Hey Y'all! Welcome to my channel, The Scents Lady! My name is Melissa Shue and I'm an Independent Scentsy Consultant from North Carolina.
I've been a consultant since 2017 and love talking about Scentsy! Here you will find order hauls, Scentsy Club hauls, empties, Scentsy tips and tricks I've learned over the years, and just general/other random info. Good or bad, you'll always hear my honest opinion. I was also a wedding photographer for 12 years, so I love all things photography too! I'm also a new cat mom to my sweet, but sassy, Luna.
I hope you'll subscribe and click the bell for future content notifications!
I'm with Chris! I was watching Natalie and found your channel. That warmer is so adorable. Seems like it's similar to Cute as a Butron warmer. Getting the bulb in and out of that warmer is not easy. What a cute idea with all the colorful bulbs.
Thank you so much for finding my channel. I'm so thankful to her for shouting me out! That was so sweet of her! 🥰 Good to know about the Cute as a Button warmer. I don't have that warmer yet. Thanks so much for watching and commenting! 💜💕
@Dazzling_scents_with_chris thank you so much for subscribing! 🎉 That was so sweet of her!! 🥰 She made me feel so honored and I really appreciate her. I'm definitely a new subscriber of hers as well! I see that you have videos, too! I'll definitely subscribe, and I can't wait to watch your videos as well. Thanks for subscribing, watching and commenting! 💜💕
@kellieellis6889 thank you! I'll have to remember that! This particular diffuser shade definitely needs something to help seal that glitter in place, lol 🤣 Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
@PamNorton aww thank you Luna is my precious, sweet girl, just can be a handful lol 🤣 The Snowman warmer is adorable in person! When you get him I hope you enjoy him! ☃️ Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
The wizarding world is my husbands favorite scent!!! We keep this bar around… it smells wonderful! It is somewhat masculine, but it’s relaxing and I don’t know why, but it is soothing
@cmobannon yes! That one is such a fantastic Bar that I don't hear a lot of people talking about! It always performs so well for me, and I love the scent! It is soothing and relaxing and just wonderful! 💜💕
Is there a warmer size I should look for when wanting to cover an open area? We have a tinier home so I didn’t think I would need anything large, but apparently I do. And which scent seems to have more lasting time? Thank you!
@cmobannon yes, the warmer size does matter, especially if you only want to use 1 or 2 warmers. The ceramic, 25-watt warmers usually work the best for me. 7 of my favorite warmers that aren't really seasonal, that can be used year round, are Etched Core, Alabaster, Salerno, Golden Meadow, Sunset Sands, Polar Panorama and Constellations. If you want more of a fall seasonal warmer, these are all fantastic: Deep Roots, Boo Crew, Tangled Web, Fall Sweet Fall, Sunflower Fields, Disney Mickey Mouse Jack O'Lantern, Disney Hocus Pocus, and Pumpkin Sparkle. If you want a holiday/Christmas themed warmer, these warmers work perfectly: WB Holiday Marquee, Radiant Beams, and Merry Little Christmas (FULL SIZE WARMER - NOT THE MINI ONE). If you prefer an element warmer that does not light up at all, I personally think the Diamond Milk Glass or Aloe Vera Warmers work great! These are just some warmers that I personally have used regularly that I know work great, even though I'm sure there are plenty of others that perform well too! For scents, it really just depends. Scents that work great in my home may be different in another home. But I will say these (currently available) Bars never let me down and always perform the best and last the longest: Autumn Hearth, Cinnamon Pinecones, Very Snowy Spruce, Peaks & Pines, Cranberry & Cardamom, Arctic Kiss, Jammy Time, Harry Potter: Wizarding World, Vanilla Chestnut, Forever Fall, Christmas Cottage, White Pumpkin & Driftwood, and Frosted Cedar. Clothesline and Mystery Man are also strong, powerful Bars that last a long time, I just don't personally warm those scents very much. I hope that helps! I'll try to do videos at some point in the future about best performing warmers and best performing Bars. Thanks so much for watching and commenting! 💜💕
Jersey Shore Living gave you a big shout out today!🎉 Video is: Huge Scentsy Fall Party Closeout🥳Featuring Disney Signature Treats🧁Fall I totally agree with her!!🌺🌸🌺
@staypositive0503 thanks again for letting me know. She's so sweet! Im watching her video now! I subscribed to her! I feel so honored she mentioned me lol. 🥰
👚👕I always see people in cute scentsy tops but never see them in consultant store. Only the basic grey & black hoodies. Now I know I'll look early in the year. The orange one was my fav. Its Halloween esk & I'm not really into halloween but that orange was the perfect Autumnal orange spice color & the sleeve detail was so cute. Probably a different design next year but I'll be looking. Enjoyed the vid.
Yesss they always put them in the store early and up until this year I've always missed them, too! Hopefully, you can grab some next year!! I wish they would offer more cute apparel throughout the year! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
☃️ Thanks for doing this w/the colored bulbs. I use colored bulbs in my warmers often. 💡💜Note about the purple bulb- after a couple weeks of regularly having any warmer on( mini or full size) the purple bulb DOES get BRIGHTER. The heat dissipates the color at the top. Almost like it wears off the color at the top in a circle. The warmer then glows purple in the body but will be clear or very bright lilac at the top. I've noticed this a number of times in various warmers & looks very pretty. I currently have a purple bulb in whoot & whoot jr but it really shows up(after a week or so) in the FALL SWEET FALL warmer( the new brown glass warmer w/etched frosted type leaves) based on your back drop I think you'd really like it. I'm an Autumnal decor person not Halloween but I like the purple bulbs in some of my Fall warmers & Easter. Just found you & I'm subscribing. Go luck w/ your channel.
Aw, thank you for the sweet comments! Thanks so much for letting me know about the purple bulb! I have used purple bulbs in my warmers, but I don't usually use the purple bulbs all year, just seasonally. That's good to know!! Thanks so much for subscribing, watching, and commenting! 💜💕
I totally agree that is a design flaw and I’m disappointed in Scentsy’s response. I am glad people are leaving honest reviews on the website. Thank you for sharing your experience! ❤
I was holding out hope Scentsy would take care of this issue and do something for everyone who purchased it, but I'm pretty disappointed they still haven't. Yes, thankfully, the reviews on the website are showing up now, so I hope that at least helps people know about the design flaw before they buy it! Thanks so much for watching and commenting! 💜💕
@staypositive0503 it works absolutely amazing with 4 pods! It scents my whole open concept without any other pods or warmers on! But strength really depends on the scent of pods you use. For example: Autumn Hearth Pods or Forever Fall are really strong and do fantastic but the Farmstand Pumpkin Pods don't do as great in my opinion. 💜💕
When I first met my husband, he wasn’t a huge cat person. Well now he loves my cats and gives them treats every night before before bed LOL. Luna will win his heart over at some point…you’ll see lol 💜 Your cat is the most beautiful color!
@maggieberto6601 aww that's so sweet your husband gives them treats every night!! My husband will play with Luna and give her attention, but he's just used to dogs. Our dog that we lost a couple of years ago was just the most affectionate, sweet boy. He wanted to be with us 24/7 and always listened to anything we said. I know my husband just misses that companionship..and as I'm sure you know, cats just choose when they want to listen. Luna is only affectionate on her own terms and really specifically pushes his limits sometimes. I find it quite hilarious. 😂🤣 I swear she understands our conversations sometimes. Thank you for watching and complimenting my sweet Luna. 💜💕
I like the blue bulb the best. I have the Snow Cute Snowman from last year, and I love him. Luna is beautiful! My husband wasn’t a cat person either 😂. He ended up loving them, and we have a beagle too-who is very vocal. My house feels so drab and bare after taking down the Christmas decorations. We go from Fall decorations to Christmas decorations, and everything is so colorful. I’m going to rethink my winter decorations for after Christmas this year.
@kimberlyvieira2133 Snow Cute Snowman was such an adorable warmer from last year! Thank you! Luna is definitely sweet, but she can be wild and a handful. She does keep it interesting and makes me laugh daily though, lol. 🤣 Aw, beagles are so precious! My husband gets along with Luna but would much prefer a dog lol. Yes, after Christmas, I get so depressed when I take down the tree and decorations! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
Oh my gosh, I wish I was getting your sniffs! 😂😂😂 Churro So Sweet, on cold, I get jalapeno pepper, strong on the back, slight on the front! It's terrible! Glazed Almond Dreams, on cold, I get rubbing alcohol, strong on the back. The other three seem to be ok. I will warm them and hope they change for the better. Initially, I'm disappointed. Shannon 😊
@smileshan1000 I really think there's something going on with the Glazed Almond Dreams. I've heard some people say they get a chemical smell and others think it's beautiful like mine. I'm thinking it's a batch issue, maybe. It warms absolutely beautiful. I hope scentsy gets it worked out because I want to reorder more, but I don't want the rubbing alcohol ones lol 🤣😂 Churro So Sweet is just all around not for me. I still smell a green peppery type smell. But I can see how someone would say jalopenos! I really hope the Almond one changes for you on warm! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
I love the Christmas cookie bar!!! I just wish it was stronger on warm. Maybe the cookie note will come out more with cure time. The blue bulb is very cute
@LeticiaWorboys I want to love it! I guess I was hoping for more gingerbread, but if it gets stronger with cure time or smells more like gingerbread or cookies, I'll keep it in my club! It's definitely unique. I'm so glad you love it!! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
@tammytolbert5499 the new bars of this scent that I received in this kit - I can barely smell anything. They are very light. But the one that I have had since the beginning of October from my Whiff Box smells better. I think they definitely need some time to cure! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
@@kristinesscentscene9421 me too! I love the pods more than the bar! They are definitely way more fruity than bakery! I wasn't expecting the pods to smell so different!
@kristinesscentscene9421 me too! It's absolutely gorgeous with the blue in person! 💙☃️ I can't wait to decorate with him lol. Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
@KiaraLemmone it surprised me! It was sooo pretty in person! 💙☃️ I'll definitely keep a blue bulb in him for when I decorate for Christmas! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
@AmandaTheWaxNerd for real! I'm so glad there's someone else out there that understands!! It really is the worst. Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
@annemarie7142 OoOoOoo that is such a good idea! 😍 I may have to do that too!! That one definitely has lots of glitter falling off!! Thanks so much for watching and commenting to let me in on the secret tip too lol 💜💕
I wish I had seen this video two days ago before I ordered this as a gift. Ugh. At least I got it 1/2 price. But yeah I don’t feel comfortable giving this as a gift.
@heatherlubash3730 oh no, I'm so sorry! This is why I've been begging Scentsy to put something on the website stating this warmer only lights up halfway! I also wrote 2 negative reviews on the website last week for this specific warmer, and neither one has been posted! It's also odd there are no other reviews for this warmer on their website. At least if they would show the reviews more people would be aware of this! But, I can only assume they are deliberately hiding the reviews. To say I'm disappointed in Scentsy about this is an understatement. I really thought they would have come up with some sort of solution, or at least acknowledge the issue by now. I hope you'll consider calling Scentsy to at least voice your disappointment even if you decide to keep it 😕 Sorry this happened, but I do appreciate you watching and commenting! 💜💕
@heatherlubash3730 I don't know that they deliberately are but I wrote 2 negative reviews and neither are visible and there are no other reviews at all. So I would assume that they just aren't approving them. Very disappointing 😕
Thank you for buying and sharing the tree. It is the first time I’ve seen it and I was very curious. Does it cast a really nice shadow on the wall and would you say it’s copper?
@myhardyboys1 I wouldn't say it casts a shadow, but the warmer puts off a lot of light. The glitter sleeve on the inside helps it to not be a blinding light, but it still lights up my whole small bathroom in the dark. Yes, I would say it is a copper medal. It's really beautiful! If you want a tree warmer that casts a gorgeous shadow on the wall I would get the Forest Light Warmer! That one casts a gorgeous shadow!! Hope that helps! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
@@Imar5d I agree! I'm glad you knew about the issue and passed on it to avoid disappointment! It's just sad it was designed that way and that Scentsy still hasn't done anything about it. Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
Great haul!! I have the same large warmers and I love them!! I’m sad about the recall on the Sunflower Bouquet warmer! It’s very beautiful and one of my favorites! You can definitely find lots of goodies in the clearance section and gems in the exclusives section!! Thanks for sharing your haul!!🌺🌸🌺 25:14
@staypositive0503 I was sad to hear about the recall, too! I personally don't have that warmer but was considering getting it. 😕 Yes, clearance is my FAVORITE, lol. I'm hoping for a flash sale soon with maybe more dish soap lol 🤣😂 Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
Great empties. I love Jammin Jubilee, and I will melt scents during the winter for a pick me up from the weather. Summer goes by so fast, but the winter 🥶 seems to drag on forever in New England. My house is so hard to scent, but Sugarplumberry is a winner in my open concept. My favorite washer whiffs are-Fiji Flower and I use Jammy Time on my bedding. My husband likes Clothesline, but it is not a scent for me. Clothesline is really strong in all of the products, but I just don’t like the scent personally. I really enjoy your thorough reviews, and all of your content.
@kimberlyvieira2133 I love winter, but I wouldn't want it to drag on 😕 I can see how you would want to warm different scents to give you a pick me up! Jammin Jubilee is a perfect one!! I'll have to try the Fiji Flower whiffs! I have tried Jammy Time, and I did love those a lot, but they weren't my husband's favorite. I'm thinking about trying the Frosty Air whiffs. In wax, that scent reminds me of clothesline but not as strong, and the citrus helps calm it down some. I'm glad you're enjoying the videos! Thanks so much for watching and commenting! 💜💕
I notice on the Scentsy website it does have a picture of it half lit up...I did not see that before I ordered it or I never would have got it. I also ordered the Vintage Estate Haunted House Warmer and the cover of the wax dish (which is a piece of the roof) does not sit on the wax dish properly (the chimney of the house is in the way). I sent it back and got another one and it fits the same. So a bad year for design flaws. Expensive stuff to have these things happen.
@sharonpaynter7814 yeah the pictures on the website are still misleading because some people don't even view all the pictures before they order, and honestly, who would believe it was designed to only light up halfway lol 🤣 oh no that's so sad about the haunted house warmer! I had not heard about that! That's so frustrating. I'm so sorry. Yes, their products are more on the expensive side and usually that price is reflected in their high quality and fantastic customer service. For the most part, I love everything I receive, but I agree lately I have been disappointed about a few things. I hope they sort it all out. Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
@caitlynmarie5878 it is way more gorgeous in person than I expected! 😍 I'm glad I chose that one. If I didn't have so many fall warmers out right now, I would have definitely left that one out all year!! It's so pretty! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
@texaschic84 That sounds amazing. I can't wait to warm it again. I don't know why I forgot about that one! It smells delicious cold in the clamshell! Thanks for watching and letting me know! 💜💕
Scentsy comes out with so many nice warmers that I want to buy, but I can't get them all. I have to pick & choose. I have so many as it is. Plus some of them are expensive. I did eye that root warmer, but for now I passed on it. There has been other ones I wanted more than that one. Thanks for sharing.
I agree that Scentsy has the best dish soap! It also makes doing dishes more enjoyable since it smells so good. I bought a couple of the Frosted Night mini warmers and a couple of the full sized ones as gifts too. I kinda feel like there is gonna be a flash sale soon…maybe there will be some dish soap. I know people didn’t like Cloudberry Dreams much but man that is a good dish soap and I wish I had put that bar in my club. I miss it so much 😔
@maggieberto6601 Yes, that dish soap is heaven. It does make washing dishes a little better. lol 🤣 Oooo, I remember Cloudberry Dreams in the dish soap - it was fantastic. I wish I had more! I definitely keep waiting on a flash sale! 😍 Hopefully, they have one soon and have some dish soap on there!! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
@@2julsofmine I agree! I think most people are pretty disappointed in this warmer, as well as the way Scentsy has handled customer's disappointment after purchasing it. 😕 Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
Really enjoyed your input.. I have all the new Disney bakery scents in my club.. after your video I removed the Churro, i really appreciated your honest opinion
@cmobannon I'll always be honest! I'm glad I could help! You may still like the churro one, but it doesn't smell anything like churros. It's definitely a very strange bar. Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
I fell in love with jammin Jubilee too and its in my club. Its such a great fruity scent and u are so right about being able to smell it . I melted it in alternate warmers this past summer with sunset sky and strawberry and it was amazing!!!
@LeticiaWorboys Wow, that sounds like a fabulous mix! I'm glad I'm not the only one who loves Jammiń Jubilee! It's one of my favorite fruity bars! I really hope it makes it into the spring/summer catalog!! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
@@robinwarren6543 it really is! It needs to come back so more people can try it! I love it so much!! 😍 I'm glad you've tried it and know how good it is! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
Omg you are so right I love roasted cinnamon pear was in a holiday 3 bundle and I’ve had it in my club fo a while… I can’t believe it hasn’t come back I bbmb…. So wish it would
@onealhyatt3467 it's amazing isn't it?! I know if it came people so many people would fall in love and add it to their clubs! Hopefully it will come back one day! Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
When I watched your other video I thought right away that looked like a string of lights went out on a real tree. I agree with you that this is a design flaw and I would be extremely unhappy with this warmer. Extremely unfair that you would have to pay to ship this back.
@KiaraLemmone it is unfair. 😕 I hate it for everyone who purchased it and are disappointed. I tried to leave a review for this warmer on their website last week and they have yet to post it. There are no reviews for this warmer which is odd. If they would post the review at least people would see that and know it doesn't light up all the way! If they continue not posting bad reviews for others to see and don't acknowledge the issue in a news article I'm going to be extrememly disappointed in scentsy. I really think they should allow everyone to return them for free but at the very least they need to acknowledge the issue. Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
I would be very upset if they didn't post the review because it was negative. I think I would contact them again at that point and ask why they are not posting the negative reviews.
@KiaraLemmone yes! I'm calling tomorrow for a separate issue and I'm going to inquire about that as well! It's very frustrating. Hopefully consultant support will be more aware of the issue this time and maybe just maybe they will say they are working on a solution! 💕
@m.oakeley2578 ok, so I just went and counted. 😳 I don't know how many bars were in my club when it shipped for this video but since this video I have added so much more! So this number is super high. It will not stay this much at all because I have to do a brutal club edit before it ships in November. Right now, I have a lot of spring and summer scents that discontinued from the catalog in my club, but I'll warm all those scents and decide which ones to cut. I also just added the new Holiday brick scents. Once I warm all of these other new scents (like gingerbread cheesecake and the new Disney treats collection) I'll know which ones I love and I'll know what to eliminate and what quantity to put them all at. I can tell you right now these numbers won't be staying this high! So my main club is 193 bars right now. 😳🤭🙈 My other club has some bars for my mom and it only has like 16. So, yeah, needless to say I have lots of cutting to do and I have to make some tough decisions soon! It's always hard to say goodbye to bars in my club but I just can't keep them all! 💔 Thanks for watching and commenting..and having me count my clubs lol. 🤣
@@lisaquam6540 it's such a strange one. So many people are definitely noticing something off about that bar! I hope it warms better than it smells on cold. Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
Great empties!! You’re very informative which is helpful!! Btw, your fur baby isn’t a problem!! She sounds adorable!! Question, do you also like Sugar Cookie? I hear both of these scents a lot!! I’m thinking VB is probably richer! I have a few bars of Toasted Coconut Amaretto I grabbed during a clearance. Never had it but I love Amaretto so why not.😂 Well, the Amaretto BLEW me out the house!! What would you suggest mixing it with? Thanks for sharing & your time!🌺🌸🌺 1:00:49
@staypositive0503 thank you for the sweet comments! My cat Luna is super sweet, just into everything lol. I do like sugar cookie. It is a little on the light side in my opinion but it's good. I prefer just using vanilla bean buttercream. I would mix the toasted coconut amaretto with vanilla bean buttercream, make me snicker(doodle) or any kind of vanilla based bar like that (if you like vanilla). That amaretto is definitely a powerhouse bar! You could also mix it with something fruity if you wanted to make it fruity like black raspberry vanilla. Hope that helps. If you mix it, let me know which one works for you! Thanks for watching and commenting!! 💜💕
@@TheScentsLady thanks so much! I’m going to buy VB it sounds very thick and rich!😃I need something stronger than Simply Vanilla! Was Luna named after the bar?🤍😊She sounds adorable!! Thanks for your suggestions!!💗
@staypositive0503 Vanilla bean buttercream is rich, a great performer and a fantastic bar for mixing with about anything! Well, Luna is a solid greyish/silver cat, so I thought the name Luna was appropriate 🌜🌑, and it helped Scentsy had a Bar named Luna too! 🐈⬛️😻
@rosab7372 yay! That is good to know! It does smell like parsley! 😂 Good description lol! I've not been brave enough to warm it quite yet but I will lol. Thanks for watching and commenting! 💜💕
I just subscribed. I really enjoyed watching a video earlier so thank you for taking the time to share. Btw, I always want to know about the non wax products as well so there’s that.
@penney1307 Thank you for subscribing!! 🎉 That's good to know! I'll try to include more of the non wax products I use next time! Thanks so much for watching and commenting! 💜💕
