You got through lots of nice things! I agree, the BBW gel is less drying than the foaming hand soap. I also prefer to be cold vs too hot and enjoy sweaters. 😊
Wonderful warming. I like to turn my warmers off and when the wax cools I lift and pinch it out. I like playing with it. 😂😂😂 I also use cotton clean ups or a half paper towel to soak up the wax if I'm impatient.
@@LeticiaWorboys yes, I love being able to peel my Scentsy out but that method doesn’t work with my vendor wax. Although I heard it does with KAEs. I need to try that and see if it works. When I’m impatient I’ll do the same and just soak it up like you do.
I usually only change my wax midday if I am home for most of the day and cannot smell it anymore. Otherwise I just change it in the mornings. I use wax warmer liners because they make it so easy to change wax!
Happy Monday, Martha ☕️ great warming! Call Ripley’s, because I did not do second & spruce’s pre-order. Using what I have. Over summer … ready for Hurricane season to be over. Have a fabulous day 🫶🏻
I hope the weather hasn't been too too bad. Yes, I skipped S&S. I will have serious FOMO when the hauls start popping up, but I'm glad I did it. This way I can truly enjoy what I have and I feel better about making a dent in my stash
I'm so excited for you. I love her wax so much. It was a tough choice but now I get to enjoy the wax I purchased from S&S last year. I hope you love her wax as much as I do.
Love seeing what you warmed! You got through a lot in a week, NICE! I only to vanilla walnut in my bedroom because I love it and find it to be such a beautiful bedroom scent! I do both hot pour and cotton balls, depends on my mood lol. I did warm the soul too, OMG it was beautiful! I can't wait to warm the deer camp that you sent me. You are right, it is such a unique scent! Next time she offers it I'm definitely going to grab it, as long as it performs for me. Great warming week bestie! 💜💜
Great melting! When I’m reviewing a scent I let it go until it dies its scent death ☠️ or lasts for 3-5 days. When Im melting there are some scents I like for the first few hours and then tire of so I change those out. I also will change wax as my mood changes but I have strategies in place to keep wax that still has life in it. 😂 also, I’m beginning to understand I may be a seasonal melter who just never lets go of fall and my favorites. 😂
I love Fall and Winter but can't see myself warming pumpkin in July...maybe winter scents. Peppermint scents I could do all year round. You are a good reviewing, keeping a scent in until it's final days.
Usually change out scent in open area/ kitchen daily. However last week I had Fall Feelin going all week in living room, it lasted! Of course I only turned the warmers on when I got home from work. I hot dump, cotton ball and also do the pinch up method which is my favorite (works well for Scentsy). Happy Monday and great empties! 😊
I change my wax when I can't smell it. But only if I'm gonna be in that room /area. I previously only used cotton balls but now for upstairs I have these metal tins that I use to exchange wax. I cannot hot pour cuz the warmer gets way too hot and burns my fingers. When I switch out the metal tins I wear a glove 😅
Of course Hayden Rowe announced a RTS will be coming at somd point this year. Depends on scent and financial cause I do still have quite a bit of her wax Im working through. Mostly souffles but a few loaves.
Never ordered Second and Spruce and missed SB RTS yesterday and when I looked all Lavender cream puffs and Lavender and milk and cookies were gone. Oh well.
Good morning! We have a nice cool week here in SoCal so I’m excited! Hopefully it’ll help all the fires we have right now. I hot pour my wax into the trash. I’ve always done that since I started melting in 2016. It’s just quicker and easier for me.
I hot pour mine in a plastic take out soup container. I don't hot pour always, it just depends on where I am and if the container is nearby. Your trash must smell pretty good!
The only thing I didn't like about the silicone ones is that they flake. I don't know why. I have metal ones I use on my hot plates and if I have the parchment paper baking cups, I will use those with my Scentsy warmers. I mix it up, depending on level of effort, what I have handy or if I remember to put it in a cup😁
I hot dump into my silicone cupcake liners or aluminum egg tart tins and it makes life so much easier. Great melting week Martha! I will definitely be grabbing a brittle of Warm the Soul in the next preorder 😊
Great warm review, Martha! And I’m so proud of you for skipping the S&S preorder. You are doing great! We had a little warm up here, so I’m switching between summer scents and fall scents. I’m not quite ready for full blown fall. 😅
@@JustJenny2023 I’m loving the weather right now. I don’t need a sweater yet but it’s not hot either. Just perfect. I may slip in a summer scent or two next week as we slip back into Summer weather early next week. Happy melting!
I let the wax go until I can’t smell it anymore. I do hot pour and cotton calls just depends on the day. 😂 Yes I went in for the preorder with second and spruce. Good job for holding off. 👏👏👏 I know that was a hard decision. I melted Oregon Autumn I really enjoy this scent. It gave me fresh autumn vibes. 🍁 I am working on putting a dent in my Rose Girls as well, I have so so so much. Yeah free shipping used to get me, but I am not going down that rabbit hole again. 😂 great empties Martha.
@@thefragrancefairy thanks Aubrey. I’m making a dent one wax melt at a time. 😆 Although I’ll have FOMO when I start to see the haul videos, I feel really good about skipping this preorder. It gives me some breathing room to enjoy what I have.
@@Martha_FragranceCorner I just started my no buy I am going to make it official and announce on my channel next week to keep me accountable. I need to do the same make room and breathe again. ❤️
You are going hard core with a no buy. That's fantastic. I'm not on a no buy but I've skipped many preorders that normally I woudn't have skipped. Once it passes it actually feel good. We all have plenty of wax. Good for you! You can do it!
@@Martha_FragranceCorner yeah I struggle right before the preorders open and after they close I am okay with my decision. It will feel really good when I am no longer overwhelmed with my collection and I just need to keep reminding myself of that. We got this. 💪🏻
Your home must smell amazing with all the wax you melted through. I’ve been melting a chopped up BBW Cranberry Woods candle in the morning and Yankee Autumn Wreath wax melts in the evening…they are both so beautiful for fall, IMO. I don’t have any vendor wax leftover since I’m not buying any this year, so I don’t mind going through the steps to chop up favorite BBW candles (I don’t like the burn quality) which work great as melts and I prefer the fragrances to anything vendor I tried. I could just crock them, but I like spacing out the melting rather than all at once.🍎
I should probably chop up some of my candles, especially the ones I've had for a few years now. I do like to light one for the ambiance every once in a while but I agree that they do not burn as well.
I didn't club vanilla walnut and kiind of regret it. I get toasted vanilla and pistachio from bbw now if I want a toasty/nutty vanilla. It's different- pistachio instead of walnut- but is kind of the same vibe. If bbw follows the same schedule as last year then it should be coming back pretty soon!
@@Martha_FragranceCorner Girl just go in and check/make note of what you like and then order it online to pick up in store whenever they go on sale... Everyone kind of waits for the $9 sale but a LOT of the time they're maybe $12-14 and then if you throw a 20% coupon on there then it's basically the same price without all the craziness of the sale-time visit. They do change inventory a lot, but not so often that you can't get an idea of what you want before it's gone! I like their pumpkin bonfire one too for this time of year- kind of clovey/smokey and ages well-. I just pop some wax out to melt...don't burn them.
@@Martha_FragranceCorner I mean not just a few weeks. I mean a long time. I have to continue to melt at least 70 a month and not bring more in and if I do it will have to be for a good reason, not much and have to be on one longer. I'd like to do a year no buy honestly.
I hot pour usually. I need to try the cotton ball method again because it seems like it’d be neater. I think I wasn’t using a good brand last time because the cotton barely absorbed the wax. What brand do you (or anyone that wants to answer 🙂) use?
I have been using Swisspers but I feel they are not as good as they used to be. I need to try the jumbo ones from Target. I typically have to use three cotton balls ay once to soak up one or two warmers (depends on the amount of wax)
I love switching out my wax! I use cotton balls.
You got through lots of nice things! I agree, the BBW gel is less drying than the foaming hand soap. I also prefer to be cold vs too hot and enjoy sweaters. 😊
Me too!
Great warming!!! ❤

I had been using parchment paper baking cup liners and those were nice, but I need to buy more.
I always clean out with cotton balls as they then make great fire lighters so even less waste :)
I miss having a fireplace. That is such a great idea!

It's so funny when you walk by someone in public and recognize the bbw scent 😅
😁
I did go in on the s&s pre order only because I've never ordered from her yet so I'm pretty excited and I got a good variety too
I'm so excited for you. I love her wax so much. It was a tough choice but now I get to enjoy the wax I purchased from S&S last year. I hope you love her wax as much as I do.
@@Martha_FragranceCorner I've heard nothing but great things. I'm on a very low buy now and I'm going to enjoy all my stash too for a while 🥰
Oh I love those ❤❤❤😍😍👌🩵🩵🩵
Hello 👋🏻 Nice scents Martha! ❤
Hi Tammy! Thank you
Great warming week. Im still trying to work on more Summer while its so hot out.
I change mine out every morning and then again sometimes in the evening too. I mostly use the hot pour method 😅
I'm pretty similar. Most days twice a day but it also depends on the scent.

yes, leaves and beach nights together is great. i just did a blend this week of the two bc of this blend from Travis.
Yes! I love it

I do too but if I had to rank them spearmint is at the bottom😁

I love Scentsy wax for that reason. I just take my little spatula and lift up.
Thanks Martha for keeping me company while I put out my Fall warmers. Hope you have a great week!
Hey Susan. I hope you have a great week as well!
Hi Martha!
Hey Travis! Thanks for popping by

Of course Hayden Rowe announced a RTS will be coming at somd point this year. Depends on scent and financial cause I do still have quite a bit of her wax Im working through. Mostly souffles but a few loaves.
I've only tried a wax or two from Hayden Rowe. I thought she stopped doing wax melts and decided to stick with just candles?
@@Martha_FragranceCorner we all missed her and she missed us too and while she will mainly be doing candles when she can she will be doing an RTS.
Never ordered Second and Spruce and missed SB RTS yesterday and when I looked all Lavender cream puffs and Lavender and milk and cookies were gone. Oh well.
So sorry you missed SB yesterday. Her lavender is beautiful

I feel like I'm going through so many cotton balls. I should hot dump more often but then I'm using up paper towels to wipe them clean🤷🏻♀️
@@Martha_FragranceCorner when I got dumped I normally use one cotton ball for 2-3 warmers to wipe them out

Excellent job sticking to your wax goals. I ordered from Second & Spruce and skipped Teddy Bees.
Nice! I did the opposite.😁 I probably should've skipped Teddy Bee's but I couldn't Now I need to start warming what I have.
I love that smell good shop apple ❤️ I finished scarlet witch recently too
I have to say she has a good apple oil
