    So glad I watched this. Didn't know to add water, and didn't think to put a coaster under the burner but both make sense when you think about it.

      What makes it worst is not only was we wasting our money by burning just the oils- bottles finishing much faster, we werent even getting the full therapeutic effect because heat destroys the Molecular structure of the the plant oils that supposed to stimulate your olfactory nerve.
      The water helps to still keep structure intact while evaporating

    • @CarvedCulture

    • @CarvedCulture
      @CarvedCulture  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That is a great question, typically essential oils are highly concentrated plant compounds that are obtained from leaves, bark, and flowers. They are very potent and should be used with caution, it's recommended to avoid contact directly with the skin unless mixed with a carrier oil, it should be diluted in an oil burner, etc. Massage oils however have already been mixed with a carrier and are composed of different ingredients, they can be made with natural essential oil but sometimes contain fragrance oils which are synthetically made. The types of essential oils found in massage oils are normally oils that promote relaxation 😊

      @CarvedCulture  ปีที่แล้ว

      Mixing essential oil with coconut oil sounds like a good idea but not sure how safe it is? How was it? Did it start to burn? If so the oil would break down and start to smoke. If not you could probably add it with more essential oil after the scent has gone but you should not reuse the coconut oil for anything other than for use with the oil burner as it could be harmful. To be honest though, I don't know about using coconut oil, it might go bad.... I will have to experiment and get back to you 😊

    • @CarvedCulture
      @CarvedCulture  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can top it up with more essential oil but should be careful because it is flammable, and adding too much could be dangerous or harmful to health. If you are sure that the essential oil has evaporated then you could add a few more drops; the scent should last up to 2 hours in the room although you will get used to the smell, we would recommend only using the oil burner for a maximum of 4 hours.

    • @CarvedCulture
      @CarvedCulture  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi!! Yes, it's normal for the candle's heat to intensify the fragrance of essential oils without boiling or burning them, as they should evaporate to spread their aroma. For burning time, you can begin with 15-30 minutes and adjust to your liking and room size, but please supervise the burner when it's on. Let me know if you have any more questions! :)

      Sounds like a horrible idea, don't do it!

    how long does it take for the room to smell?

    • @CarvedCulture
      @CarvedCulture  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      That very much depends on how much oil you use, the size of the room, and how big your oil burner. Based on average use and using a strong smelling essential oil like Lavender, Citrus or Eucalyptus the room will take on the smell within a few minutes.

    Would've been nice to get an actual ratio of oil to water instead of "a few drops" and "a bit of water"
    Seems simple enough to do though. I'll just try a few things and see what works best.

    • @CarvedCulture

      Apologies for this, it was our first oil burner video and before you go ahead and try I would highly recommend watching this video first as it explains the ratio that you asked about but also some of the potential risks with not using an oil burner correctly: th-cam.com/video/XPblYxR6bDM/w-d-xo.html

    😂 I tried doing this for the first time and I didn't realise you were supposed to add water, the oil started smoking and i ran for water and now it's fine.

      I’m glad you found the video useful ☺️

    I poured the whole bottle on the burner and had nothing, evaporated quickly. I didn't know that you're suppose to add water!!!!!

    • @CarvedCulture
      @CarvedCulture  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      That is so lucky that it didn’t catch fire, essential oil is highly flammable, you only need about 3-5 drops of essential oil with water. The scent will diffuse slowly and will last longer 🙏

    can u keep this in a cupboard to make clothes smell fresh

    • @CarvedCulture
      @CarvedCulture  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You can't keep it in a cupboard as it would be a fire risk but you could burn essential oils in the same room that clothes are to make them smell nice.

      you can use fragrance sachets or put some pot pourri in a drawer to make your clothes smell nice

      Hey, it is an oil burner that can be used for essential oils or wax melts :)

    Welp, I wish I watched this before trying to do it on my own, cuz I poured a ton of oil in and now it's smoking and burning 👍👍👍👍

    How long it last, both the candle and the oil each time?

    • @CarvedCulture
      @CarvedCulture  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Both factors depend on which wax is used in the candle and the size of the wick. Candles usually state their specific burning time on the package and with the essential oil it is recommended to only diffuse the oil for 30 to 60 minutes at a time. Hope this helps.

  • @kaiboi27
    @kaiboi27 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    That candle is to big you don’t want the flame to be to high that it touches the base.

    • @CarvedCulture
      @CarvedCulture  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You are right; the wick definitely needed trimming, it's also one of the main causes for soot to build up.

    Has no one ever managed to make a stove from metal candle burner

    • @CarvedCulture
      @CarvedCulture  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thats a great question although, I could imagine that you would need lots of candles to be able to produce enough heat to cook something and the toxicity from burning lots of candle wicks could be high and potentially leak into the food

    Why add water 🤔 just use a humidifier

    • @CarvedCulture
      @CarvedCulture  3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Cool idea, however a humidifier has a larger body of water and would not exactly disperse the essential oil. Instead it would make the rooms humidity go up

    Why use an expensive flower candle !! Not that STUPID..... 😜

    • @CarvedCulture
      @CarvedCulture  หลายเดือนก่อน

      The flower candles we used to sell are pretty but beeswax candles are much better as they burn for longer, contain no paraffin and are natural 😊
