A Little Scentsy Q & A

What is a Scentsy Bar and where is it made?

A Scentsy Bar is a small block of fragrant wax that comes in eight break-apart sections. Using a high-quality, custom paraffin wax blend selected for its superior scent loading capability; melting point and firmness, Scentsy Bars produce some of the most vibrant fragrances possible. Scentsy manufactures all wax products at its headquarters in Meridian, Idaho.

That means it's made in the USA!!! Hmmmm wonder where Wal Mart and BB&B wax is made?

What temperature does the wax melt at?

Scentsy Bars in Scentsy warmers melt at 125 degrees Fahrenheit – the temperature of a typical paraffin cosmetic dip. 

Do Scentsy Bars contain harmful phthalates?

Scentsy Bars do not contain or release harmful phthalates.  However, a small percentage of Scentsy Bar fragrances contain  extremely low levels of non-harmful diethyl phthalate (DEP) which  is commonly used in fragrances to help blend ingredients and to make fragrances last longer. DEP is thoroughly tested and is consistently regarded as safe for use in fragrance by several government bodies including the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the European Union Scientific Committee on Consumer Products (SCCP). Scentsy follows all safety standards regulating the use of DEP set by the International Fragrance Association (IFRA). DEP has a reputation for creating suspicious byproducts when burned, but because Scentsy Bars are melted, not burned, the combustion that causes such byproducts doesn’t occur.
