alludes  to a steady beacon of hope in the distance.”
I am IN LOVE with this warmer. In fact, I just purchased one for myself for when I re-do the kid’s bathroom.  It’s decorated in frogs right now, but eventually will be general ocean/beachy and this will be perfect.  I love the rustic look.

The “Portland” warmer is discounted during the month of August and is a “While Supplies Last” kind of thing… so if you need this one, grab it while you can!!

Scentsy New Release Scents – Fall 2019


Hey guys, sorry it’s been so long since I’ve done a blog post… been super busy with life and then attended Scentsy Family Reunion in Austin, TX.  I’ll try to do another blog post with more details on that trip (it was AMAZING), but for now I wanted to get you my review on the 10 new Fall/Winter fragrances that Scentsy is putting out on 9/1/19!




Here we go….


Blood Orange Spice:  Per Scentsy, “This sweet-tart trio of Candied Apple, Blood Orange Puree and Cinnamon Stick will satisfy your autumn obsession.”  I was not expecting to love this one mainly because I don’t usually love the orange scents… but this is really nice. You can pick up the orange, but I do get the apple smell and definitely the cinnamon… and those two are heavy enough that the orange isn’t too overpowering for me.  I like it.

Brownie Batter:  Per Scentsy, “Rich, heavenly notes of Baked Brownie, Cocoa Powder and Vanilla Bean will set the stage for some serious cravings.”  I was completely expecting to LOVE this one and it disappointed me.  I usually love the bakery smells, but to me this smelled like fake cocoa… like a chocolate scratch & sniff sticker from the 80’s.

Candied Cranberry Pecan:  Per Scentsy, “Classic Cranberries and Pecans are sweetened by Sugarcane and a ribbon of Brandied Plum.”  This is nice.  I don’t LOVE it, but I don’t dislike it either.  I smell cranberries and they’re on the sweeter side… I can smell the “brandied plum”, but I’m not getting any whiff of Pecans at all and I really wanted to.

Fiddle Leaf Fig:  Per Scentsy, “A botanical haven brimming with Wild Fern, Mission Fig and hints of Crushed Rosemary and Coconut Water.”  This one is super light & fresh. Definitely botanical… wild fern for sure.  Not a favorite of mine, but if you like the lighter/fresher scents you’ll like this.

First Day of Fall:  Per Scentsy, “All the best parts are here. Just Picked Pumpkin, a breath of Autumn Woods, Ground Nutmeg and a spicy dash of Cinnamon.” It’s not as strong as I would like, but it’s VERY nice.  Not super spicy cinnamon… a nice, mellow, fall smell.  I will be getting this one!

Grapefruit & Grenadine:  Per Scentsy, “Splashes of Sparkling Grapefruit and Juicy Pomegranate are garnished with Zesty Orange Peel in the ultimate merry mocktail.”  I personally do not like this one, but I don’t like grapefruit smells.  If you like grapefruit you will LOVE this.  It smells heavy on the grapefruit with a slight kick to it.

Huckleberry Wreath:  Per Scentsy, “For the holidays or any days. Crimson Red Currant and a handful of Huckleberries brighten a wreath of Frosted Fir.”  This one is very nice… I don’t smell a ton of fir… definitely smell the berries & currants.  Not super ‘holiday’ but very nice!

I’m Snow Over It:  Per Scentsy, “You know you love it! Sage, Whispering Pine and Cedarwood bursting with Bright Berries will rekindle your winter romance.”  This is another very nice, mellow fragrance.  A tiny bit of pine, a little sweetness from the ‘bright berries’ and definitely smell the cedarwood. 

Maple Apple Bourbon:  Per Scentsy, “Juicy Red Apple and Rich Maple get in the holiday spirit with a Splash of Bourbon.”  Yes please!! This one is totally up my alley (I love the bakery scents… if it smells like you could eat it or drink it, I’m down)! You get a little bit of the apple, but this is heavy on the Maple and Bourbon scents and smells very “holiday” to me.  I’ll be stocking up on this one.

Stroopwafel Delight:  Per Scentsy, “A cozy twist on a traditional Dutch treat made with creamy Vanilla, rich Melted Butter and Cinnamon.”  This is my FAVORITE scent of the new Fall/Winter scents.  You get a little vanilla, VERY buttery and then Cinnamon.  You can almost taste the flaky/bakery in your mouth when you sniff it.  I will be stocking up on this one and it will most likely go in my Scentsy Club!

There’s my take on the new Fall/Winter scents.  As usual, there really is something for everyone.  These become available on September 1st… let me know if you need to pick some up!

Better off Wickless Warmer of the Week: 6/10/2019


Hey friends! This week we’re going to highlight one of my favorite new Mini Warmers…. “Chantilly Lace”!

Per Scentsy, “Elaborately woven florals and fine patterns in this elegant mini warmer instantly take you to the French countryside — preferably with a baguette and Brie.”

Our main bathroom is also the kid’s bathroom and it’s decorated in Green and frogs.  Right now I have a very old green mini warmer in there…. It’s just a plain basket weave looking warmer in a medium green color.  It’s cute, but it’s looking dated.  This warmer looks like the perfect replacement for it! Super cute, simple, elegant without looking fancy… I need this one in my life!

I love the cute designs and fresh/light colors of this warmer… if you need this one in your home (or if it screams the name of a friend/family member)… you can get yours here:

Better off Wickless Warmer of the Week: 5/28/2019


Hey everyone! Time to spotlight another fun warmer and this week we’re doing a bit of a “preview” as this warmer is not yet available to purchase!  Our spotlight this week will be on the “Lemonade Pitcher” warmer which is the “Warmer of the Month” for June 2019!

Per Scentsy, “This all-glass ode to a treasured summertime staple features vibrant, retro-worthy artwork for a pitcher-perfect finish.”  The warmer glows when lit, stands 6.5 inches tall and takes a 25 watt bulb.
Normally this warmer will be $55, but during the month of June it will be on sale for $49.50!

This warmer is adorable and for me takes me back to childhood! The time of running amuck in the neighborhood all day, coming home when Mom whistled out the front door, doing lemonade stands…. All that. 
It would pair very nicely with June’s “Scent of the Month” too….   “Squeeze the Day”.  This scent is described as “Pucker up lemon lovers! You’ve officially found your signature scent in this tart-and-true fragrance of pure lemons, balanced by a hint of vanilla cream.”  Squeeze the day is our new favorite scent here at the house… it smells like a tall glass of sweet lemonade, is a nice strong scent and lasts really well. Bars of “Squeeze the Day” will be on sale for $5.40 in June and are only around while supplies last, so get yours soon and if you love it, add it to your Scentsy Club Subscription!

Want to get the ambiance of Spring/Summer going in your house?  Get on my pre-order list for this warmer & wax, you won’t be sorry!!

Better off Wickless Warmer of the Week: 5/20/2019


Hey friends!  Time to spotlight another beautiful Scentsy Warmer and this week we’ll be taking a look at the “Fly Away” Warmer!



Per Scentsy, “Mosaic is a timeless look, but it’s also extremely time-consuming to create, and our mosaic designs are no exception. They’re meticulously pieced together one at a time, using over 200 individually hand-cut tiles per warmer and literally MILLIONS for the entire season. But when you see that detail come to life in a sparkling, multicolor display, you’ll know it was worth the effort.”

All of Scenty’s mosaic warmers are beautiful, but in my opinion this one truly is gorgeous! Anyone who’s a butterfly lover or a fan of mosaics needs this warmer in their life! If you or someone you love can’t live without this beauty, you can snag yours here:
