My very best friend started selling Scentsy and hinted to me all the time that I should sell it too. I just couldn't do it. With a limited variety of things for sale I just can't see it being a very lasting business. It seems too much like a fad. For anyone who sells it, I wish you the best of luck...especially my friend!

Now, as for the Scentsy products...

Small plug-in warmers: They are warmed with a nightlight. The unit is a bit larger than I had expected but it still looks good and works very well. However it does get hotter than the larger warmers. Average: $15

Large Warmers: They are warmed with a small appliance bulb. Out of the 3 different ones that I have gotten they don't get nearly as warm as the outlet warmer. The dish can hold more to make the scent stronger if you would like. I held my finger in the hot wax right above the bulb on a warmer that had been lit for 3hrs for 1 full minuet and didn't get burned. Note: the wax feels great on the skin! It reminds me of the hand waxing kits but better!!! Average: $30

Wax: It's offered in several scents that change every so often and you can get them in block size (2.4oz) or a brick (16oz) You can place one or a few chunks of the wax in the warmer trays (depending on how strong you want the scent to be) and when you are done with that scent (and it still has a scent to it) you can just pour the wax back into the plastic containers to use again at another time. Average $5 (2.4oz) $20 (16oz)

Room Sprays: They come in most of the same scents as the wax. They are an oil. (My kids were messing with the bottle and when it fell to the floor I had a big mess to clean up! also the top is a twist on/off) They do smell good but the scent doesn't seem to linger as long as I would like it to. Average: $8

Car Candles: They are about the size of a cookie and have a very strong scent, you don't want to open them up all the way right at first. Average: $3

Note: There is a new tin out that I have not gotten to try yet. Average: $5

I forgot to add that they smell great and do a wonderful job of getting rid of pet odors!
