I found something special this summer when I visited the California Mid State Fair! Heaven Scent sells aroma crystals in a variety of scents. They are inexpensive, last a long time, and go where candles cannot. This makes them a much better deal than candles.
These aroma crystals are made from salt, that has been infused with blended oils that have a fragrance. This makes them a green product, made from very natural ingredients. I am a person who suffers from severe allergies, especially if I encounter scented products. However, I have managed to find several different kinds of aroma crystals from Heaven Scent that do not make me sneeze, or have any other kind of allergic reactions. I’ve been using their cucumber melon scented crystals in my car for about a month now, with no difficulties. Finally, a scented product that I can safely use!
Many of their scented crystals smell like food. My favorite is the cucumber melon scent, but they also have cinnamon vanilla, lemon, cherry, peppermint, pina colada, and more. Choose from flower scents like rose, lilac, or lavender vanilla, to name a few. Looking for something different? Try Ocean Mist, Secluded Rain, or Misty Woods. There are even crystals designed to remove the oder of cigarette smoke. Check out their website to see all the different kinds of scents.
You can get a bag of 35 to 40 aroma crystals for just $7.00, or buy two or three bags for an even better deal. I have a six ounce glass jar of crystals, that contains about 35 to 48 crystals, and cost just $8.00. Again, you can save a little more if you buy two or three jars at one time. They last a long time! You can put the bags of crystals into your freezer to keep them fresh until you are ready to use them. Each crystal is heat activated. Just put them into the sun to release the fragrance. When they start to lose their scent, you can re-activate them by adding a little water to them, and placing them into your microwave for a few minutes. You can purchase right from their website. At the fair, I was given a code to use that I will share. Use the comment keyword: BO when you place your order.
These crystals are a much better deal than candles because they last so much longer than candles do. Once you burn down a candle, that’s it. It is no longer useful. The crystals can be re-used. Candles have to sit on a flat surface, but these crystals go anywhere! I have a little sachet bag of them in my car, and it makes my car smell great! Crush a few crystals into a hot bath for an instant aromatherapy session. Place a few crystals into smelly shoes, trash cans, or diaper pails and they will help remove the odors.
