The Oil Burner …
Use up to six drops in your Oil Burner with water or soy wax. If you use water, start with warm water, this saves time for the candle to warm the water first, don’t let the dish run dry, they can crack and break. If using Soy Wax just make sure you don’t add too much as it may overflow when melted. After use the wax will set solid, next use the heat source will melt the wax ready for your next use. I prefer wax because it saves water running out and having to get more water each time, the downside is the wax will discolour depending on the Oils you’re using.
Same for your Vapouriser or our Aroma Domes, use up to six drops.
If you’re blending, still only use a maximum of six drops, try Grapefruit and Rosemary, try your own ratio. Experiment. Play.
Please Note … Using an Oil Burner for the first time is very exciting but before you can start, you need to know how to use it safely. Oil burners can get very hot and so you should ensure to put it on something heat-resistant so that you do not burn your surfaces. You should check for possible hazards nearby, moving all flammable items away. Once your candle is lit and is placed underneath you should not touch it, otherwise you may burn your hand.
Do not leave the bowl to go completely dry with the candle lit otherwise you may get a burnt aroma, and smoke. You should never take any essential oils orally and should always keep them out of reach of children. If swallowed seek medical help immediately. Never leave lit candles unattended.
Fill up the Bowl on top of the oil burner with water and then add a few drops of the essential oil of your choice to the water. Alternatively, you can place our Soy Wax Melts.
Place a lit Tealight Candle underneath, this will cause the water and oil mix to vaporise / evaporate causing the aromas to fill the room. Enjoy the aroma and any health benefits that come with it!
How to Clean My Oil Burner … After use, they should be cleaned but only after it has completely cooled down to avoid the risk of burning yourself as these can get extremely hot from just a little candle. To remove the Oil residue, use a little cooking oil on a paper towel, oil cleans oil. However, if you need to clean thoroughly use a damp cloth and a few drops of washing up liquid detergent. If it has stubborn burnt oil you may need to use baking powder and water to help rid of the residues. Avoid using a metal scourer as it may damage the oil burner. Just keep watch to ensure the dish doesn’t burn dry.
