My oil doesn't seem to last long in my warmer?

If it seems like you're going through oil fast, it could be because your warmer is heating at too hot of a temperature. Here's a few ways to correct this:

1. If your warmer is heated by a light bulb, try going down to a lower wattage bulb. 

2. Don't keep your warmer on all the time.  This keeps the warmer very hot. Plug your warmer into a timer so the warmer only turns on during certain hours.

3. If you've been using a warmer with a warming plate for a couple years, it may be time to replace the warmer.  As these warmers get older, they tend to heat at higher than usual temperatures.

 

Can I use the oil in my reed diffuser?

Warning:

Never heat oil above 200 degrees or leave a heating warmer or diffuser unattended. Use in a well ventilated area. Keep away form children, pets and finished surfaces. Never use on skin or as a food source.
