Can I use essential oils in my electric wax warmer?
A: Yes, it’s not a problem, the wax melts to the same level as the oils you are putting in. Some people mix the wax cube while it is dissolving with aroma therapy oil to get the smell they like. So, instead of using the wax cubes, which contain who knows what kind of chemicals and only masks odors, you can use essential oils and diffuse them into the air with your wax warmer.Tips for These Wax Melts I recommend sticking to stronger oils like peppermint, cinnamon, and most of the tree ones. Subtler essential oils do put good stuff into the air, but because their fragrance is lighter, it’s harder to smell. You may need to add more or less based on the type of essential oil.You love the idea of aromatherapy but might not have a dedicated diffuser. So, you look at your electric wax warmer and wonder, Can I just add essential oils to this instead? That’s a great question, and it’s where a lot of people get confused. The quick answer is yes, you can use essential oils with a wax warmer.With essential oils, the scent can be inconsistent. When heated by a candle flame, their chemical composition can degrade, reducing the strength of the scent.
